Didn't know where else to put this.....

Damned is up on Amazon with a September 6th 2011 release date and a 256 page count.

So the reason there is a delay on this book being released is because Chucks Publishers didn't have the last 3 or so chapters of the book. They kept bitching to Chuck that they didn't like the ending, and didn't realize for months that they were missing said chapters. Even though He kept asking them what they were talking about and asked on several occasions if they had the full thing.

I just made that up.

Perhaps this thread could be moved to the Damned forum.

We have one, right?

Okay, yeah, we don't, and I don't have permission to create anything actually useful there.

for big houses, generally. for small publications, not so much. so, yeah; chuck's future release dates are mostly accurate. unless, of course, if somebody actually misplaces several of the final chapters of a book before it goes to press. but i still think tuffy started that rumor :S

Forget Amazon, shop at the St.Helens Book shop. It will be the same price and you can get it inscribed.
They dont have anything up now, but they will soon enough.
If you go on the right way you might even run into Chuck.
Or get a Damned shirt for the winter.

I skipped his last two books but I'll probably pic this one up. The premise intrigues me.

Chuck's free-floating press agent/promotional liaison, and Official Cult Sammich Inquisitor. Your enthusiasm continues to impress me.

Frighten me a little, too....but, yeah.

I know the St.Helens Book Shop people and have for a long time. They have hooked me up with lots of Random Chuck Merchandise and stuff from other local author. They have been good to me given me some great deals, and I feel if I can pimp them out, that might repay them a bit. Plus I helped design the shirts to I have to show them off.
I am a well of useless knowledge.

Yeah, that's an awful shirt. And a pretty weak quote, too.

Here's to hoping the book is better. Still am yet to read Tell-all. Probably should get onto that soon.

Chuck Picked the quote. I helped pick the other ones. They had to keep the design simple due to cost.

Hey, I understand keeping costs down, and I even understand what those costs are because I deal with getting our shirts printed. But we rather make less profit and offer something that looks decent and is good quality. While we're at it, they're charging $10.75 to ship those things!

You mean, May, right, Kabol? You were hoping for May, like his last couple? Frankly, I'm glad to see him knocking the release date back a bit. I'm sort of looking forward to this one, which is nice.

I kinda got used to his books always coming out that first week of May, right around my birthday. It's going to be weird.

They could have still had a pretty cheap shirt with a better looking design than that.. the number of colors used affects the total cost more than the intricacy of the design. That thing looks like someone made it in Word. I don't know why anyone would buy it, especially when you add in the exorbitant shipping cost.

I mean, even taking the quote out of that horrendous square and just having white text on a black shirt would make it bearable.

Sounds like we need to have a Damned T-shirt design contest.
