[LMB] (Chat-news) Call for Passage typos

Hi All --

    Eos, which is very beforehand this time, is asking for any typos 
spotted in the hardcover of _Passage_ to be corrected in the paperback 
edition, which is in editorial production already.  (It will be released 
in pb just before _Horizon_ comes out next February.)  Anyone who's 
spotted anything, now is the time to report in.
   
    I just sent Mike a scan of the cover for _Horizon_ to post on 
Dendarii.com, and also posted it in my MySpace pics.  As it turns out 
folks who are not MySpace members can't access the pics (I didn't 
realize this) there is much wailing and gnashing of teeth.  So it's up 
to Mike now.

    Now that the lettering is on, anyone who can is welcome to grep (is 
that the correct word for "e-lift"?) the cover scan and repost it 
wherever it would be decorative.  Ditto for the _Passage_ cover, which, 
I realize, I should still be promoting, burned out on PR as I am right now.

    The four covers make a very nice progression, reflecting the 
progressing themes of the books; from the formation of a couple to the 
formation of a family to the formation of a community.  Although the 
"community" in Book 4 is represented by what artist Julie Bell, in our 
e-mail communications on the cover-in-progress, dubbed "the little 
people", the distant trailing mob off on the right-hand side.  But at 
least they are *there*.

    bests, Lois.
