Galleys / Page Proofs
The old word is galleys. My Berkley editor calls them Page Proofs. Here's a sample from Sorceress of Faith.
Mostly minor corrections, this time, but a few lines added here or there. You'll notice that when we did the copy edits we came out with a sentence that made no sense, so I'm correcting it.
The Characters:
Marian -- Heroine, grad student of Comparative Philosophy and Religion, Boulder CO
Jaquar -- Sorcerer, seen in Guardian of Honor, Hero of Sorceress of Faith
Alexa -- Marshall of the Jade Baton, Heroine of Guardian of Honor, formerly of Denver
Sinafin -- Shape-shifting magical being more powerful than she seems
Bastien -- Marshall of the Black and Silver Baton, Hero of Guardian of Honor
Setting: Walking up a hill from the town of Castleton to the Marshalls' Castle.
Jaquar is of Earth-Lladranan blood. Marian has just asked: "Has anyone ever kept track of all the mixed bloodlines in a historical genealogical way?"
May all your revisions be easy.

Oh dear Robin,
FF did not get the "joke" in this page? LOL!
I will have to fill her in, I am not sure if she has read GOH.
This is wonderful. Poor Jaquar. Evidently the Llandranians prefer their bloodlines pure.
Sniff.

Hi just wondering if your still checking the posts on access romance regarding streetnames and such?
Moonhart, I explained it. I think the Lladranans like Exotiques if they are famous and working hard, not caring too much for their descendants...
Megan, I haven't looked at that, because the feedback was a lot less than I'd hoped for when I first started...but I think people are falling into autumn and lives are getting busy with the change of the season. I'll pop right on over.
Love,
Robin
