It&#8217;s not (strictly speaking) the pretty, perfectly-bound, error-free final product; in fact, it&#8217;s basically the same thing I sent my publishers before they began their magic; quick-and-dirty, <em>sans<\/em> copyedit, straight-from-my-brain manuscript, which pretty much means a few funny little hidden things crept in and mucked about wherever I wasn&#8217;t looking. <\/p>\n<p>(See what I did there?)<\/p>\n<p>Since then, a brilliant copyeditor has run a comb through the tangled mess, gotten things looking clever and more or less intentional, and then inexplicably let me back in to mess with it one last time. <em>That<\/em> book comes out in September. This isn&#8217;t that book. <\/p>\n<p>Still, for all its warts and hair sprouting in unlikely places, I love this version quite a lot, as it represents the first time (after far too many years&#8217; work) that I got to hold my baby with a pretty cover on and all the pages glued together in the right order. I&#8217;m certainly more than happy enough with it to send it out into the wild and let friends and strangers have a look and tell me what they think.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you like it.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I hope you love it, actually (the way I do) but even if you don&#8217;t &#8212; even if you hate it &#8212; I very much hope you&#8217;ll <em>tell<\/em> people about it, or even have me come by to talk about it myself.<\/p>\n<p>Very best,<br \/>\nDoyce<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Publication date: 8\/21\/2012 Publisher: HarperCollins Voyager ISBN-13: 9780062108111 Available at: Amazon (Trade Paperback) or (Kindle) Barnes &#038; Noble (all formats) The Tattered Cover and other Indie Bookstores near you.
