Cemetery Dance discussion thread

[Br!an]

I'm so glad that you received permission to print this. Good on Jon for finding it, you for adding it and King for approving it.

[Brian James Freeman]

I assume (but not trying to pry into the secret inner workings) that some thanks go to SK for allowing this as well?

Yep, absolutely. Steve could have said "yep" or "nope" to the inclusion of the material and he very kindly said, "yep."

Cool (x)infinity!!!!!!


Cemetery Dance related.....did anyone else get the email from Veryfinebooks.com that is selling the GIFT edition of Cemetery Dance's 'Salem Lot' for $250.00? I always wonder if anyone has EVER gotten a good deal from Veryexpensivebooks.com!

Yea, I got that email earlier as well. He once offered to sell me two SK red library editions that I was missing for $150 each! Um, going to take a miss. I've since found one (for about $20) but still on the hunt for the other. @ veryexpensivebooks.com

If you are patient, I think you can get most of those for around that price.

That being said, I did buy a 1st/1st of The Shining from them a few years ago and paid a pretty good price. Must have been a fluke!

It is so awesome that you went to the trouble to add this material, Brian!

[HONKYTONKSMASH]

Wow. This is awesome news

[Randall Flagg]

I think it's awesome that our member came here first (publicly with )the info.
That's pure joy, and great reward for doing this "hobby".

That's great news. Way to go Brian and Jon for making this happen. And great that King gave the ok. Looking forward to it.

Is Jon getting a mention in the finished book, Brian?

Is Jon getting a mention in the finished book, Brian?

His essay will be credited to him.

Also, I feel like a heel because I finally remembered over the weekend to ask the designer to credit Bob Jackson for the cool scans from his collection that he has been providing us for these books!

Ahh right so it's Jon's essay! Duh I thought it was an essay by SK.

Very cool!

[The Library Policeman]

We should ALL credit Bob Jackson. Every day. For that amazing collection and those amazing back stories!

[Dan]

This is great! Makes this edition even more unique.

Good thing you remembered.
Recalling hundreds...thousands of books would be expensive.
An errata note just wouldn't work.

[mkberger]

--and has encouraged me to order another copy.

[Brian861]

Holy crap! I've seen those red books at Half Price Books for around 5 or 10 bucks apiece.

Right. That's what I've heard as well.

[Brian861]

Cool (x)infinity!!!!!!

Don't worry about me, Brian. You guys (esp. Mindy) have all done plenty for me over the years.

Now I just gotta get Jon to sign my copy!
