Good health to all!!!
Hmmmmm. Is it sketchy to anyone else to see that the same seller has another copy of THE FIREMAN arc for sale? Also, it's the exact same picture as the one I saw earlier... in the world of collectible
comic books that is considered dirty pool. Is it the same with books?

Did you guys know there are two versions of the preview sampler for The Fireman? If not, you do now! Front cover is the same. Differences below.
And the hunt will start lol
I have the one on the left, it seem to me that it's the more common one

It shows two sold and one for sale. If you look at the seller's past sales there are other multiple ARC sales. I'd say they have access at the publisher.

Understood. For me, if I'm going to spend that kind of money, I want to see the actual book for condition.It shows two sold and one for sale. If you look at the seller's past sales there are other multiple ARC sales. I'd say they have access at the publisher.

Yeah, because publishers don't always take care of these things when they send them out. Here's the one I just received. (Yes, the cover has a significant diagonal crease)
Author of The Road to the Dark Tower, Stephen King: A Complete Exploration of His Work, Life, and Influences and The Dark Tower Companion. Co-editor with Stephen King of the anthology Flight or Fright.
That's a shame... You should just send that copy to me and request another, haha.Yeah, because publishers don't always take care of these things when they send them out. Here's the one I just received. (Yes, the cover has a significant diagonal crease)
Ugh.

Scary thing is that in the future the publisher will deface/damage a new arc/proof prior to sending it out.
Worse yet, send the 1st half of the book, and only send the second half upon return of the first half.
Failure to return the second half will remove the person from the next major book's proof.
I'm surprised that a book clearly marked "not for resale" (or whatever) is being flamboyantly sold on eBay. I'd understand a private sale but this is the seller playing with fire. A single email to the publisher and they're cut off. I don't see a problem selling the proof after it's published. Selling it before is a breach of trust IMO.
I think the bigger move is toward digital proofs and away from costlier bound galleys. I already had The Fireman in e-format

MLG and bdwyer19, good luck with the surgery and/or recovery!
I still need to locate a preview and now I find out there are two. I'm further behind than I realized.

I realized there was a second state on the preview when I got mine from PS and it was different from the others I had seen. Thanks for the well wishes. I hope to be moving from miserable to recovering soon.
Likely this got posted already....but Joe Hill doing a signing event day BEFORE publication May 16th 7pm in Portsmouth NH...go to www.the musichall.org/cal to get tix....$13.25 each + handling fee of $5 each. Am taking my daughter so will be there.
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
Nice. Congrats Shac!
Awesome Shac!
How much will it cost to get a book not signed by Hill? He seems to be everywhere on this book tour. I wish his dad had the same attitude.
Way to go, Shac!

Just saw the PS Publishing newsletter and still no word on Joe Hill's The Fireman.....
Juat a heads up, guys, but yesterday Joe's FB page posted a status to be on the lookout for a free download coming Monday. Within minutes, this posting was removed. Not sure what's up with that, but I'll be keeping my eyes peeled.
Cool thanks man. I wish SubPress was making a Fireman limited I really like their books.
For Joe Hill´s first German book promo tour BLIND -HSB 2007, there was more or less no promo.
