I have now completed reviewing submissions for The Book of Witches. There were some wonderful stories sent to me, and after a lot of thought and angst, I was able to winnow them down to a final list of three.

I’ve written to the writers of those stories and am waiting to finalise agreements with them.  I’m not sure when we’ll announce what those stories were, but I’m very happy to have them in the book.

I have also received a number of queries from writers about the status of their stories, mostly because of updates published here saying I was running behind. Although it was not my initial plan to do so, I’ve now written to almost everyone updating them on the status of their stories.
