UPDATE on CHRISTMAS SHIPPING:
Our warehouse will be closed for shipping from Dec. 23 to Dec. 27. We will open again the following week so any orders placed on the site next week WILL NOT SHIP until the week of Dec. 27. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.
UPDATE on THE STAND: (11/18/2024)
THE BOOKS ARE IN OUR WAREHOUSE! The Stand exists, both Artist and Gift Editions 🙂
That being said, the cases are not yet finished, so they are NOT shipping yet. Soon. We first need to get the finished slipcases/traycases in from manufacturing, and they’re currently developing samples for us. We’ll have updates soon, but… almost there!!!
UPDATE on SHIPPING: (12/23/2024)
Cemetery Dance Magazine #79 the regular paper version is HERE! We are shipping them from our warehouse so we can use envelopes so it will take longer than normal to ship since the printer isn’t drop shipping them. WE WILL UPDATE THIS PAGE AGAIN WHEN WE START TO SHIP THEM in January.
FAQ
Q) Why does my tracking information say “Label Created?
A) In the past we used to print the labels in batches AS we packed them but now we pint them ALL AT ONCE to save us time. Once the labels are printed, emailed are sent with tracking information. FOR EVERYONE. So if we have 100s or even 1000s of orders, it takes us days or weeks to ship them all so many will see “Label Created” when they click on their tracking UNTIL their package goes out the door and then it will show movement.
Q) Why is my Artist Edition waiting on a Lettered Edition signature?
A) Our printer has a minimum run they are willing to print, so we frequently have to simultaneously print the lettered and the artist editions. This can lead to delays on some artist editions. We request your patience in providing the absolute best product possible!
Q) What does “pre-printing check” mean?
A) Many of these projects were previously deemed “Ready for Printer” but they were designated as such long before the current team’s time. In an effort to avoid errors or potential miscommunication, one last proofing/design check may be required, simply to satisfy our paranoia! You’ve waited this long, now we want to make sure you are fully satisfied with your final product.
Q) Why aren’t all the “ready for printer” things actively printing?
A) We are working on catching our projects up, item by item, but it does take time! We had several years of production difficulties while we continued to prepare projects for printing. Our preferred printer is small (tiny compared to the previous one!) and can only handle so many tasks at a given time. Their quality, however, is great. We are chipping at the block of prepped projects but if you have inquiries about specific ones, please feel free to contact us!
Q) Where are the products not on the list?
A) The list is NOT all-encompassing. Other publisher books, grab bags, bonus items, etc., are not going on this list. Other items have not been announced, or may have simply never been added. Some items may even be printing but not yet mentioned on the list. We will attempt to continue adding and updating so that the page is better informative. Please reach out with questions for items not contained here and we’ll try to get it added.
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.

The Cemetery Dance magazine hardcovers have been in a holding pattern while we searched for a new printer who could produce this trim size with our preferred binding style (to keep them all looking the same), but we’re pleased to report we’ve found a printer and they’re printing some samples for us now.
