: THE ABOVE (more Swords Books) IS A LIVE PROJECT but I won't have time to seriously work on it until April or thereabouts. I will, in due course contact Jack Byrne et al. I will, probably, try to find an author relatively close by.... :cover art from one of the good, well established, pro artists in a 400 mile radius from here. Remember this is the electronic age. I only did one, in person, visit to Boston, MA while doing my bibliography. Most everything else went 3 day mail for hard copy editing, or E-mail. Also remember that Andre Norton is, in my humble opinion, one of the best editors in the business. You'll want her to read anything going out. Several of my favorite artists live in commuting distance of Atlanta. Here is one artist that lives near Orlando; Ron Walotsky. I've got his address somewhere around here. He did the Sneeze on Sunday cover. [Don Maitz is also in FL] Memory failes me for other names. I do recommend P.M. (Pauline) Griffin to write the book. She's worked with Andre before and , though she doesn't live near Atlanta, will be attending Galacticon, April 16-18 in Chattanooga. A.C.(Anne) Crispin lives in Maryland. Is that close enough? (I failed those geography courses.) But all of Andre's co-authors have made the pilgrimage to TN while writing books with The Lady (except perhaps Lyn McConchie, she's in New Zealand). I wonder if Eluki bes Shahar (AKA Rosemary Edghill) would be interested? She has written several Romance novels. You should probably contact Jerrie Adkins on Atlanta area stuff. Also (cheap plug) Jerrie does typing & editing as well general gophering.
