Interest Spates Catalog by Magnoli Props

We're getting very close to the end (currently at 317 pages, which doesn't include the Table of Contents nor the Index), so here is a reminder to those who wanted to contribute the following articles:

Bachelors Grove Cemetery jubjub86
Casket Girls bondoking
Curse of the Pharoah (Howard Carter) DracoAdamantus
Dream Demons TheEC1
Overlook Hotel mikesprops
Ed Parson toymaker
Philadelphia Experiment DracoAdamantus
Spontaneous Human Combustion OldSandwich
Standing Stones DracoAdamantus
Stargate DracoAdamantus
I hadn't been planning to take on Standing Stones, I thought I left that suggestion open for others if they wanted to take it on. I've just been working on Curse of the Pharaoh, Philadelphia Experiment, and Stargate. Once I finish those three I could probably do it if no one else has stepped, up, just didn't want to take too much at once.
 
Hi Indy, i got a new Idea for the book, the event of Wallace and gromit : the cursed of the were-rabbit, i think it took place in 1966, but i don't know if it could work, can you tell me what you think about it ?

This is for real happening? I was reading Tobin's just a few days ago and googling this exact book. I don't know why this didn't come up then. Is there an official page to go to and put my name down for one or is it just an "order when it's ready" kind of thing? Because I will 100% buy one.
 
Yes, this is totally happening! We're now up to 339 pages... with a few more articles still to come, plus the table of contents and index... this should easily break 350 pages. We will post here when this is ready to order... most likely it won't be ready until September.
 
Hi Indy, i don't know if we can still gave article idea, because i thought about Evelyne lewis,the spider witch from ghostbusters the video game.

Table of Contents is finished (added a couple more articles in the process), Glossary pretty much done, and working on the BIG job of creating an index. The files are off to the editors now, so things are well into motion!

BIG UPDATE: We will be adding an optional brass bookmark complete with Spates' logo:

We'll confirm pricing over the next few weeks, but we should have a special pre-order price for those who get in early. Stay tuned!
 
Let's see:
  • We've picked out the leather for the cover.
  • May have found the paper we like.
  • Working on some new distressing methods.
  • Editors are still working on the text.
  • I'm working on compiling an index (FREAKIN' HUGE JOB!)
  • Optional bookmark is in the works.
  • Cover design has been updated.
No news on timing yet though... finalizing the text is the big job at the moment. I'll let you know when the text is done and off to the printers... that'll give us a good indication as to when the final run will be ready.
 
Thanks for the update! Do you think you’ll open up preorders this month or at what point in the process do you think is the right time to start taking preorders?
