A Sad Day for Sci-Fi Publishing.

I don't know why, but whenever I hear that a publisher has gone under it makes me sad. It was recently announced that Meisha Merlin (who was publishing the Robert Heinlein collection The Virgina Edition) is going under.

Glancing through the list of Titles, I did not find anything that I recognized. But even still, I'm left feeling bad. I know it's impossible to read every book produced (I heard one number along the lines that you would have to read 3 novels a day, every day to keep up with the annual production of new books) - but that doesn't mean I don't want to try.

I wish the best for the folks over at Meisha Merlin, and I'm sorry to see another SF/F publisher go.
