rolanniLiaden Universe® Big Bang on the Horizon
If all goes well and the creek don't rise, Baen Webscriptions will be publishing the Liaden Universe®, an electronic bundle of every single SRM Publisher Adventures in the Liaden Universe® chapbook ever published, from Two Tales of Korval straight through to Allies on July 15 -- that's next Sunday! Check the Webscriptions page for more information.
SRM Publisher Sellouts
Liaden Universe® Companion Volume One is now Officially Sold Out. Plans are in the works to do a mass market edition. Watch this space for more news on that project.
The Ace editions of the Liaden Universe® books that have been on sale through the SRM Genre Shop have also sold out.
"Misfits" Accepted and Scheduled and...
Liaden Universe® novella "Misfits" (aka The Story of the Weatherman and What Became of Him) has been turned in to Jim Baen's Universe and accepted by Eric "Lightnin'" Flint for publication in the December issue.
Not only that, but the first half of the story is available here. There is no charge to read this excerpt; you do not have to register. You do, however, have to wait until December to get the rest of the story. Fair warning.
Liaden Universe® Companion Volume Two
Pre-orders are still being accepted for LUC #2, scheduled for August publication by SRM Publisher. This volume is 100 percent funded by subscription, so those who pre-order are a vital -- and necessary! -- part of the project. Thanks to everyone who is helping to make this possible!
Meisha Merlin Books in Stock
As reported in our last issue, Meisha Merlin has gone out of business. Lee and Miller collected some of their earned royalties in the form of books, which are being sold through the SRM website. If you're looking for Lee and Miller books, please consider shopping here first.
Author Disappearances
Sadly, neither Sharon nor Steve will be able to attend NASFiC this year. Deadlines, budget lines, and inconveniently scheduled medical procedures conspired to make the trip impossible. We're very sorry about this; we'd been looking forward to seeing everyone, and, frankly, conventions are 'way more fun than going to the hospital.
At the moment, the next convention Lee and Miller are certain to attend is Boskone, in February 2008, and we do intend to make next year's WorldCon, in Denver.
Balance of Trade Featured
Balance of Trade is the featured "starter" in the latest issue of Bookstarter, a broadsheet-and-web publication designed to give readers a taste of a good book... the newest issue of Bookstarter hit the stands in Central Maine this week.
Ebayers Take Note!
From time to time kinzel3hb9 has been putting certain rare items up for bid on Ebay. Recent auctions included a hardcover edition of I Dare; a numbered tree-and-dragon silver pin; an original Del Rey bundle. So, look for kinzel's auctions -- next batch goes up soon!
