Welcome to DAY 5 of our "slight delay." I think I'll just stop talking about the books release... just in case I'm am jinxing it by talking too much about it. We are fixing the problem and everything should be rolling by next week. I'll just formalling announce the availability of the book when it's already in my hands. Raining again today. I feel like the weather. The NU107 Rockology at St.Scho was cancelled due to weather conditions. That was the main reason I went on leave today, so that I could promote B72 at that event. Rain Rain Go away Come again Another day ... I just want my comic book printed... geezz... I wonder if Gaiman goes through these things... On Gaiman's blog , he was talking about seeing his son off to college and bringing his youngest daughter to meet her new grade school teacher. Just makes me wonder what it's like growing up in the Gaiman household. What stories does he tell his kids? Are
Funny thing about these oracles, they're never really specific... and so our "slight delay" has reached DAY 4. Heavy rains again. Streets flooded. Traffic in most parts of the city. Had to revised some pages of the B72 because the printing press use PCs and we assemble the book in a MAC. So... the revised pages are still with me. Don't know if we'll still meet the Aug.31 release date. Ay naku... The petinent man... the petinent man... the petinent man... Anyway, after I deliver this disc tomorrow morning, everything SHOULD be fine. Read somewhere, if you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans. Funny guy, that God of ours. So, after tomorrow... count 14 days after that and we should have the books in the stores by then... or at least in Comic Quest, Megamall. ...on a holding pattern...
It has been delivered! The book is at the press and should be availble by the end of next week. Hopefully, I can get it to the stores as early as August 31. I'll be at St.Scho on the 24th, promoting the book, distributing flyers. It'll be the third and last leg of NU107's Rockology campus tour. After that I'll be joing the PULP Campus Tour. Will probably post the tour sched here and in the Alamat mailing list as soon as things are finalized. Keeping fingers (and toes) crossed that everything will go well.
