[books] An important note about Pinion

Just a quick peek inside the sausage factory here, along with a huge “thank you.”

has a book entitled Pinion which is currently going through the contracting process, through our shared agent, . When , and I were hammering through possible production titles for Tourbillon, I came up with Pinion without realizing was already using it.

Titles aren’t copyrighted, and books with similar (or identitical) titles are endemic. But none of us wanted to step on . So we checked production schedules and other likely points of confusion, then asked if she minded that I use Pinion for the third Mainspring book.

Quite graciously, she agreed.

So here is a big shout-out and a thank you to , who is a Hero of the Revolution and will get some love in the book, besides.

  Man, it’s going to be so weird seeing that title on my reading list and have it mean a different book!

  I’d hate to see you guys pitched against each other in a combat to the death, so I’m glad you came to an agreement.
