(You already know this, but I thought I'd share.) Whether you're at a con or just sitting in your office going through the slush pile, you're going to run into people who just don't know what's going on no matter how many times you tell them. I edit children's and young adult fantasy. We have specifically said in many, many places that we don't publish picture books. About 80% of my slush pile? Picture books. Recently I got a postcard from someone who I must have sent a "thanks, but no thanks--we only publish MG/YA fantasy" form letter to. It said, "Thank you for your kind reply in requesting fantasy from me, but that's one area I don't write."
Uh. Okay.
But I wanted to say thanks for the P&L post from last month. A friend linked to you today, and it was interesting to see a concise review of the subject so well-explained--if I ever have anyone ask me how it works, I may just send them the link to your entry!
