Just wanted to tell you that “The New Space Opera” was my favorite new anthology of last year and your Best Science Fiction and Fantasy has been my favorite reprint anthology for the past two years (in fact, now that I think about it, your best science fiction books have been my favorite for two or three years before that, as well). Eclipse One was wonderful and if I was voting for best editor in the Hugo awards you would be number 1. You were my top vote in the Locus awards. So, good on you. I believe in your acumen and taste to design the best book possible from whatever stories you read. Thanks. I just bought “The Starry Rift” and will get to it soon. Can’t wait!

You’ll get through it, Jonathan. And whatever the process has been, you produce excellent books – and will continue to do so in the future. All the worry just means you’re sane!

I honestly would if I could. I don’t seem to be able to handle things any other way. It’s stupid. It makes no sense. But it seems to be how I’m constructed. I do have a long period of leave from the day job coming up, so that may help.
