The Time Traveler's Almanac: Update and Open Reading Period

As mentioned earlier, Ann and I have sold The Time Traveler's Almanac to Nic Cheetham at Head of Zeus (a new commercial UK publisher; US publisher yet to be announced). It's going to be a 600,000-word anthology covering about 100 years of time travel fiction. Also included will be illustrations and some fanciful nonfiction about time travel. We're excited because many of the stories we want to use have, oddly enough, never been reprinted in a time travel anthology before. We also believe this will be one of the largest time travel anthologies ever published. (Sick of the words "time travel" yet?) Publication is scheduled for next year.Although the space for unsolicited reprints will be small, we are committed to having an open reading period for The Time Traveler's Almanac. The reading period will occur sometime after the World Fantasy convention, so most likely November 15 through the end of the year. (Watch this space.) It will be for reprints only.
