    One of my favorite parts of the new book is the Castle Rock and Derry interludes, where I bring together everything known about those two cities.

    Thanks for letting me know. My publisher didn't! It's disappointing that the date is moving this close to when it was supposed to happen, but apparently it's a transportation issue involving boats, trains, trucks and other types of locomotion.

    I feel bad for the local bookstore that had a launch day event set up for September 13...

    Apologies my french (ahah), but bloody hell : make up your mind (the publisher)!

    That ends up during my holidays though !


    (PS : dumb question... but do you think there is a possibility of getting copies signed by you and king?)

    According to my publicist: "Basically, a pub date is about four weeks from the books arriving at our distribution center. This is so there’s time for retailers and wholesalers to receive the books, and then ship to their customers. So…when it looked like books wouldn’t hit the warehouse until next month, the pubdate changed to October. Apparently books are now arriving"

    I can't imagine Steve signing a copy since it's not his book. Copies signed by me can be ordered from our local bookstore, using this link: https://checkout.square.site/buy/2GH...PJMST3NZ7E3PQY If there's an issue with shipping not being accepted, contact https://www.myvillagebooks.com/

    Today is official publication day. I've been told by a reliable source that the first printing is all but sold out from the publisher and a second printing has been ordered, so that's pretty cool news. If you want a first printing, now would be a good time to pick up a copy! Unlike with the SK Illustrated Companion, this book does have a numberline (although it's at the back of the book for some reason), so you'll be able to tell which printing you're getting.

    I ordered a copy, but have to wait for the author event to get it signed. But i forgot when that event is!
