I shoule mention that Karen Wester-Newton, an MR member was on the panel. The other two panelists were Kathryn Sullivan and Traci Castleberry, who are not.

The Editing Game was mostly about the lack of translators for non-English works into American English. Apparently, only about 2% of published works in the US are translations. Sort of sad, really.

wow, seriously ?? only 2% ??? that's really not very much.
y'all are missing out on a lot of good stuff.

I got my picture taken to be a part of a crowd montage for a graphic novel that a group called P-Brane Publishing is doing. They take an SF script, photograph actors in various scenes, then Photoshop the Hell out of them to make the graphic novel. They have taken on the idea that if you photograph people at conventions and stick them into crowd scenes that they'll sell more books. Worked for me. I bought a copy of the first edition and will buy one of the second when it comes out...

so are they going to photoshop you into an alien, for this graphic novel ?
and more importantly, can we see the result ?
