Ok, so now the release date is pushed to January 2006. What's up with that? The publishing company is McFarland, so I gave them a little jingle on the phone to ask why. They would offer no explanation.

Just as a wild shot, I thought some one may be fighting the release legally. Since McFarland is in Jefferson NC, I decided to give the old Ash County Courthouse a phone call. Found the person in charge of such public records is Theresa and I'm waiting on a call back from her.

I will let you know if I find anything interesting.

Now spring/summer 2006!!!!

Keith, I for one wanted to read this book a year ago. This sucks!! The most practical reason would be printing issues, but if some one if fighting it legally I might be pissed.

Light a fire under some one in publishing.

Why are you writing this CRAP? The book is in the print department as we speak. The print run is for next week and
it will be available for sale just prior to Christmas.

McFarland

I figured this was the best place to keep track of it. Is this not the publisher? Take a look and tell me what it means, they say spring/summer 2006?

A week or so ago the site said winter 2006 or January 2006, can't remember which. That was when I called McFarland to ask why, they would not give a reason. Out of the slight possibilty there was legal action, I checked with the courthouse. But they can only look it up by the Plantiff, I could only think of one name to try for that and it didn't come up with anything.

Today, I saw Jim had posted this on Milt's sight.

So something isn't adding up if you think publication is still this year.

[b]On Tuesday, I received an email from McFarland & Company's president, who told me the proofs were done and the book was on it's way to the printers.

But Milt and I spoke today and he told me that he called my editor this afternoon and the editor called down to the print shop. Then he got back on the horn and said he'd send an email when he had a print date. Tonight at 7PM, Milt called me to say the email from McFarland indicated the book would print next week.

The Schornack website was updated on Nov. 11th? That's not the latest news!

The reason there is a discrepancy is because they were going to farm-out the print to China, but perhaps they've seen some demand? In any case, the print run was changed to "in-house" so the book will be available before Christmas.

...or so we've been told.

Re: Royal info wanted
 

The book is listed on Sean Mattingly's Home page at www.ultimategto.com. We're talkin' 6 million hits per month. Under those circumstances, there may have been hundreds of orders placed with McFarland and they saw the need to switch the print run to in-house.

I have set-up a webpage for easy purchasing of the book.

Please feel free to purchase it through me and I'll sign whatever you'd like inside (G-rated only https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif)

Here's the book site:
