Ilira did an amazing job! One may confidently assure you everyone's labors have not gone unnoticed by Herself. :cherryh: :ph43r: :cherryh: Even if Regeneration's manuscript were lost, it would not be an issue. It is on Herself's computer -- and I have an hard-copy printout of the manuscript as well. Although I don't know why there *seems* to be a delay, one speculates that galley turn-around may have been affected by the recent holidays. |

I have not been able to visit here for a few months -- another long, dreary, medical story -- but I have greatly missed the stimulating discussions and am happy to finally!! be able to return and drink from the well again. And what is one of the first things I discover? This simply marvelous, wondrous, wondrous reference work. What a great gift to all Foreigner fanatics ... such as me. My heartfelt thanks to all for all the incredible work that went into it. You folks are pretty amazing. |

Is Regeneration going to be a DAW release? I keep checking the list of Upcoming releases on the web site, but no mention of Regeneration. I wonder how long from Galley to publishing... |

Yes, CYTEEN II: REGENERATION will be published by DAW. Based on nothing more than personal observation, it seems like it is ~6-9 months from galley proofing to new book clutched in your Hot Little Hands. |

One inquired of Herself :cherryh: yesterday evening if receipt of the galleys was imminent. One regrets to report that Herself :cherryh: has heard only Deafening Silence. Nadiin, one did not discuss this with Herself, but one is wondering if DAW received multiple, impassioned entreaties, begging and pleading for CYTEEN II, that the process might be hurried along? One has no idea, but believes it can't hurt to try. Threatening to gnash teeth & rent garments might also help. If all else fails, the Guild may need to get involved. :shoot: One knows for a fact (directly from Betsy Wolheim & Sheila Gilbert during a con panel) that DAW hears from Faithful Readers these days mostly via email: clicky for DAW's site. |

Apropos to the question of when Cyteen II will appear, I thought the following partial discussion from another forum might help illuminate the publishing process for associates here:
:invert Mule, I won't start my anxious pacing until I have seen a publication date. :rofl: |

Because Herself :cherryh: hasn't posted a Progress Report since 3 Feb, I just wanted to reassure everyone that all is well. |

3 weeks + no progress report = fans dying from holding their breaths too long. |

I must admit that sometimes I get a bit concerned, but less so than I might once have been. I know that :cherryh: has elderly relatives, galleys of great length with impossible turn-around times liable to arrive at any moment, etc. Also, the normal exhaustions, discouragements and petty illnesses and trials of life (dead battery in a cold climate!). Much as I have enjoyed her daily updates of the mundane details of her quotidian existence, I can understand that it might be sometimes burdensome to keep this up when stressed. Still, I am curious about the fate of Cyteen II, an obsession of absurd degree of mine, along with Portrait of a Lady and several of Jordan's novels in which I love the details and characterization. For me, :cherryh: 's sensibility is much closer to James (like sipping Benedictine) than Jordan, however. All three novels/series are tales of growth, personal change--or sometimes inability to change--and adaptation. And as I write this, I never thought about the comparison of James and :cherryh: before. But I guess I do reveal my tastes in literature through the comparison, though I'm hardly a James scholar. |

The manuscript was sent to DAW ~Oct 3rd...and :cherryh: has yet to see the galleys, due to the vagaries of the publishing industry. One suspects they will arrive in the very near future. :baji As for Carolyn's elderly mother, now in her 90's: we are firmly convinced she is going to outlive us all! :lol: |
