You must be psychic, I just asked my publisher that. Five days ago they replied in part, “The art department is still working on it, and we expect to have something soon.” There is a ‘place holder’ illustration in the Minotaur Winter catalogue that won’t be the final art. They’ll send me a .jpg and I’ll post it here the minute I get it, I promise!

Hi Dana,

Any news on the cover art for Whisper to the Blood?

Hope all is well.

I’ll have to check the movie out. In the early 80’s I was in High School, learning to speak English. When I came home I plopped down and turned on the TV, just decompressing. When my mom questioned my choices, I informed her that watching English-language programs will speed up my progress. I learned tons from Battlestar Galactica, Scooby Doo, and the *original* Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Go heroes on a half-shell, YEAH!) Galactica rocks. Some of those plots were so good I still remember them.

Reprint! Reprint! Reprint!

And, Kate rocks! Dana may not want to say anything, but I’d recommend Breakup…as long as you don’t mind starting into the series.

Ah ! BOOKS ! Found a new author - - - Daniel Abraham - fantasy ala Ursala Le Guin’s Left Hand Of Darkness . Always thought G. Lucas went in the wrong direction . Next trilo should have been post EMPIRE with an older Leia and Han and a next generation . No way to rehabilitate Darth Vader . He killed a planet fullof people !

Are you kidding me? You don’t want to bother with one of my books, you’re reading the good stuff (everybody, go here to see the good stuff: http://forum.galacticwatercooler.com/forumdisplay.php?f=25). Besides, my three little sf novels are long out of print.

About B. Fett–I always thought he was cool, especially when he gives that little nod to Leia-as-bounty-hunter in the beginning of Jedi, right after she fakes out Jabba with the thermal detonator. Oh yeahhhhhh.

I’m glad you now understand why Fett was cool. Lucas never did.

I don’t know if you follow the GWC forum at all, but we have a book club as well. Which of your novels would you recommend as a candidate?
