Production Update Questions

[Brian James Freeman]

Any word on the Joyland Illustrated Edition slipcases? The May 12th update says you expected to have them in the warehouse by April .

They have arrived and now we're just slogging our way through the 'SALEM'S LOT shipping, which is taking up every square foot of the warehouse! If someone needs their case ASAP for a gift, etc, just email Mindy or Dan or myself!

What is the time frame looking like for The Fireman for those who ordered via CD? I'm in no rush, just curious. I have enough books that are in the TBR list of mine to keep me busy for a very long time!

It'll be the first thing we ship after we're done with Salem's Lot, which I hope to finish up next week.

How do you guys prioritize when you ship things? Obviously a title that takes up a huge amount of space, like any of the Doubleday series books, needs to go out ASAP just from a purely logistical view, but beyond that, if you have two relatively small releases sitting around, which would go out first?

Typically it's just whatever order something arrives in. Outside of that it's usually a combination of what people are asking about most / what's more pressing in terms of the distributors. But mostly it's just the order things arrived in.

i just wanted to check on the slipcases for Joyland again as it's been about two months. Not meaning to be pushy, just curious.

They're definitely overdue because our slipcase maker didn't get them shipped to us before they closed for their summer break, but I will post an update as soon as they're open again!

I was wondering if all of these have shipped yet? I have one on order (to Australia) and have not seen any shipping notice.

Thanks

Did you order one with a slipcase? If so, the slipcases are still in production. Otherwise, yes all the ones without slipcases should have shipped. If you didn't order a slipcase you should send Mindy and email about it. Your order is probably stuck in our system for some reason.

Thanks for that, I looked at the original order and didn't remember anbout the slipcase. I saw it was added later to the order.

How is the timing of the slipcase looking?

I am honestly not sure. I case maker has several cases at the moment and they are running behind.

Hey Dan, you need to start a traycase production company!!

Dan, would you be able to provide shipping estimates for a few books from other publishers?

Little Ochre Book of Occult Stories
Borderlands 6
Boy's Life
Summer of Night

Also (sorry!), would you guys have any info on when your generic black slipcases will ship?

Thanks!

All of that including the slipcase are here and in the queue of stuff to ship. There are about 13 or 14 different things in that queue though so I can't really give you a good idea of when they will ship. Currently I'm shipping Better Weird and the last bonus item from CDCC #6. After that is the slipcase for The Fireman, and then PS Publishing's version of Salems' Lot. I won't plan any further out than that though because the schedule needs to be fluid in case something of super high priority comes in.

Understood, thanks for the info.
