I’d expect it to be a disaster if so; it’s not something that can be “updated” without completely transforming it, in which case why not do original work?

Milestone
Pamela has completed the submission draft of Going North. That’s the first copy she’s holding, all 1014 pages of it. We took them to the Post Office tonight, they’re on their way to New York and, um, I believe it’s Pennsylvania.
LA Times Article on Heinlein
How often does a major newspaper publish an article on an author that’s not tied to a book or movie release? How often when the author has been dead 20 years?
The LA Times just did. On Heinlein, of course. The very existence of the article seems to somewhat undercut the content, which is mostly negative.
New Complete Edition of Robert A. Heinlein
Stumbled across this through several LJ posts today:
As of when I checked, no information on the Windhaven Press site yet.
[Edited to add: Okay, got some clarifications. Windhaven Press is the new production company for the edition; they are not the publisher, hence are not setting the prices or controlling the textual content of the editions. And my confusion seems to have annoyed “editrx”, for which I apologize.]
Meisha Merlin was originally doing the edition, but they’ve gone under.
At least with the MM edition, the cheapest way to get into it was $2200 in advance, and they’ve somewhat front-loaded the production order with the bad books to boot, so I doubt I’m getting it; let alone the $3500 leather-bound gilt-edged edition.
