Well I for one totally forgot about that Wayfriend. Its not too late to make a change.

"The Watch: A Fantasy Anthology" was the apparent winner.

I deliberately titled the Anthology "Kevin's Watch Anthology 2006" because I am hopeful this will become a yearly event. Given the time it takes to get these things done I think we ought to begin thinking about KWA 2007 :-)

2007? :faint:

Here's the back cover:

Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion


I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion

We've finally found a publishing team with follow-through, but we lost our Committee. I thought I heard general rumblings of "I'll never do this again!" Avalest, you did an excellent job of choosing a committee last time. Do you want to choose another, or do you want me to sort through the offerings? I think it's better to have more than one person's taste doing the choosing.

Heh, I'm no writer, but would it be cool if I submitted a comic this time? It'd be nice to get my chops back up.

I think adding a graphic novel to the mix would be cool. Just my two bit opinion. :-)

You certainly did. Given how long and gruelling this has proven to be, I know there are a few people who wouldn't touch another anthology with a bargepole-sized Staff of Law.

Completely off topic, Joy, I've just realised why your posts tug at something in the corners of my brain. You "speak" exactly like my closest friend. I've only just spotted that.

I thought I would never do it again, but that was when we kept losing publishing people. With Tom and Jay working on it, I know we're fine.

No one I know, I hope, CJ. :mrgreen:

I hope so too. It would be quite surreal if you knew Liz.

Rather than putting a year, I think it'd be better to just put a Volume #, that way there's no time constraint.

Good point, dAN. However, most of this time has been spent waiting for missing persons to reappear, so it won't be the obstacle course this one has been.

Ahem! Just don't think editing can be done in the wisk of a lamb's tale.

Of course, I don't want anything to hold up this volume, so if it's a quick fix, fine; if not, fugettaboutit.

great idea about the volume number instead of the year, dAN...and...i volunteer to help in any way possible with the next one. if you guys decide to do it again!!! which i hope you do...since i'm not IN this one!! heh. :twisted:


and i like the blue cover, Tom
you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?
~ alan bates, the mothman prophecies



i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

Tom has wisely decided to ignore our whining and finish the bloody thing. I think Jay's supposed to put this up for sale, but Tom has it so you can look at it till Jay's official product is up....heck, it looks like you can even buy it! But, I think you should wait for Jay to get off his lazy arse and post the official one.
