Love it! Definitely one of the very best covers CD has done, so good it doesn't need any lettering IMO, very excited to see what the next five artist editions will look like!

Funny you mention the lettering. We're going with no text on the front of the Artist Edition DJs in this series to really put the focus on their art.

Brian, If I may... I would reserve the no writing for this edition. I may speak out of turn and please people agree or dis-agree with me but I feel the Artist needs this focus more... hence the name "Artist Edition". kris

[Randall Flagg]

Great piece. I love the idea of no text on the front.

[subie09lega]

I'm glad you're doing that, too. That's a great piece by Tomislav.

[Patrick]

I'm absolutely on board with the "no text" concept for the dust jackets in this entire series.

Wow, I was going to suggest that the art have no titles like the Signet paperback 1st printings but didn't think you'd go for it.

[Merlin1958]

Oh, now that is some stunning art!!! Love the face in the fire!!

[Ben Staad]

Thanks for the advance viewing. It's obvious that I'm against the grain on this one.

Hey Brian when is the update going out?

Probably in the next hour or so.

Brian

Hmmm... I didn't get the update for some reason. Anything important in it besides the art?

ETA: I love the jacket and the no text plan too.

[webstar1000]

Brian, I was wondering if you had a rough idea of time (and I know it is hard to be 100%) of when we will see the first Carrie's going out?

[AKC]

How are the "triple remarqued" Doctor Sleep S/Ls coming along?

Definitely drop Mindy a line if you preordered a copy from us and didn't get the update yesterday because we'll want to make sure your email address on your order is correct. Also, there was a "thank you" coupon code just for those who preordered, so we'll want to make sure you get that, too! Her address is order@cemeterydance.com.

Here's the text of the update part of the email:

The limitation pages have arrived from the printer and the sheets to be signed are now headed to Croatia for Tomislav Tikulin to sign. Once they’re back, they’ll go to Glenn Chadbourne in Maine for him to sign as well.

The book itself has been designed and is with our proofreaders. The special order elements for the production/printing, some of which are being hand-made in Europe, have already been ordered. The paper stock is a special order that will take approximately six weeks to arrive at our printer.

Our printer has also started work on the “dummy book,” which is an early blank version of the book that is made by hand to be the exact same size as the finished book based on the materials selected. This early version will allow our slipcase maker to get started on the slipcases ahead of time without an actual finished book for sizing.

Finally, we’re pleased to show off the artwork for the Artist Edition here:

We look forward to sharing more insider information with you in the months to come, including some sneak peeks at the artwork for the next book in the series, ‘SALEM’S LOT, later this summer.

How are the "triple remarqued" Doctor Sleep S/Ls coming along?

We just sent 18 more copies to Erin Wells. She's been really generous with her schedule because I know these take some time to do. Drop me a line at brianfreeman@cemeterydance.com if you didn't already and I'll check and see if yours is in that batch we just sent. Thanks for your patience!

I'm hoping the Gift and the Numbered Artist Edition will ship by the end of September at the very latest, but until those signature sheets are back, it'll be hard to pinpoint exactly. Maybe it'll be a little sooner. I'll post when everything is sent to the printer, which will give us a pretty good idea of the ship date unless something really bad happens.

Brian

[webstar1000]

Does anyone ever send anything to have Erin Wells remarque? I really want a GE IT done by her... how do you do if so?

[bdwyer19]

I'll PM you her email. She's a Wisconsin native, like me, so she's great to work with!

[LostAlivE]

Brian are all 6 of the books in this series going to be 7 inches X 10 inches ?

Correct, they will be 7 X 10.

I can't wait to see what you come up with for each book especially The Stand.

[webstar1000]

Me too... and another one (most might not agree) but the last book... the one that King just threw at them. Be nice to see Pet Semetary get some love If we are lucky ever book in this series will be MIND BLOWING.

[LostAlivE]

Brian I meant to ask you if The Stand is going the be the complete uncut edition or the edited edition. I hope it will be the uncut edition. I can't remember if it was ever mentioned.
