Any updates on The Shining? When is that expected to ship? (Mine's via PSP so it probably will take longer...)

Brian - When is 'In Sunlight or In Shadow' supposed to be published? It's not listed on the Production Updates page.
I believe there was a delay due to the dummy books size being a little off. This is the most recent production update:Originally Posted by pablo
The book will be completed at the printer in January 2017, and our slipcase and traycase makers are just waiting on finished copies to start work on the cases. All three editions will be published in spring 2017.

We where really hoping to have it in November / December as well. That said given how packed my shipping schedule is / has been since like September I can't imagine how we would've found the time.I was so hoping to have this end of last year.

Yeah, I've been super bummed about this one. Getting the proper rights to add the new material took four months when I thought it would take a few weeks. Then the dummy book was not produced on the correct paper stock, which is something I'm SUPER paranoid about in general. (I've only been really burned once by a bad dummy book, but they've always made me nervous.) The printer closed for their usual three weeks for the holidays before they could finish the job and they will be re-opening next week, at which point they should be binding the books, so we SHOULD have finished copies for the case makers to get exact sizing this month.I was so hoping to have this end of last year.

Everything had been coming together really nicely on this one, but the universe kept tripping us up. In the end, though, the finished product should be beautiful (and unique) and hopefully that'll make up for the wait!

This bit got my attention when I first saw it, because (unless I've been snoozing) the lettered Salem's Lot still has yet to make its appearance. If I'm wrong about this, please administer a severe correction, preferably including photos, which, since I will likely never own this, are my main goal anyway.

...and speaking of Salem's Lot, I received the GE for Christmas and can now verify what everyone already knows: it is quite nice.

Definitely not wrong. However those and the Gone Girl lettereds should be shipping soon. I mostly just have to find the time to work them into the shipping schedule, which is unfortunately full at the moment.This bit got my attention when I first saw it, because (unless I've been snoozing) the lettered Salem's Lot still has yet to make its appearance.

Hi Brian/Dan - Asking again, in case you missed it earlier...
When is 'In Sunlight or In Shadow' supposed to be published? It's not listed on the Production Updates page.
Mostly. I have some part time help right now putting in like 15 hours a week. It's not usually a problem with our regular projects, but we've had a lot of huge shipping projects since September / October which has really backed us way up, and my part time help is fairly new so is still kinda slow.Do yuo handle shipping all by yourself Dan?Definitely not wrong.

I will check!

Just noticed the Production Update page has The Salem's Lot Portfolios as shipping this month. Hopefully we are still on course for that or soon after.
Were we offered remarques on those? I don't recall.
I think we're getting close on those. I know our local printer who usually handles art prints for us has been taking a long time with the prints. That said given the shipping schedule I wouldn't get my hopes up that they will actually ship in January even if they where to show up tomorrow. I don't really have the schedule locked down super far out, but we're currently shipping Haven by Tom Deady (was supposed to be out in December) and then Vampyricon is next, plus I really want to get the lettereds for Salems' Lot and Gone Girl shipped this month. The shipping queue is fluid thing though so we'll see.
I will beat their price. I also can say... you will never wait that long at my store for prints. NO MORE than 2-3 days turnaround plus the time to ship it back to you.I think we're getting close on those.

It was a ridiculous wait this time. We like to work with other local businesses, but there's only so much we can do if they're going to take this long, you know? I think part of the problem with them in 2016 was that this is a family owned shop that has been around FOREVER and they just joined a chain or bought into a franchise, I'm not sure which, but everything just ground to a halt while they put new procedures in place and new systems and...

Maybe a confidential test run of 50 prints.
Pressure on Kris to earn a larger project, but if things don't work out, both parties aren't butt hurt.
