I have to agree with this
I don't.
Asking someone to talk about their former employer and "dish out the dirt" is poor form.
I believe she did bring the subject up
I am a customer of Donald M Grant Publishers -- I purchased artist editions of LSOE, TWTHK, i have all the Grant Gunslinger Books . i purchased from their website = GS BOOKS 2, 3, 4 Black HOuse and Talisman all 7 slipcases purchased directly from them. the providence of the others are in question, but someone bought them from grant and I bought from them!
I think this subject has been "talked" about for years. A true mystery. I would truly like this to be cleared up so we can move on. Before it gets buried again. I never intended to unwrap my copy until the "possibility" of a remark was brought up again. If the remarks were not available to the public then Donald M GRant books should so state. I gave them an opportunity to address this, but they simply stated all copies were sold out. Just tell us what happened and move on. A "Cover UP" is what gets everyone in trouble eventually.
I am not looking for gossip, stories or innuendo. Just the truth. I think I can handle the truth. No one ever got into trouble for telling the truth. (Lernt that from my gramma). I dont need a dirty secret or long drawn out story. I am not trying to slander or put down a company (couldnt do it if i tried). Just let me know if when i ordered my books, did i really have a chance to get a remarked copy. Was it a book selling ploy or a real possibility?
This is on their website:
Michael Whelan told us that he did drawings on 30 - 50 of the signature pages when he was signing them and we have no idea which numbered copies they ended up in. He sent us photos of two of them and one is posted here. If you receive one of these be aware that the value of these books are probably in excess of $1,000 as copies of the Artist Edition of THE DARK TOWER VII in which Michael made similar drawings sold on ebay or to collectors for over $1,200 each. I expect that most of these copies will remain undiscovered for years as many collectors never take the shrink wrap off their books.
I hate stories without endings, if someone would like to PM me with the true story, I CAN KEEP A SECRET (if you insist it be kept secret). Otherwise i will lose sleep over the endless possibilities.
