We’re working hard to catch up with our hardcover publication schedule in 2024. In some cases, we’re at the mercy of overworked and understaffed printers and case manufacturers, but these companies are committed to helping us get back to a normal release schedule, and Dan Franklin is learning the ropes to help keep things moving.
Here are updates on just some of our projects in progress:
The Best of Cemetery Dance 2 Lettered Edition
Traycases are finished and approved, and we expect to ship in 1-2 weeks.
So Cold the River
Books are finished at press, waiting on the final approval copy to arrive at office. Expect to ship in 2 weeks after that.
Stephen King Revisited
Rolling at press, expect to ship in 6-8 weeks.
Little Boy (unannounced)
Rolling at press, expected in 8-10 weeks, will be announced closer to publication.
The Stand
Books are at the press and we expect them to finish their work this summer. Slipcases and Traycases will be later in summer because we need finished books to get the sizing just right. For a book of this size, a dummy book isn’t reliable, and we want to be sure they’re perfect.
A Face in the Crowd Artist Edition
The books finished and in hand! Slipcases should be finished in 6 weeks.
A Face in the Crowd Lettered Edition
At the hand binder, who is also making the Traycases. Will ship as each batch of 10-12 copies are sent to us.
Gwendy’s Final Task Limited & Lettered
Sig sheets are signed and the books are at the binder. We’re expecting to ship this summer.
Gwendy’s Magic Feather Lettered Edition
Wooden feathers are completed. Books are finished and in warehouse. Traycases are being worked on at the manufacturer now.
Shocklines
Rolling at press and expected in 8-10 weeks.
We’ll share more news on these as they get closer to shipping, and we thank you for your continuing enthusiasm and support!
From our friends at the Bloody Good Reads podcast:
Ben Chalmers is a successful novelist. His wife, Rachel, is a fledgling artist with a promising career, and their daughter, Stacy, is the joy of their lives. Ben’s novels have made enough money for him to provide a dream home for his family. But there is a force at work-a dark, chilling, ruthless force that has become part of the very fabric of their new home.
To celebrate the Spooky Season, the Kindle version of Widow’s Point by Richard Chizmar & Billy Chizmar is 
The days are getting shorter, and the wind blows cold from the north. After the maple and oak leaves turn from green to bright reds, golds, and oranges, they wither, fall, and die, clattering like old bones as they blow down the street in the twilight. The sun isn’t as bright as it used to be, and the nights are dark and cold and long. This is the time of the harvest the time of Hallowe’en and a time for reminiscences of the summer just past and of other summers, now long gone. This is a time of mystery and expectation as the earth prepares for the frigid onslaught of winter.
Halloween is approaching and the small town of Shington is excited to begin their annual festivities, which they call The Celebration. But something is different this year… Something is wrong…
Norman Partridge’s Halloween novel, Dark Harvest, was chosen as one of Publishers Weekly‘s 100 Best Books of 2006. A Bram Stoker Award winner and World Fantasy nominee, Partridge’s rapid-fire tale of a small town trapped by its own shadows welcomed a wholly original creation, the October Boy, earning the author comparisons to Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, and Shirley Jackson.
