Scalzi's compilation "Your Hate Mail Will be Graded" delayed to 2008

John Scalzi reports that he and publisher Subterranean Press have pushed back the anticipated publication date of Your Hate Mail Will be Graded: Selected Writings 1998-2007 to early 2008. The book will be a compilation of writings from Scalzi's popular blog, Whatever.

Explaining the move, Scalzi noted that "as we prepped Hate Mail for later this year, I couldn't help notice that 2008—and my tenth year of writing the Whatever—was right around the corner. And, you know. Ten years is a nice round number. So Hate Mail is being revamped to be a ten-year retrospective of the site, which should be both interesting and fun to do."

Summing up, he remarked "Ten years. Damn. I've been doing this for a long time."
