Suntup Editions

[knightmare]

So, this is a newbie question....what does someone usually purchase to be on the list for Advance Review? Does it come with purchase of a certain edition, or they passed on to trusted folks to consider them and pass on thoughts? I was a research specialist for the professors where I edited dissertations while working on doctorate if that helps me get in the group :)
It's a very exclusive club, and all memberships are taken. Your best bet is to get in one of the club member's will, so that when they die, the membership is passed on to you.

See that's complicated b/c then I'd be hoping for the death of someone who had put me in their will.

I appreciate that info, I was also asking in a general nature. I know this is the Suntup Thread and obviously that was my primary reason, but I have always wondered how this happens with all books. I've bought all types for years and never even been offered an opportunity to receive an advance reader's copy except once from Grim Oaks & that was with pre-order.

Thanks

In general most review copies go to influential people in the media or who have an association with the project - journalists, book reviewers, bloggers, agents, publishers, editors, etc. With Suntup, if you bought at the Silver or Gold level subscription, ARCs are included.

Makes sense, Thanks! As usual I'm just behind the times, would have certainly bought in at Gold if I had been here before.

Another thing to add to the list of things to do when I finish that time machine I'm working on.

I can tell you that I bought it because I totally wholeheartedly believed in Paul and his mission. Could I afford it? NO. I had never spent this much on anything other than my home! Not even a car... Near $35000 in CAD. We all know now that it was worth every penny but I knew then it was a steal. The lettered selling for $15K for Misery itself... made this all worth while. I do not sell the books.. I keep them. AT first I though I would sell them. Once I started to get them? Nope.... I AM a collector of King and of Paul's work. There is no one out there doing what he is doing. His career is just starting and I love being on the ride with him. Was it a gamble? Not to me... my only issue was how to get the money not whether I should or not.

Yep, I found out about Dragon Rebound about a month ago leaving me behind the curve. I also agree that, particularly with the lettered, I'm finding I simply want to keep them. I do have a bookstore, and always list everything even favorites but I'm not sure if I'll let go of the upcoming Rosemary's Baby lettered. I'll probably list it to show it off and set the market super high.

If I wasn't married, I would have found the money. But a lifetime subscription on top of a divorce was way too much.

Suntup & Dragon Rebound are the 1st book collection part I've shown my wife that she has loved. Everything is usually "meh", but she was floored. This actually helps my marriage :)

True. My wife is a graphic designer and she LOVED the type treatment in The Haunting of Hill House. She rarely comments on my addiction. So I take it from her reaction that Suntup is an approved dealer. Still, getting her to agree to buy a lifetime subscription before there's a beautiful book to show her, that's a bridge too far. And even after I've shown her. Which is fair. We don't have "for special" money. Otherwise we'd be living in a Frankie Wright house with a Suntup library, furnished with mid century modern furniture.

[MikeDuke]

I would have been happy just with the Bronze. But I wasn't smart enough to think out ahead.

Does anyone have an “Annie” postcard from the Misery swag kit they’d be willing to part with (for a price, of course)? I recently cleaned my office and I seem to have misplaced that one. I have the rest of the swag, just not that one postcard.

If you don’t end up securing one send me a PM and I will mail you one.

Nice looking Archival Folio Box.

[zelig]

Good one George. After sending that email about the boxes being in stock again, there was a run on them and now they are all sold out. More are on order.

[Bev Vincent]

Received an ARC of Rosemary's Baby a few days ago. What a great novel that is.

Good one George. After sending that email about the boxes being in stock again, there was a run on them and now they are all sold out. More are on order.

See, now the problem is to figure out how to display it (it's a beast) and to really fill it up with more than the prints I have so far (EOTD, DT III, and Desperation, all remarqued) ... good problems to have. Along those lines Paul, I fired you off an email yesterday evening.

[amd013]

Probably because its getting to the point the first one can't hold any more if you have bought them all so far. :)

True. Not sure how you all store the prints, but without the backing boards and plastic sleeves, you can obviously get more in a box. It's perfectly fine to store them that way, as long as there is the interleaving glassine sheet between each print.

That's awesome! Looking forward to all the Suntup taped up goodness that will be arriving in the coming months.

Things are heating up here. Making final preparations for the Horns shipment. There's a lot of prep work up front because of the 'extras' like the foam inserts, the custom printed mailer boxes, etc.

[MikeDuke]

Nice. Very exciting news Paul.

