Congratulations, Jilli! Go Buffista authors!
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Jilli, that's such fabulous news--go you!
erika, yay you, too! Having your stuff read is great. I keep wanting to read podfic for people. Alas, I have no podtech in my house.

Yay, Jilli! I can't wait to read it.

A belated "Yay!" to Jilli. I am not at all surprised. Now I'm just waiting for it to come out, so that I can give copies to all my friends. They already have copies of Vampire People.

Editor question: "mission-driven" or "mission driven"?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
How's it being used in the sentence? If it's something like "mission-driven goals", then it's hyphenated because it's an adjective.

Because books.
What Dana said. Most hyphenation is placement- and use-dependent.

Resume for a non-profit: "To lead a team of mission driven artists with the common goal of enriching children and young people with the power of the arts. "

Because books.
I would use the hyphen there, sarameg.
Also, cool job!
