Seriously.

.... there is a book. No, really.

I think the smart money is on this being a double-inverse-reverse prank. That is, the book has been in the works for a while, but you delayed posting about it until the 1st, knowing that you are a legendary trickster and would not be believed, only to actually produce the books at Norwescon. Ergo the real joke is that this is no joke. Am I right or am I right?

Dead-on. Either having known me for an appallingly long time has given her profound insights into my twisty little thought processes, or perhaps she's simply just as devious as I am to begin with. Your call.

kickaha also gets high marks for thinking to track down the publishing company listed on the cover graphic -- a new local small press that helix90 is involved with -- but he loses at least five points for somehow missing this page. Heh.

So, anyway, yeah. Object lesson here being, you can't trust anything I do on April Fool's Day; you can't even trust me to lie. Gotcha.

$14.95, trade paperback, 160 pages. Seriously, tell all your friends, won't you?

Heh.

Actually, the possibility of a reverse April Fool's joke was a small bit of the dinner conversation between myself and Miss Jilli. To her credit, she also had you pegged, she's just not up yet to point that out.

Congrats! I'll be hunting you down on Sunday to collect my copy (do I need tax and exact change?). If it doesn't scare the pants* off me I get my money back, right? :-P





*this is a trick question, I don't own pants.

Heh. I even tried googling the publisher name, but didn't find the main site.

I am *so* pleased for you! I'll be buying a copy on Sunday at Norwescon.
