[INDEXED]The Dark Man by Stephen King

My original wording was a little more alliteratively risqué; It was originally "pate" instead of "kibob."

Schlitz malt liquor!

Nah why use Nyquil when you can just get them drunk...

Certainly, Alf wouldn't care which he gets as long as it contains the kitty.

Okay, I can confirm:

We have worked with the author before.

Those previous books have sold out very quickly in several cases.

The book is not Joyland.

It is not a book you currently own.

The book is already designed and in production, heading to the printer next week.

The trade editions will be published on July 30th. (Signed editions will most likely ship in August because the traycase turnaround time is running 10 weeks right now and they can't start until we have a dummy book.)

There are no other editions in the works from anyone because it IS an oddity -- not a novel or novella reprint.

We've had a lot of fun putting the book together, but we know some fans will love this book and others will feel "meh" about it because it's not a novel or novella. It's one of those quirky, odd projects that are perfect for a small press.

Oh, and the regular trade edition will be available in US bookstores, but we don't know how many copies they'll have yet.

Does this help?

No
Thanks for confusing me more Do I want it do I don't want it...Well I guess I will find out Tuesday.

Since it's not a novella or novel, I'm guessing it's a comic, but of what?

[srboone]

Let's ask Jambi!

Mekka-Lekka-Hi-Mekka-Hiney-Ho.



Hmm...he says to expect a retrospective on The Rock Bottom Remainders with embarrassing photographs of each member? Sounds like a odd coffee table book...

[Tommy]

lol

[Martin]

Actually, that would be kinda cool!

Since it's not a novella or novel, I'm guessing it's a comic, but of what?

Sort of what I was thinking, but the emphasis on it being an oddity, and right for a small press, makes me think otherwise. Maybe an illustrated novel like Cycle of the Werewolf. I dunno.

Try to catch them when they're sleeping:



(Random pic off the Internet, I do not know the cats in question.)

Hey! That top one is my Tiny! And the one on the left is Shadow! They better get their butts back home fast. And I thought they were just kidding when they said they were going to run away if I didn't give them constant access to the catnip.

[Tommy]

WOW! Another email, I feel like we are being prepared for the End of Days, so scared and Nervous now

[Brian James Freeman]

I have one more cool hint that I'm hoping I can post on Monday. It's part of what I really dug about this project.

The anticipation is killing me.

[Neiaushie79]

It's not killing me, I'm dead already.

Hmmmm. I don't really have any money but I'm certainly itching to find out what is up.
