I hate to intrude on the conversation with such a mundane question, but I am very curious. Mr. Marcus, in your opinion do editors of today have less power than they did in the past? Does it vary from publisher to publisher? And on another topic, does it seem to you that fiction for the middle-grade child is being a little neglected in favor of more of today's really lovely picture books at one end and the explosion of timely and well-written young adult novels at the other? (Not to mention the growing market for graphic novels) Too many questions to answer? Pick your favorite, and I thank you for the opportunity to ask your opinion. Sally Derby
