A five tweet message from @pnh


James Frenkel is no longer associated with Tor Books. We wish him the best. (1/5)

We’ll be contacting the authors and agents Mr. Frenkel worked with to discuss which editor here they’ll be working with going forward. (2/5)

This process will take some days or even weeks, so please be patient if you don’t hear from us instantly. (3/5)

Finally, if you had something on submission to Tor via Mr. Frenkel, you’ll need to resubmit it via some other Tor editor. (4/5)

If you don’t have a particular editor in mind, you can re-submit it via Diana Pho (diana.pho@tor.com) who will route it appropriately. (5/5)

I gather the final straw was when a manuscript by Orson Scott Card -- with a six digit advance -- got eaten.

Thank you for making my morning.
