We realize we’ve blasted agents for their rather interesting approach to the Internet, and that’s a bit unfair. Publishers also deserve to share the spotlight. For example, when we learned that Nancy Hancock (formerly of McGraw-Hill) is moving to Touchstone Fireside, we thought: let’s get more information. We got as far as the description of the Touchstone imprint before our eyes glazed over. We’re not sure who the Simon & Schuster website targets, but we suspect that’s okay: it doesn’t appear they’re too clear on the matter either. Regardless, new editor at Touchstone. We’re sure she’s hungry to build her list.
