So happy to hear "Darksight Dare" is coming, and happy for more folks to get a copy of this book!
A welcome decision but a little odd. Although it slipped by me at the time, a news item on Locus Mag (online) in June has it that Sub Press is going out of business, closing all operations by (est.) end of 2027. See:
locusmag com/2026/06/subterranean-press-to-close/
I've wondered what effect this will have on future Penric stories. Besides Baen, NESFA has a number of your titles and I wondered whether one of the other might take up the series. Hope the series can continue and be worth your while some way or other.

At the moment, SubPress and I are even-steven. The two remaining Penric novellas are in their publishing pipeline, and will be out before they close up shop. The retiring publisher-owner has murmured about continuity in passing my stuff along to a comparable house, but until I write something more it's moot.
I consider my indie ebook publication to be my primary outlet and main income stream. SubPress, Blackstone, and foreign rights sales are after-market add-ons, welcome but not essential.

According to my calculations, so far you’ve been writing Penric stories at an average rate of one every 9.2 months. On that basis, there may be another one at the end of January. Let’s see what happens! (grin)

I've spent the spring and summer on mundane life and house maintenance chores. So, nothing in the pipeline yet, but who knows what this winter will bring.

Ohhh, that's great news! It's the only Subterranean Press edition I’m still missing!! I'm very happy!!!!!!
