Hi Folks!
Today we have a few production updates for anyone who hasn’t had a chance to swing by our Production Status page on the website:
It: The 25th Anniversary Special Limited Edition by Stephen King
The interior design is now set and the signature sheets are with Stephen King for signing. We hope to send everything to printer in September if all goes as planned. The Gift Edition is now more than 75% sold out.
It: The 25th Anniversary Edition Limited Edition Artwork Portfolio
The signature sheets have been sent to the artists. The prototype for the portfolio itself has arrived and we’re making a few small production tweaks, but it looks incredible. One box of art prints was damaged during shipping from the printer, but they have been pulped and will be reprinted before the artists are done signing the signature sheets. This is now more than 80% sold out.
Kin by Kealan Patrick Burke:
At the printer and on schedule for a fall publication.
Gideon’s Sword by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child:
This book has been sent to the printer and is on track for a fall publication date.
Four Ghosts (Cemetery Dance Book Club 3.0 Exclusive)
This title is being proofread one last time and then it will be ready for the printer.
Four Killers (Cemetery Dance Exclusive Collectors Set #2):
The reprints have been scanned, one of the originals has arrived, and the other original is in the works.
Prince of Stories: The Many Worlds of Neil Gaiman by Hank Wagner, Christopher Golden, and Stephen R. Bissette:
We’ve added the exclusive introduction by Bill Hader to our file, and Stephen R. Bissette is hard at work on the exclusive artwork he is providing for this edition (including the cover). After that artwork is added to the book, this one will be ready for the printer.
Smoke and Mirrors edited by Richard Chizmar:
The book is all set for the printer now and we’re just waiting on the last TWO authors to sign the signature sheets. We’re hoping they’ll be able to sign during the next few months as their schedules allow.
The Mailman by Bentley Little:
Undergoing one last proofread. The author has not had a chance to sign the signature sheets yet, but we are still hoping to have this published at the end of the year.
Cemetery Dance #65 (unannounced):
This is another of our “Special Author” issues and it is now being proofread so we can send it to the printer next month.
