no, The Advent will not be out for Christmas
While we’re discussing The Advent, I might as well correct a common (and understandable) misconception: The Advent will not be out for Christmas 2009. It WILL, Lord willing, be out for Christmas 2010.
The good news is that I filled a couple of pages with notes today, and I think they qualify as an official start. Leastwise I hope they do. (“Leastwise” is such a great word.)
I’m considering releasing segments to a list of e-mail subscribers for the low low cost of $2 or $5 or something like that. I would withhold the final segment until the book actually came out in print. However, I’m wondering if that would hurt the final unveiling rather than build up to it. What do you think?
AAWWWWWW MAAAAAN!
Personally, I would rather wait for the book. Thanks for updating me (again)!
On the subject of your books, I heard a song called “The Life of the Irish Rover.” The chorus goes like this:
Farewell to the tent and the old caravan
To the tinker, the gypsy, the traveling man.
Farewell to the life of the rover.
The tune is jolly and the whole thing reminded my of the gypsies (correct spelling?) in your Seventh World. Just thought I’d mention it!
By the way, I will be praying that you will get all the kinks worked out.
God bless you.
