Heard from my Severn House editor today and GREY MATTERS is a go! This is just a private email, and of course, she’s the editor who bought the series so she’s biased, but I cannot tell you how nice it is to read bits like “As well as a good story, it’s a fascinating and very realistic picture of the academic world with all its rivalries and politics.” Well, I’m not sure how realistic it is, but if I made it believable, I’m thrilled.

Some minor revisions to make – adding more kitty bits, I think – and then onto copy editing! Plan now is for Grey Matters to pub in the UK next Dec., which probably means US release in March 2010. Phew. A little hard to believe. And now… back to work!
