The World SF Blog has an interesting
interview with Athena Andreadis, one of the editors of The Other Side of the Sky., in which she talks about both her motivation bethind creating the anthology and about the process itself. Possibly the most interesting part to me is her comment that the big delay between completing a ms. and its publicatio is no longer typesetting, but timing the book release to match the review queue, which of course is still timed to print publication.
