Following on from my post yesterday about the upcoming release of my fantasy novel, The Eynan, I heard back from the publisher pretty quickly after I queried the situation with its release on 7th July. He confirmed that everything was on track for the publication date; he was working on the cover art and my Editor was hard at it working through the manuscript. So, I feel much better now. Of course, still going to have lots of editing to do over the next few weeks:)
It’s all too easy to think a writer’s work is done when the words The End are typed, but in reality that is only the beginning of the hard work.

L. S. Gibson, author! 
Any tips on finding the right publisher? I am working on a YA mystery right now and have no clue where to begin searching for an editor.
Hi Joe! It was difficult finding my first publisher – I also write under another pen name, and though this is my first release as L.S. Gibson I have been published since 2007 – I would always wish to offer any help I can to aspiring authors. I have no experience of YA myself, but two of the publishers I have worked with have YA sections.
1) Part of the MLR group, Featherweight Publishing, is open to submissions: http://www.featherweightpublishing.dom
2) Part of Torquere Press group, Prizmbooks, is also open for submissions: http://www.prizmbooks.com
Hope this helps:)
Yes, this is very helpful information. i am readying a YA manuscript and want to submit by the fall.
