Poor Jo! She's being hounded across the globe to finish a book which will probably, as it is, have no more than a couple of weeks with the editor. Quality still appears to be paramount with her (thank god, because the last thing we want is Harry Potter turning into Brian Jacques' Redwall series, of which book after formulaic book is cranked out to appease the increasingly less discerning fans). Frankly, for the sake of a really good book, I'm prepared to wait a few extra months.
