One more sneak peek at a SKETCH for the artwork for NIGHT SHIFT, but please note it is just an early sketch and the perspective or other elements or even the scene selected could change completely for the final artwork:

I think that might be the last time, but I will ask Richard later this summer what he thinks!

Brian

Thanks, Brian. If not, no problem. I should have taken advantage of the deal when it was previously offered. But I'll keep my fingers crossed just in case!

[Brian James Freeman]

They did right after the early The Shining preorder offer (I know because I was finally able to jump on).

Any chance you might offer it one last time for the remaining three books?

A few dozen people did the "buy the whole set now" deal after CARRIE, which I think they'll find is turning in a REALLY good deal.

The Shining is selling very quickly: The Lettered Artist Edition is already sold out, the Numbered Artist Edition is now 90% sold out, and the Slipcased Gift Edition is already 75% sold out. This is WAY ahead of 'SALEM'S LOT.

Holy biscuits! That is awesome. I'm not surprised that the lettered is already gone and that the AE is almost sold out, but to have sold 75% of the gift edition's 3000 copies is amazing! I was wondering how well this would sell in relation to Salem's Lot mostly due to the Subterranean Press edition being released in the not-too-distant past. I know there were cries of double-dipping when this set was first announced. It seems that people have changed their minds. I'm sure the high-quality of these editions along with the awesome bonus feature is driving this, which is awesome! Congrats, CD!

I doubt you guys would ever reveal the numbers, but I'd be interested to see what percentage was sold via special early preorders, either through a subscription to the whole set or the offer that came in shortly after 'Salem's Lot was put up for general preorder.

Night Shift, whoo-hoo!! LOVE this collection. Can't wait to see what's in store for "The Ledge," probably my favorite story in the book.

[Theli]

I love it!

[Brian James Freeman]

As a sneak peek of what's to come in the future, I'm really excited about the interior artwork for NIGHT SHIFT. Illustrations for every story by an artist who really "gets" the mood of the book. His sketches have been nicer than some of the finished artwork I've seen people turn in. Here's a sample and please remember it is just an early sketch:

Another winner for sure! And already pre-ordered.
But, where's the lettered edition (to pre-order I mean)?
All spoken for, I guess.
