Just signed contracts to put The Keep back into print in Brazil. BestBolo is the publisher. (Yep, that's the name.)

I sent off for a free sample under an assumed name. Thought you guys would get a kick out of this.

O.K. - I just found a copy on ebay for $20 so I couldn't pass it up but now is the time for the stupid question...

What stories are in this book??

Thanks

Usually by this time of year I can find something about a new RJ book. Does anyone know when the next one will be available? Thanks in advance for any info.

Also if anyone knows anything about a new teeenage Jack book I would be interested to know that as well. Thanks again.

I usually don't see much, or any, advertising for FPW. So I was delighted when I went onto cracked.com a few minutes ago and saw this:

I have a question for the man about Haunted Air.

There is a (very minor) spoiler in it, so it is under the shottle.

An anime adaptation of a Japanese Manga series (originally in Vietnam, now in Iran...I think) with cute animals at war. Quite an amazing trailer:

I just saw the DVD, which is a companion piece to WATCHMEN - it has the full animated version of TALES OF THE BLACK FREIGHTER, the comic book-within-a-comic book in WATCHMEN (cut for time reasons from the theatrical release). Pretty nice job, very ghoulish and over-the-top, narrated by Gerard Butler. Apparently, the director's cut of WATCHMEN that will be released on DVD will restore the BLACK FREIGHTER sections, along with more of the subplot with the newsstand guy and the kid. The DVD also has UNDER THE HOOD, a 20/20 or 60 minutes-type episode from 1975 that interviews the first Nite Owl and other members of the Minutemen with documentary footage and interviews with other characters (including a great cameo comment from the Comedian) from the original book (and a commercial for Veidt product and vintage 1975 commercials, as well as a short documentary about the two features, a chapter from the weird "animated" WATCHMEN that was on iTunes (eh!) and a preview of the upcoming Green Lantern animated film.

If they restore the animated and other cut sections, as well as the usual extras (making of features, the My Chemical Romance Music video to "Desolation Row", etc.) the DVD should be giganormous.

My author copies arrove today. I guess that means yours will be shipping soon.

Just got back from one of the hotels that Stephen King stays at. Mohonk Mountain House. Believe it or not we stayed in Room 666. From what we were told King refused to stay in that room ( or any room with a 13 in it.) I wonder if FPW would stay in there???
