Emily Krump, who is an editorial assistant at Eos (the SFF imprint for HarperCollins US), has very kindly agreed to an interview. Assistants like Emily are in a very good position to describe the day-to-day workings of a large publishing house, as well as to explain a lot of the things that seem puzzling to the rest of us on the outside.
So, if you have questions -- about the submissions process, about who is involved in the final decision to publish a book and what happens to the manuscript after it is accepted, or even what's new and exciting coming up from HarperCollins -- this is the thread to ask them.
I'll be sending out your questions (and my own) around the end of the month.
