Cool! Congrats, Will!

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

Thanks! This has good stuff all around in it. 35 stories written to the cover. EVERYONE has the cover story!

Cool, huh?

[matthewsrotundo.livejournal.com]

Quite. Groovy concept!

[marshall-payne.livejournal.com]

Congrat, Will! :)

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Approximately 11 on the authors list have an LJ presence. Just a side observation -- I'm thinking we like it here!

And if anyone gets this, they'll have to skip to the end for mine -- it's the closer!

[saycestsay.livejournal.com]

LJ is lovely, isn't it?

and I think your story will be the hit of the collection :).

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

Eh, more like they'll get to yours and then after close the book, feeling like they need not go farther. They will have read the finest at that point.

[alaneer.livejournal.com]

Okay, you convinced me. I just ordered it. I may not get it before I leave on the 18th though.

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

It'll be worth the wait if you miss it. Hopefully it'll come so you can take it with you!

Have a good trip!

[alaneer.livejournal.com]

That's what I'm hoping too, a last minute delivery so I could read it on the plane.

Congrats to all - truly looking forward to it!

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

Thanks, and same!

I've always loved this type of experiment - it's amazing how diverse stories can be when you might feel that they would be similar. Really neat stuff!

Congrats!

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

I bet you could have come up with an awesome bit of verse for that cover...

[camillealexa.livejournal.com]

Yay!

My story is going to be very lonely, what with all those Egypto-looking themes, and mine so. . .not.

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

Every theme should have a complement to add variety, right? Just makes yours stand out more!

[clhollandwriter]

It'll have mine for company - I delibertely avoided anything Egyptian and went for fantasy with a tiny hint of sci-fi instead. :)

[camillealexa.livejournal.com]

Me too! Except mine's all SF w/ a teeny hint of paranormal!

I suddenly feel less lonely.

[ckastens.livejournal.com]

Way to go!

[will-couvillier.livejournal.com]

It's a sweet package, and I really am happy to be a part of it.

Interesting that about half of the authors are on LJ.
