Tales from the desk of a Star Wars editor

Warning: There will be spoilers for various Star Wars novels and the films up to the end of the New Jedi Order.

Back in the late 1990 and the early 2000, I was working at the offices of Del Rey Books in various capacities. I started as an editorial assistant and worked my way up the editorial food chain. One of the editors that I worked for the entire time I was there was Shelly Shapiro who was the editor of the Star Wars Novels. Another editor I worked for was Steve Saffel who was the editor of the Star Wars non-fiction line. Yes, we had a fiction line and a non-fiction line for Star Wars and I was the point person for both.
