Probably not, if "it's something he's never done before".

Who says it's going to have anything to do with DT? "Ka is a wheel" and the other project (of which he has never done anything like) are two different things.
It's kind of hard to ignore the "Ka Is A Wheel" and Dark Tower connection. Might be wishful thinking on all our parts, but I don't think it's a very big jump from one to the other.

Hi new guy here. Been checking on this thread since seeing the 'ka is a wheel' thing myself and felt like chiming in.
Now I may have got the wrong end of the stick here but this quote;
'...King said he had recently had an idea for a short story. “And then I thought, ‘Well, why don’t I find three more like this and do a book that would be almost like modern fairy tales?’ Then this thing started to add on bits and pieces so I guess it will be a novel.” That idea, according to King, is for a new Dark Tower novel, a continuation of his epic seven-part fantasy/sci-fi/Western series about a lone gunslinger named Roland and his ongoing hunt for the Man in Black. “It’s not really done yet,” King admits of his magnum opus. “Those seven books are really sections of one long uber-novel.”
seemed pretty clear to me. A new DT novel is on the way, a continuation of the seven, and as far as i'm aware (please correct me if wrong) there's yet to be an 'offical' announcment of said novel.
Of course it is possible that the current, and up coming, teaser relates to something else but is that really likely?
Welcome, Adryn! Please contribute often!
From where did that quote come from? I don't recognize it, although I'm sure I'd have remembered something that important.

Since there was an "interactive Flash experience" that was supposed to come out in 2008, based on the then-new official DT site, I think it's likely that they're still planning to do that. Probably just took way longer to do than expected, or got delayed for other reasons? (The placeholder Ka is a Wheel image is a Flash object, so it's even possible that there will be something going on in that part of the DT site eventually...IMO.)
Thanks. I missed that the first time!

You and everyone else, apparently. I swear that article fell into todash space.

to Michael Whelan being in on this mysterious new thing! Yay!
Agreed!
A confirmation from Ms. Mod that the new DT book and the "November Surprise" are not the same thing -

You are gonna like it people. Michael is just an amazing artist.
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.
We wish we knew what Wiz knows.
Really. *taps foot*
