One seriously happy author...
A few minutes ago I got to e-mail Martin Millar, the world's greatest Buffy fan, the link to a review by Colleen Mondor in this month's Bookslut in which she says that he "lifts the entire oeuvre of werewolf stories up, in a manner similar to what Joss Whedon has done for vampires."
Moreover, not to be crass but we've sold more books for him in the past eighteen months than he sold in fifteen years, with four publishers (including Fourth Estate) and seven titles. It feels really damn good to find a writer the readers s/he deserves, quantitatively and qualitatively. That's the core of what publishing is, really...
I'm hoping we can keep it up with his next book, Suzy, Led Zeppelin, and Me.
