[INDEXED]10/31: THE BUTCHER'S TALE (was Oktober Shadows)

By my math, that works out to less than 1000 words per month, so hopefully he’s had a chance to wrap this one up. Sure hope so, It’s been so long since I’ve had a chance to read new work from an author who was one of my favorites back in the day.

I just asked Norm for a new update! The one he sent me in July was really interesting, but I don't know how much of it I can share because it was about the rewriting process and how some characters had changed completely from the original draft, etc. So some of the info is probably too "inside baseball" anyway and some of it might be too spoiler-y... Let me see how things are going this month, and I will report back!

Brian,

What was the result of your request for an update?

I'm trying a new approach. Instead of waiting until right before All Hallow's Eve, I'm asking at the start of summer. Maybe that way we can get it in time for the holiday season.

I’m certainly looking forward to this one, but years and years of hope and patience are lumbering dejectedly into skepticism at this point. Then again, if McCammon can come back from retirement better than ever, then anything’s possible. Keep hope alive!