[zelig]

We fixed several typos and errors in the text of the trade edition. Worked closely with Nicholas Levin who is Ira’s son. He knows that book so well and helped clarify some items during the proofing stage. I met him in NYC. Looks a lot like his dad. Great guy.

[The Library Policeman]

Really looking forward to my S/L of Horns. You just know it’s going to be class.

[Hunchback Jack]

Absolutely. I've been on collecting hiatus for a while, so having a gorgeous Suntup Horns S/L arrive on my doorstep will be a real treat. With two more S/Ls still on the way!

Similar to the mailer boxes for the limited and lettered Misery.

[zelig]

The book is in a box (enclosure) and that box is in another box (‘mailer’) and then that box is in another box (shipping box). It’s like the book version of a Russian doll!

Looks like I be spending another half hour to undue all the tape and clean up the popcorn. But it will be worth it.

There is no popcorn and the only box that has tape is the shipping box. I’ve moved away from peanuts and use the foam inserts. It’s a good amount of extra prep-work (they need to be designed and die cut to fit not only the book but also a standard size shipping box), but I prefer this method for several reasons.

ONE HAS to be less worry about any damage. I mean, you have to have the least of any company. I HATE (ABHOR) packing peanuts... you have the best packing I have ever seen. I am glad to hear it will be a thing from now on Paul. Awesome sauce brother!

[zelig]

It’s a lot of extra work and also an expense, but for now that is the plan. It started with the rebound IT. And I implemented it in Suntup from Misery. Not all books will have the printed ‘mailer’ though. For me the foam serves two purposes. Protection during shipment and that of presentation, which enhances the experience.

This is so true! I have never kept boxes/shipping materials before, but so far I have for all of my Suntup editions. It has been fun to share some of the experience of the unboxing with friends/family, when I'm showing off the collection, and it's been a great way to protect the books in the middle of a big move I'm currently doing.

It's very much appreciated, Paul. The packing method you use is second to none, and gives enormous peace of mind to your customers. Unpacking the Misery S/L - my first experience with your method - was a great experience, and a large part of that was recognizing immediately that the chance of any damage in transit was vanishingly small.

I’m getting such a Billy Mays vibe from Paul today. I’d say we’re about two more successful launches away from him posting videos of him running over one of his packages with a 58 Plymouth Fury and then opening the package to show zero damage being done to the book inside

I enjoy showing someone the pictures of the upcoming Rosemary's baby...and then explain it started from someone doing the Dragon Rebound projects where it was something born out of creative love of books. Unparalleled story of origination for me so far on publishers...I am sure I don't know all the details of the story, but that's the interpretation I get.

Respectfully disagree as you’re a great salesmen - the teaser vids and your transparency with production are like collector catnip. In all seriousness I’d put your products inside a Venn diagram that includes the sheen and mystique of (pre-Cook) Apple products, the simple and straight forward mastery of Seinfeld’s stand up writing structure, (set-up, punchline, tag...no unnecessary fluff) and the philosophy of Bruce Lee that stems from practicing one thing 10,000 times instead of trying to master 10,000 things

And of course packaging akin to those old ziploc commercials where the tiger couldn’t figure out what was inside the bag bc it was so well protected

This one is coming along well. It's clearly a complex box, so we started out by making a prototype which is pictured below. After carefully reviewing this, I came up with a list of 8-10 items that needed to be tweaked or modified. We had to make some dummy books in order to size the inner cradle correctly, and we refined the swivel mechanism as well as the way the lid is attached to the outer box. Anyway, now that all of the refinements are clear, we are in the process of making the boxes for the run. It is shaping up to be a real beauty.

Sounds and looks great. I picked up a nice 1st of RB recently, which made me start thinking about this edition, lettered and numbered. I’m looking forward to them all getting together:) Thanks for the sneak peek.

No problem. The books are moving along. All three editions. Still planning on shipping this some time after Horns.

I think it is cool that you grab fine 1st's of the books Paul puts out. I know another chap doing that to... makes me want to!

[jeffingoff]

Gorgeous! As expected. And I could use a Suntup Edition right about now. Just what the doc ordered.

While we are asking, what was the answer on the Knives & Chains upcoming announcement or did I just miss it?

[Munnecom]

Nothing has been announced yet. I think the plan is to announce once Horns has shipped - though I certainly wouldn't complain if Paul decided to unveil it sooner... say, tomorrow? Yes? Yes?

This reminds me that I still need a 1st Horns and 1st Road as well:)

[lotuz]

This reminds me that I still need a 1st Horns and 1st Road as well:)

Later McCarthy firsts are pretty easy - everything after All The Pretty Horses had giant print runs. Even the ARC print run was huge for The Road!

