I haven't yet, but Lulu dispatched the order a few days ago, so it should be arriving any day now.

Mine arrived this weekend. :banana:

It's shiny. :mrgreen:

I've only read bits here and there -- will delve more deeply once I'm on vacation next week. Tho I have to say that I enjoyed Avatar's poem so much that I immediately passed around the book to my daughters.

Thanks very much for posting some pics. Nice to know the cover turned out so well. Hopefully the interior format worked out as well. I lifted the backgroud color directly from the painting. I was tempted to add text and a border similar to the original paperback version of The Power That Preserves. I'm very glad I didn't go through with it. :-)

TRC ordered the pair today, both Anthologies. He says he wants the A1 before I do the proofread, because it will be worth more for the 25th Anniversary.

I leant one of my copies to a coworker and she is enjoying the stories (so far she has read the first two).

That means she liked mine, too! Yay! :lol:

I finished reading the Anthology over the weekend and I enjoyed everybody's efforts very much. We have some really talented people here! Good job, everyone! (I'd do reviews of individual stories, but I left the book at home.... :oops: )
