Naked City: New Tales of Urban Fantasy is (pretty much) done

[ellen_datlow]

This is the TOC in the correct order. However, one more story will be in there before the book goes into production and I'm not sure where it will appear in the anthology. This is being published by St. Martin's Press in spring 2010.

I'm "handing" (emailing the file) the book to my editor either today or tomorrow (I'm awaiting a last go over/response to edits from one writer. This one's been a bear and I'm relieved that it's done.

Wow, at least 3 people in there that I would've bought the anthology for all on their own.

You going to tell us who? ;-)

[julieandrews.livejournal.com]

Well.. since you asked. :)

My Clarion instructors, Ellen and Delia.

And Naomi Novik.

But some of the other names are good too, honest! Hence the 'at least'. :)

LOL --that's ok--I won't tell the others.

Awww.....Well, you won't be disappointed by the others, I assure you! Heady company to be in. Can't wait to read the rest! Thanks for posting this, Ellen - and be sure to let us know about the Mystery Story when it appears.

I've just emailed the ms file to my editor (yayyyyy). Yes, I will surely let everyone know once I add it to the TOC.