Of everything Paul's done, I think firsts of The Haunting of Hill House are the rarest, especially in Fine condition...

I tried for awhile to find nice firsts of everything that Centipede put out, but even a production schedule of ~20 books/year, combined with the rarity of some of them, made it too difficult. Paul's production is more my speed for this sort of 1st/1st collecting... And HHH is a really nice cross-collecting treat because Paul shared early on that the design for the lettered book was inspired by the first edition cover :rose: (which I’m sure you knew!)

For pretty much every release, there will be a Lettered and Numbered. I do have one book scheduled which I am only releasing as a Lettered. It's the only one out of everything currently in the pipeline that will just have a Lettered, so this is a rare occurrence. I am also planning on doing a Roman Numeral edition in the future. As for AGE's, these were pretty much handled on a case by case basis, but going forward if an edition is printed Letterpress, there will most likely be an AGE as well.

Any hint/tease/riddle on how someone becomes eligible to buy a roman numeral version?

Any hint/tease/riddle on how someone becomes eligible to buy a roman numeral version?

Well... I have not thought that through yet, but there would be no way to become "eligible" for it. I'd like to make it as fair as possible for everyone. Of course, due to the extreme scarcity of it, there are those who will miss out. But at the same time, the pricing will be up there so it may exclude some people from being in the running anyway. So either it just goes up for sale, and the fastest draw in the west wins, or we could do a lottery. Just haven't put any thought into that yet.

[knightmare]

Obviously do what feels right, but I think fastest fingers on the internet doesn't give a good glimpse at what this will deserve.

I am not one of them, but I think your trusted folk could be part of a draw. Perhaps actual creative scratch offs that can be bought and if you don't win then the ticket cost can be used towards future purchase and if you do....then you obviously win :)

Anyway, I hope I get a shot and money won't be what holds me back.

[jeffingoff]

Oh, uh, yesssss . . . That’s the message I was sending. I was trying to be subtle. But since you’ve decided to hold negotiations in the public sphere, I would happily settle for every numbered edition you produce in perpetuity. That should shut me up. And I hope you appreciate how merciful I’m being by not demanding a lettered or Roman numeral edition subscription. I’m a very reasonable man.

I gotta say I’m a little confused by what my cameras picked up in your office. All those skinned Kermits are unsettling.

Just to make sure I understand, that means I'll get the ones that are released going forward and all past ones have to be purchased separately to catch up correct?

I noticed that one I really wanted was sold out but most are still available.

Yeah, sorry it's an inside joke. I'm going through a huge mess with an insurance company (AAA) a restoration company, and a bunch of apathetic lawyers. It's really idiotic and I've launched a social media campaign to get it resolved. The sage involves a gun waving psychopath insurance adjuster, identity theft, and tons of verbal abuse.

Yes, single volume but although the trade edition is over 1000 pages, because of the unique design and page size we came up with for this, it will come in at a good number under 1000. Still pretty thick though. But again, I'm getting ahead of myself here. It's not Monte Cristo.

Paul's 1,000 pager is going to be the comprehensive and complete, FINISHED, first-ever-anywhere edition of King's THE PLANT!

Just my guess.

[knightmare]

I'll go ahead and guess.

The Way of Kings, Stormlight Archive #1 is over 1000 pages and if you like Sanderson this one is an obvious love by many.

[NiceM]

Tolkien

[jsmcmullen92]

I'll go ahead and guess.

The Way of Kings, Stormlight Archive #1 is over 1000 pages and if you like Sanderson this one is an obvious love by many.

Sanderson has his own press DragonSteel and I believe Stormlight is already under works with that. (and he sells through subterranean)

[knightmare]

Does that make it exclusive, though? I know he does his own leather-bound of Mistborn etc. and SubPress likes to have exclusive deals but for my purposes I do not care if someone else has done it. What Suntup is doing with books elevates it to art on another level. The signature of Sanderson is not of any value b/c he signs anything and even sells signed books off his site for a song...but I could imagine an amazing presentation better than some leather bound in traycase as SubPress does with almost every lettered edition.

On the other hand, I am under the impression that Suntup is working to do titles without limited editions recently done so you make a good point.

[zelig]

As a very general rule, I tend to stay away from publishing an edition of a book if there is already a limited from another publisher. This could be the collector in me saying that we just don't need another limited of that one.

