Over two years ago @parabasis came to me with a great idea for a story, about a science fiction master whose novels were beloved but, for some reason, had fallen out of print.
Over the next year he would occasionally call me with these "holy shit!!" moments as the story got weirder and weirder. When we published his great piece, there was one final surprise ... slate.com/culture/2019/1…
Isaac's reporting helped @torbooks pick their way through the confusion about Ford's estate and, yes, acquire the books for reprint.

Happy birthday to this book, which was published one year ago today. Here’s a long-ass thread about what it was like. Image
Each time I’ve published a book I’ve been reminded anew how nerve-wracking it can be. (What a privilege even to be able to say that!) In my experience very few authors ever feel like their books got ENOUGH press or were blurbed by the PERFECT people or sold ENOUGH copies.
I vowed with this one to try to set all that aside and just be happy that a book exists chronicling a special time in our family. After all, I kept saying: The publisher can’t take their money back now, and we can’t un-take the trip that changed our lives forever.

update: it was not McKay's but that seems awesome
it was like, basically in pisgah national forest
