I have to tell you, when one reads a promising manuscript and then things get stalled out in one of the many ways that things can when people are trying to live their lives and write fiction, the sensation I have is exactly like that of being stuck partway through a long meandering story that is appearing in installments in a magazine, and being unable to find the next issue. This is, of course, nothing to the sensation of having such a manuscript of one's own, but I'm just so delighted that a book I always had a soft spot for is being all polished up.
