I had lunch with my friend Mark Korsak yesterday. He's been a hard at work putting together a book that covers 50 years of the Society of Illustrators annual
. He showed me all of the images selected to be included. This was one tough job. Thousands of images, already chosen to be the best of their year, had to be whittled down to 500. There is no way for the book to be anything less than great. I was happy to see sf/f well represented. While I crossed my fingers and hoped to see one, maybe two Tor covers, in the end I think I saw five or six of them. (Not that I was counting.)
