Yes.

Any possibility of seeing the "Cauldron of Ghosts" E-Arc by Christmas.


Chance, yes. Likely, no.--Toni

Hm. I have to say that I'll hope for such an outcome as well. Because whatever bad things may or may not happen to the upcoming HotQ movie - there's no chance in hell that it'll be even remotely as bad as the ensuing political trainwreck. On the contrary, however bad it (hopefully not!) turns out to be, in comparison to the described political situation, it'll appear to be overly magnificent. :P

Heck, Willow Palin might even play Honor Harrington.


Try to be mindful that some of us here are of different political stripes. Keep the politics out of here. There are plenty of other places for that.

Cauldron of Ghosts has been in some stage of "done" since before ART came out. If you go back in the forums a ways you'll find David debating whether it or Shadow of Freedom should be next.

The hangup was the last set of revisions to make it fit with whatever David has decided is going to happen when Henke hits Mesa. At least, that's my understanding, which may be all wet. Hopefully he and Eric got whatever the issue was figured out at Honorcon, they applied the appropriate amount of authorial duct tape, and the final draft is at Baen.

Awesome sauce!

Bobby pins? Super Glue? Bungie cords?

They should bring the movie out in 2015.

Given the contrast between the current, ongoing political trainreck, even Jayne Fonda's BARBARELLA would be a masterpiece.

I should be careful to tell my political jokes very s-l-o-w-l-y so that people of other political stripes can understand them.

:D It would probably help if you shared with your victims, uh, that is, your audience, some sizable quantities of your medicinal herbs. That is, if there is any left over that is not committed to your personal contribution to global warming.

Wait! Never mind.

Leftovers!

What was I thinking?

8-) 8-) 8-) ;)

I am a Ford/Bush 1 Republican.

Today, I think that a Ford/Bush 1 Republican is somewhere left of what is commonly castigated as a Communist.

But, in the case of leftovers, it was just a momentary lapse. I definitely know better.
