Further incitement to zeppelin pre-orders

Fig. 1. The cover.

Later this week I’ll be updating the book site. Don’t let that stop you from pre-ordering now!

Comments

Wow, David, that is one damn beautiful cover. It reminds me a lot of the McSweeney's issue edited by Michael Chabon. I'm gonna preorder that baby just as soon as I get home.

Wow. Great painting, great design!

—— Eric Marin, 2:15 PM, Wednesday, October 13, 2004

Oh, that's awesome.

Hey, if we pre-order, would we be able to pick up our copy at WFC? Or not? How's this working?

—— Jon Hansen, 3:19 PM, Wednesday, October 13, 2004

Good question. If I were you I'd drop Deb Layne an email at Wheatland (inquiries@wheatlandpress.com) and see what the deal is. You might just want to buy it at WFC directly.

Dude. This cover simply ROCKS. I absolutely love the layout, typography, art -- everything. You have brought a thing of beauty into the world.

Thanks!

(I’m passing all these compliments along to Lara, by the way. She can’t make it to WFC, but maybe if some of you come to NASFiC next year we can drag her out to dinner.)

Wow! Gorgeous artwork! I can't imagine anything more fitting :) This comes out at the end of the month, right?

—— Andrew Nicolle, 8:29 PM, Wednesday, October 13, 2004

I'd recommend pre-ordering and requesting a pickup at WFC if that's what you want.

Hey, David, can we get some ultra-hi-rez to use as desktop backgrounds? I'm using this one right now, but my resolution is making it not as glorious as it really is.

—— JeremyT, 6:57 AM, Thursday, October 14, 2004

Hey, good idea. I’ve just put up links to three sizes of wallpaper (none of them quite the right aspect ratio for a computer screen, but what can you do — I blame the computer screens) at the bottom of the All-Star Stories page.

Man, you have a bee-you-tee-full baby! Perfectly pulpy...very nice.
