Where art meets commerce: the role of the editor. Sylvia Leatham reflects on lessons learned over the two-and-a-half-year process of editing her debut novel for a commercial market. My debut novel, Chaos Theory, was released in September 2025 with digital-first publisher Storm Publishing. A quirky romantic comedy with a speculative fiction twist, the book follows the adventures – in life and love – of Irish tourism executive Maeve McGettigan, as she navigates the chaos created by a new workplace robot called Kobi.

Early drafts of THE DAMNED featured quite a few references to the Yule Lads (the film *is* set at Christmas, after all) but they got cut out in the natural course of development.
Anyway, here’s a pic from when I was trying to do revisions in a cafe in Isafjördur and this guy sat down beside me.

These two stories are somehow connected. Apparently, if you lobby tirelessly for more pollution & ecological wreckage, that’s exactly what you get.

It always ends up being a war between those on safe, full time salaries for whom doing nothing is the safest options and freelancers or producers with bank loans, staff costs and fewer long-term productions paying the way for whom speedy decisions are a must.
