Although it seems to be taking forever, so much so that Gene and I begin to doubt anything will ever happen, we just today received another note from the publisher indicating that it is indeed "in the mill" and that this is a "good project," but explaining that it just takes a lot of time with academic publishers -- as we've more than learned. But in any event, this is good news, and it looks like the Showalter bio may yet be a reality.
Will post again as soon as there's anything more of note.
Very much looking forward to your book. Yes, publishing with some academic presses can require a maddening amount of patience... sometimes years. Hopefully, they are being honest with you about the prospects.
ReplyDeleteYes, we're looking forward to it too! All seems well, and we're assured things are moving along. Thank you for your comment.
