"Virgins" is done!
Diana Gabaldon announced this morning that she's finished writing "Virgins", the story about Jamie and Ian as young mercenaries that will be published in the DANGEROUS WOMEN anthology.
When I asked on Compuserve how long the story is, Diana said, "Came in at 27,523 words, all told--so it's a novella, rather than a short story (surprise, surprise...)."
I think that's about the same length as "Lord John and the Succubus", but I could be wrong.
We still have no information about a possible publication date for the anthology, but I'll post here as soon as I find out anything. Diana keeps saying that she thinks it will be out this fall, but that's not definite yet.
Congratulations, Diana! <g>
(And yes, in case you're wondering, now that "Virgins" is done, Diana says she will go back to focusing "full-time" on WRITTEN IN MY OWN HEART'S BLOOD.)