So I will look to see what has been done before, and by which press. Then with that knowledge, I will make a decision. Even though I follow this basic rule, there are definitely times when I will still publish the novel, despite the fact that it has already been done.

Several factors play a part in that decision, one of which is the book itself. If it's a big classic story, I may feel that it just needs a Suntup edition of it. Another factor is related to what sort of job the other publishers did with it. Sure, our books tend to stand alone from the typical limited edition, but there are times where I feel that the previous publisher did a great job of it, and there is no point in doing my own version. Just like some movies don't need a sequel. Then of course, the converse to that is also true. If I feel the previous edition didn't quite do the book justice, then I will take it on.

And then there are publishers who have done several books from a certain author, and I tend to stay away from that because I respect the long-term relationship between publisher and author. Koontz and Charnel come to mind, McCammon and Sub Press, Sanderson as well. Also, existing contracts may prevent these and others I may have my sights on. So lots of variables come into play.

Right now, I have a good mix of first-time limited publications, and an SE take on some classics.

[MikeDuke]

Well, whatever and however you are doing it, it seems to be working. And I have no guess for the mystery 1000 page book if you get a chance to do it. Just keep up the great work. I know I am excited to see what's next.

Your sensibilities as a collector make all the difference to your press. The books you pick, the way you pack, and how you announce each new release I think all come from that. Also, you're an artist approaching each book as a unique work, finding and delivering on the defining concept. It's really spectacular. And I'm glad you consider what's been done and what should be done before deciding on what to do. BUT I think you can definitely get away with doing new limited editions for books that have existing limited editions. I don't mind. Not one bit. So I'm thrilled to see that you're open to that.

I agree with that :).

[webstar1000]

I would like to give a shout out to Paul. I was tasked with helping a chap to find a Cujo. He had his letter from EOTD up and did not get to order it. He had some shit going on in his life and missed the window and thus Paul moved on and his letter went to the next in line. He was devastated. Here is where the story gets interesting. The person would not give up the book. I can understand that... They did not care that his set was going to be broken. SO, I started asking around to a few guys that may want to sell theirs. My thoughts for my buddy was... If I can get another copy for him, the guy with his letter might not care as long as he is getting the book. I found a DH and Cujo double letter that he could buy. The other buyer was fine with the swap of letters and the world was righted again. However...... when the book arrived he posted his shock (AND MINE TOO!) that not only did he get the other variant color of DH BUT IT WAS SIGNED!!!! Well, at first glance I was stunned. He had it posted on the King Facebook I run and he was over the moon. Chad (honkytonk) who is one of the guys that runs it with me... said he didn't like the signature. I looked again. FAR to large. He was right... we were convinced it was fake. Chad, played the bad guy and told him. Now, he was not mislead as we did not know it was signed but in my eyes this copy is defaced and the value has dropped a lot. I asked the seller if he knew it was signed and he did! He thought I knew and I did not but he in fact purchased this and sent it in to Paul. Paul's job is not to evaluate signatures or even look at what is sent in so he would have no idea. And nor did the seller. He was shocked we found it fake.

HERE is where Paul deserves a shout out. He comes on the thread under the post and OFFERS to help. He, at his cost, offers to take the book back and repair it by removing that defaced page and replacing it with a clean one. I do not know of any other publisher owner that would do that. I mean do not get me wrong, there are others out there that will help (CD has numerous times) but to just offer and take on that hassle when he is clearly BUSY as hell trying to get books signed and put out? It shows what kind of guy we are dealing with here as a publisher. I sincerely hope more authors find out about this guy and start to come to him because they want no other to care for their work and livelihood. Kudos for the help on this when you didn't have to brother. You again prove why I am honored to be a lifer with you and your company:) Cheers mate, kris

[MikeDuke]

Great story Kris. It clearly shows the class of Paul. And just as you feel honored to be a lifer, I feel lucky that I just fell into this by accident.

[jeffingoff]

WOW! Thanks for sharing that story, Kris! What a fantastic thing to do Paul! Really. It shows that you know how much these books mean to your customers and how seriously you take that relationship. CHEERS!

[zelig]

Aw shucks, thanks Kris. Just doing what's right.

[Hunchback Jack]

Great story, Kris, and that was very generous of you, Paul.

Paul, regarding your choice of Suntup Edition projects, do you have a preference of standalone books over books in a series? You seem to have focused on the former to date; would you consider the latter?

Can someone just sneak into Paul's office when he isn't looking and steal his production files? The waiting and the guessing and the hoping are killing me!

