Authonomy

I've been doing housecleaning tasks (writerly ones) and updated my stuff at BU, checked the Webboard at Baen's, formatted a couple of stories for Anthology Builder, and prepped a query.

And I spent some time looking over Authonomy. This is Harper Collin's equivalent of an open slush pile.

Has anyone tried this out? Any thoughts?

Yeah - the odds are better than winning the lottery, but it's still luck and networking that count, given that the standard is very high and most of the books are on a par with each other in terms of quality. It's helping HC keep their slushpile down, I guess:-)

Yeah, you're probably right about that...
