They talk about the loneliness and solitude of Lindbergh, but I think that moment where Armstrong was piloting his lunar lander on fumes looking for a suitable landing spot, only to find one with about 7 seconds of fuel remaining is one of the most amazing moments in all of American history.

Unless that author makes it a public matter (perhaps at a con, or in their blog), nobody but the author and maybe the editor will know the author decided to give it a pass because of concerns about having a story stuck in limbo if the publisher completely tanks, rather than giving it the go-by because of lack of time due to other professional commitments, or just not being interested in the theme, or whatever.<br /><br />Even my own rethinking of my submission strategy isn't a complete abandonment, so much as a decision to shift my priorities. In the past I've put significant time and effort into writing stories specifically for the Norilana anthologies, including time spent forcing my way through problems coming up with ideas and wrestling with difficult story elements, to the point that other projects were put on hold. This year I've decided that if I have a story on hand that seems suitable, or if a story comes to me demanding to be written, I'll go for it. But if a story gets stuck, I'm not sinking hours and days into trying to force my way past the sticking point just to make a deadline. The story goes on the back burner, and if it doesn't work out in time, so be it.<br /><br />But I'm not exactly anybody with great name recognition, so my decision to make the Norilana anthologies a lower priority and A-list other projects probably just means a slight reduction in the pool of possibilities the editors have to choose from. As in they might get to decide whether to accept or reject one story instead of five or six.Tattercoatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07279927771714709106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4756379870910997408.post-54400187388308139362010-11-12T12:19:22.657-08:002010-11-12T12:19:22.657-08:00Oh Michael, I hadn't heard that you were seeki...Oh Michael, I hadn't heard that you were seeking another home either.<br /><br />Leigh,<br /><br />Authors deciding not to submit may not have much of an effect on whether readers will purchase existing titles. However, it does have a negative effect on the anthologies that are still open and looking to fill. If authors do not submit, for whatever reason, the anthologies do not fill, and one more potential market vanishes.<br /><br />Anthologies may not be the money makers that publishers would like them to be, but they are a way of growing and spotlighting new authors. How many of us sold our first stories to Sword & Sorceress or other similar anthologies? I know I did.<br /><br />Clothesline World will continue to be with Norilana. Not just because it is a joint creation between Vera and myself, but because I feel that is where it belongs. CW is currently in its open period, and I hope will fill. But it hasn't a chance of filling if no established authors are willing to submit. We need both the tried and true along with the new. Ok, that was a really bad messed up cliche, but I think you know what I mean. One of my intentions in agreeing to edit this anthology was to provide a market that encouraged the growth of new authors.<br /><br />From the beginning I have promoted all Norilana anthologies in the invitations that I send out for CW and to all potential authors I find. I will continue to do so, whether they remain with Norilana or not. Whenever I know of an open or soon to be open market, I try to pass on the news.<br /><br />I understand the reasons that several of the editors are withdrawing their anthologies from Norilana, just as I would understand if the authors who have submitted to CW decided to withdraw (though I hope they will not).<br /><br />Rochellezara elishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08854724777500470875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4756379870910997408.post-64881975488380990952010-11-10T19:18:57.112-08:002010-11-10T19:18:57.112-08:00Michael, I didn't mention that Sheherazade'...Michael, I didn't mention that <i>Sheherazade's Facade</i> was looking for a potential new home because I hadn't heard it until you mentioned it. I can certainly understand why you would be making this decision -- I'm also rethinking my plans to submit to some of the anthologies that are or will be open. At least authors deciding not to submit probably doesn't have as much of a negative effect as editors deciding to pull anthologies, since the submission process is pretty much invisible to the buyers upon whom a publisher's future depends.<br /><br />And that's the big thing -- will buyers remain confident that their orders for existing titles will be fulfilled? If plenty of people buy existing Norilana titles this Christmas season, the situation could turn around, or at least stabilize.<br /><br />I'm a bookseller, and our sales figures are giving me cause for grave concern about this Christmas season. I'm hoping that things will turn around, but sometimes it seems we live on hope.Tattercoatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07279927771714709106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4756379870910997408.post-23269060186660709262010-11-10T19:02:15.594-08:002010-11-10T19:02:15.594-08:00Leigh -

We are an organic homegrown comic company who strives to release the first dark and brutal fantasy ongoing universe in comics!<br /><br />I originally started creating the world, ASUNDA, 20 years ago in England where I was raised on LARP, Muddy Waters, and Clint Eastwood flicks! So now, I am reaching out to those who my stuff is intended for! I would love to get your feedback and ask for your support [providing you like it] to spread the word through your role-playing community, that finally there's a comic that is for the folk who are thirsting for quality tales and art, and not the corporate dumbed down crap!<br /><br />I would love to send you a complimentary PDF.copy of our first issue of "The Untamed". And if you like it enough I can send a physical copy or two for competetions and whatever fun you can think of. Hit me up on my email!<br /><br />Here is what one savvy fan has said;-]<br /><br />"What's not to love about Jones and Bergting's THE UNTAMED: it's a Sergio Leone, Frank Frazetta, William Blake fever dream mashup. And that's just where it begins!"<br />Lloyd Levin (Watchmen/Hellboy/Boogie Nights)<br /><br />All the best!<br /><br /><br />Sebastian A. Jones<br />Creator/Writer<br />"The Untamed: A Sinner's Prayer"<br />Stranger Comics<br /><br />P.S.
