NOTE TO REGULAR MONTHLY READERS: Additions or changes in blue.

NOTE: Always check Brian’s Area Messages/Breaking News as there may be something there that is not in the monthly update. If there is not enough info I’ll just do one bi-monthly.

PUBLICATIONS: (Please keep in mind that all dates are tentative and subject to change.)

<font color='blue'>Ebay Listings</font> I shall be putting this on the MessageBoard as well. … I have been having lots of problems with ebay these days … due to EU Regulations, why Brown gave over so much of our say to Brussels … well, it’s done now. In any event, over a certain amount of items listed I no longer had the option to pay for visibility on .com. So … Americans … be sure you look at both .com and .co.uk or you’ll miss out on many things.

<font color='blue'>Lifetime Achievement Award</font> I am very pleased to announce that Brian is being presented the Lifetime Achievement Award at the World Fantasy Convention, Columbus Ohio this weekend. The other two recipients of the award are Peter Straub and Terry Pratchett. Sorry we couldn’t let any one know we were attending. We didn’t know until ten days before the convention, while I was in the States visiting my Mom. Needless to say I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get the travel arrangements made.

<font color='blue'>Due to an unexpected trip to the States, again. The dates will change for the listing. I’ll try to get a listing to go off on November 6 & 7 while I’m in the States if not it will be the 13 & 14th.</font> I have been busy working on my Christmas Ebay items. I will let you all know on the MessageBoard when I actually get the listings up. Got lots of stuff. Went through all the boxes, trunks, chests and shelves. And even raided Brian’s study.

WHAT’S IN THE WORKS: (Please keep in mind that items are always subject to change.) Once I have an actual publication date an item will move up to the Publications section.

Brian is now working on a Necroscope short story ... whether or not it will turn into a novella is unknown. <font color='blue'>It has now turned into a novella.</font> And he also has another story festering in his head but whether it comes or not who knows?

Spring 2011. The Fly-By-Nights, a short novel. A vampire story but not Necroscope related. Subterranean Press has sent a contract on this and Bob Eggleton will be doing the cover. More info when available.

Ghoul Warning. Peter Crowther of PS Publishing is doing a the poetry book again with Carson’s original artwork. He’ll probably have Dave do more but I’m not sure of that as yet. More info when available. http://store.pspublishing.co.uk/

Dreamlands Series Fall 2011 ... tentative. Tor Books. Re-issue ... new Sword & Sorcery jackets ... omnibus editions. Two novels in three books. More info when available.

Lots of stuff going on here ... many reissues in the works ... new jackets. Many will be in the Nec series ... but House of Doors & Maze of Worlds with significant jacket changes. More info when available.
