Me neither
But, what's even more frustrating for me is that the last book won't be done until 2013???
I'm old and might not even be alive in 2013
Is there somewhere that I can get an AARP unfinished, maybe rough-drafts of the last 2 books?
J/K
But,
I don't know how many times I can re-read
the first two books while waiting for the rest,

from srd.com today (news section)
"Against All Things Ending" acceptance
Both my US and my UK editors have officially indicated that AATE meets with their approval. They are now surrendering the text to the machinery that produces books (starting with copyeditors), working with artists and art departments for cover designs, and planning for publication in October 2010 (specific dates yet to be determined). They are also adjusting to my announcement that I will NOT do an author tour for this book. Author tours take too much out of me, and I need my very best for "The Last Dark".
My webmaster and I (but mostly my webmaster) are working on a "trailer" for AATE. We should have one ready before too much longer. And when I receive permission from my editors to do so, I'll post the first chapter (as I've done with the previous two books). Other news as it develops.

I'm good with no author tour. They never let him come East anyhow....

Hmm, I think I still have a few books missing from my collection, and with no author tour I'll have to send for autographs instead...
Let's see, if you read 1 book a week, then you'll need to start in August for a re-read. Woohoo, only seven months away!

Anyone notice the change on the SRD site front page today? Has "coming soon" for the first chapter of AATE, and also the trailer at the lhs has changed (although it's not playing at the moment).
Get ready people!!!!

Ooo, is it too early to get the twitches? Really looking forward to the 1st chapter! Just noticed some interesting new GI questions too.

There is no interpretation of "Coming Soon" that could possibly be fast enough for it to get here "soon enough" for me.

Those GI's weren't there a couple hours ago!!! Maybe if I check the website in a couple more hours....

Excellent point! I hereby elect you as Speaker for Those Who Can Not Wait Any Longer And Will Therefore Hasten Armageddon As A Result, or TWCNWALAWTHAAAR... it's a bit unwieldy, but it gets the job done!

TWCNWALAWTHAAAR - another pronunciation to learn?
I'm just looking forward to reading something new from SRD - it's bloody exciting!

You twitch, Stevie. I'll shiver. Together we'll make an appalling spasmodic display.
Orlion, while I fully support rdhopeca's new role, I think it would be good to have a disclaimer warning of the hazards of pronouncing the new acronym, in case people injure themselves when they try to.