TOTALLY with you on that. I don't even own Finders Keepers. It might be an unpopular opinion, but Holly Gibney annoyed the living hell out of me. And the way Hodges' girlfriend Janey wrinkled her nose all the time drove me nuts. I only mention this because it's odd for King characters to chafe me so much. Maybe I just needed a hug at the time.

Anyway, this isn't the Bill Hodges thread this is the Suntup thread and if Paul does the Hodges trilogy I will try to buy the shit out of them.

It's very easy to figure out. The files are color coded. And there is a pattern to how they are laid out. Look closely. If you can't figure it out, take a piece of graph paper and color the boxes left to right the same order as the files.
It's easier if you repeat the pattern at least four times, then look at the sheet.

I watched the DH autograph situation unfold over on FB. Kudos to you, Paul, for volunteering to help out the buyer. Also, well played on the production files. Mostly though, as everyone said above, keep up the good work!

The color blindness tests cracked me up, HBJ.

[MikeDuke]

Just ordered my Suntup art portfolio for Horns. I wonder if Paul will do some for the other books even though they may not have as many color pictures.
But I figured I might as well have the complete set.

[Munnecom]

Wow, the artwork for Horns looks fantastic! I only looked at the thumbnails to avoid spoiling the experience when I have the book in hand, but even those are gorgeous.

I'm torn on whether to get this portfolio. I want to collect everything with "my" number on it, but I don't collect artwork and the shipping costs + import duties would be almost as much as the portfolio itself... Sometimes, living across the Atlantic sucks.

When I was young I wanted to be a pilot. I was given an eye test. They told me that since I was good at math I could be the navigator. :wtf:

I have what I consider normal vision. Go figure. I can differentiate colors. I have trouble when they are blended together though.

It's an already limited pre-order aimed at previous customers. I assume it will be available for a little while.

[MikeDuke]

209 left last time I checked. My guess is that it will still be there in two days.

[zelig]

209 left last time I checked. My guess is that it will still be there in two days.

The inventory value I put up there is just the max run I will do. The final run will be based on how many pre-orders I get, and I'll cut that off at some point so I have a final number.

Got you. I saw that part but maybe I missed when pre-order will finish. Anyway, good stuff Paul. But I am sorry if I was giving out wrong info.
P.S Is there a chance these will be sent out with the book or will this be after the book.
Thanks Paul.

These will be shipped after Horns is released. Which will be soon.

I'm torn on whether to get this portfolio. I want to collect everything with "my" number on it, but I don't collect artwork

I had the same hesitation, but went with it. Partly because the portfolio has artwork in it that wasn't used in the book, and partly because I want a complete Suntup set for my number.

HBJ

[amd013]

I guess for me it doesn't matter, since my number is 12, but just wondering how the number matching works if you want to match #222, but say for example you are only printing 175 portfolios. Will it say #222 of 175?

[knightmare]

Given that he was willing to match to a letter, my guess is that after 175 purchases they match it and it isn't with the /175 designation. I'm sure we will find out soon.

[zelig]

It will be designated non-sequentially. So the limitation page will read something like this: "Of 150 portfolios printed, this is copy 222".

[Munnecom]

Didn't you do the same thing for the Misery paperweight?

Out of interest, do you know how many of those you ended up making? Did the entire run of 150 cubes sell out?

[Brian861]

I figured out what book Paul is doing that involves chains. SLOB by Rex Miller. And yes I know Centipede did that one already.

Thanks All! It's a beautiful book.

Pop quiz. I mean pop free books.

I have two copies of the Misery AGE without a slipcase going for the special price of zero dollars. Today only. Get them while supplies last. This deal won't be repeated.. yadda yadda... First two members to reply here (not PM) will get a copy each. Free Media Mail postage in the USA. Outside USA will have to pay postage. Happy Friday. I mean, Happy Thursday.

What a badass :thumbsup:

Wait a second! What did Paul mean by "Happy Friday. I mean, Happy Thursday." ???? It's a goddamned clue is what it is! He could have easily edited that replacing Thursday with Friday since he obviously caught the error before posting! So what does it mean? I'll tell you it means he's doing an edition of Robinson Caruso!

Ordered my HORNS art portfolio the other day. There was never any question about it.

That Lettered THE ROAD video you released today was so very cool. I’m going to pretend my numbered edition is bound the same way.

Cool little giveaway, Paul, no matter what Jerome says. Congrats, guys!

That video is cool as hell! I thought I was excited for Rosemary, but the Road is coming on strong:)
