ur2nd, I'm not exactly sure, i would assume the printing companies would send us a proof to check before we mass produce lots of them.
I think they do but each place is different.Originally Posted by Shannon
With my small book i got a proof to look through
Love the cover art. Nice! Oh...another thing, has it been decided yet what the contributors were going to be getting??? Trade paperback or one fo the Hardcovers? Also, was the hardcover goign to have a limitation page? hand numbered???

NEED:
One For Road Signed Artist Edition, PS Publishing
The Gunslinger Viking proof
Carrie $7.95 Doubleday later printing
The signed, limited hardcover edition will have a limitation page and be hand numbered. There will be 100 of these.
The contributors copies will be hardcover editions, but not numbered. I don't know if I'll PC them or leave then blank. We'll see. There should be one for each contributor, making for around 35 copies.
Who gets the proof? The first person who asked if there will be one? Seems logical to me.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

Logic and reality do not always converge. One would presume if there is only one proof, I would be the recipient-after all, I am Shannon's Father.
Wait a minute! I thought Merlin already admitted to this?Logic and reality do not always converge. One would presume if there is only one proof, I would be the recipient-after all, I am Shannon's Father.
While you guys settle the paternity suit I'll just hold on to the proof for safekeeping.

I would suggest Shannon keep it... and that all contributions sign the proof for him during travels. It may take years to collect all the signatures, but it would be an interesting and valuable collectible to keep as a sign of "thanks" for his hard work in this project!
I like the idea, but I'm getting my thanks, don't worry.
As far as the proof goes, I'm not sure how that is gonna work. I might get three "proofs" for the three staff members, and whatever they/we want to do with them is up to them. I know I'll be keeping mine. Maybe I'll print out a fourth and auction it off. I don't expect it would go for much, but, who knows.
Oh, some big big big news coming soon, probably by this weekend.
Subject: Artists.
Thanks everyone! I'm glad you all like the cover
And yes - That is a two headed Raven/Crow.
Hannah - Is the story you are speaking of the one where I didn't like the first bird head so I painted a second one on the body and then found that 2 heads looked really cool?
Looking forward to that!
Shannon, if you auctioned off a proof, I'd certainly bid on it!

Wow Shannon, you've got some amazing artists involved there, congratulations.
(can't wait to see what Rachel does).
Very cool Shannon!
Extremely cool, I would say! This makes me all the more **** off that I decided not to enter any artwork myself. It would have been awesome to maybe have a piece alongside these great artists!
PM sent.
Very cool!
Wow, I know nothing about art or artists and even I recognize some of those names. Very exciting!
Excellent. This project looks like it is evolving nicely. Great job nailing down some artists.
