I\u2019m spending the longest day of the year in a place where the sun barely sets in the summer. It\u2019s incredible to see clearly at 2am, it really brings a whole new meaning to the solstice. It\u2019s also given me more hours of bright reading light, which has been helpful in catching up with submissions. My deepest apologies to those of you who had to wait as I considered yours. Due to outside forces, it took me far longer to read through my maybe-pile this past winter than I expected, I had to extend my submission closure through spring. At last I\u2019m back on track, having whittled down my list to 10 requested fulls (for those of you wonking<\/a> out on query stats, that\u2019s just 1% of the submissions I received in the fall, mostly upmarket adult fiction). So I will be opening for the summer after the 4th of July! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also will be on faculty for two conferences this fall:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
