Talk:Sophie and Fitz/@comment-24.115.244.157-20190514130131

Last year’s launch party was exponentially more well-organized than the previous years’ ones I’ve attended.

Simon & Schuster took over not only the book cover, but even the annual Iggy poll.

Shannon’s tumblr is gone. Her old blog site is paved clean. She no longer personally interacts with fans through any social media, save for the occasional quote-tweet.

Shannon’s publishers obviously taken a much larger role in the series this past year. Sure, this is a good thing because it means Keeper is gaining more popularity and a larger fandom, but unfortunately, I’m guessing things are on the road to becoming a lot less personal. Not only that, but they’ve obviously realized the monetary potential of the Fitz-Keefe rivalry. Did someone say capitalism-funded ship wars?

TLDR; expect even more changes this fall when Legacy comes out, because Simon & Schuster is a corporation, not an author.
