rolanni: (Yay!)
[personal profile] rolanni

. . .first one published was Agent of Change, a mass market original from Random House/Del Rey, in February 1988, then Conflict of Honors, in June 1988; Carpe Diem in October 1989; and Plan B in trade paper in…

February 1999.

Yeah, little bit of break, there.

Starting with the February 1999 release, though, we got more regular in our habits, with the result that we just recently handed in our eighteenth collaborative novel.

A lot of you have heard this story before.  The reason I’m doing a refresher right now is. . .

. . .with the assistance of Madame the Agent, and the willingness of Toni Weiskopff at Baen. . .

. . .we just today sold three more Liaden Universe® novels.

Dragon Ship, the sequel to next August’s Ghost Ship, is due in September 2011.  Trade Secret, the sequel to Balance of Trade, is due in May 2012.  In-between those two — due in January 2012 — is an as-yet-untitled Surebleak-centric story featuring some interesting new characters.

Keep in mind that the above are the authors’ delivery dates and not publication dates.  We don’t know what the publication dates may or will be.  That comes later.

First, we need to write like heck.

I am especially pleased to note that Baen wants the Balance of Trade sequel; I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting that one!!

Trade Secret, the sequel to Balance of Trade, is due in May 2012.

w00t! I like all the stories you and Steve write but I have a real soft spot for the protagonist in that one. And a huge curiosity about how it is going to illuminate 'history'. :)

Agreed, I'd like to see more trader stories in general!

a warm, comfy bed with a good reading lamp, a hot cup of tea and a new Liaden book!
A bow of thank you to Baen Books and Madame the Agent and a special bow of gratitude to the Delms Lee and Miller, for without you there would be less joy in my world.
