Subject: Re: WAR: N/Npack?

KC asked:
> Who's generally in charge of the Nick/Natpack?
> Do all the Nick/Natpackers (Dark and Light) play as one faction?

Our faction leader, Soulseeker is usually our war mistress, ably backed by
her lieutenant, Susan Bennett, with many others plotting, writing and
lending themselves to action. The NNpack has not yet been called to arms,
but I'm sure we will be. The whole "family" plays as one, although special
interests might be reflected in what individuals plot or write.

The more the merrier! The Nick and Natpack is a yahoogroups list, so you
can just sign on as you would to any other yahoo group.
The faction webiste is "Mortal Love"   http://www.geocities.com/nnpacker001/

Hymon

***PLEASE CONTACE ME OFF LIST WITH REQUEST AND QUESTIONS AT:

debh@e.......

Hi, Everyone!

The book is ready for publishing.  I don't think you'll be disappointed.
I'm very pleased with the cover.  I received the latest sample, and approved
it for printing. Due to the increased amount of requests, the cost of the
book has been slightly reduced, therefore the original cost of the book will
include the packaging and shipping cost. I¹m not making a profit on this
book.

***Only 4 more days to place your order!

I want to quickly wrap up this project, and have established a deadline for
pre-orders. Once the books have arrived from the publisher, I will
individually contact people who have reserved a copy with the info where to
send payment.

***Please do not request a book unless you intend to pay.  I have to pay for
all books not sold.

Season of Change is an Adult, Christmas story about Nick and Natalie--¹Last
Knight¹ never occurred in my FK universe. This story is one of the many
possibilities that could have happened to Nick and Nat¹s relationship.

Season of Change‹212 pages

Format‹standard size paperback

Cover‹Color, slick, picture of Nick and Nat

Cost--$13.00 includes shipping cost

Payment‹Money Order only

Deadline for pre-orders‹Wednesday, August 4th‹5:00 p.m. (EST)--This
Wednesday!

Remember, this is probably a one time deal, and they will never be offered
on my web sites. This book is produced for the purpose of sharing the story,
and NOT FOR PROFIT! I¹m only ordering the books requested. The chances of
ordering a book at a later date are slim.  I can print another book, but the
cost will increase because of quantity of books. The more books printed, the
cheaper the cost.

If there¹s any questions, please feel free to email me.

Thanks,
Deborah

Subject: Siege Perilous sample chapters online

Sample chapters of the upcoming book "Siege Perious" by Nigel Bennett and P.N. 
Elrod are now available online at the publisher's website.
<http://www.baen.com/chapters/W200410/0743488547.htm?blurb>
The first 5 (of 15) chapters are online.  The publication date is October 2004, 
which probably actually means late September.  I've already pre-ordered 2 
copies from Amazon.

For those who don't know, "Siege Perilous" is the third novel co-authored by 
Nigel Bennett (Lacroix on FK) and P.N. Elrod.  The others are "Keeper of the 
King" (December 1996) and "His Father's Son" (April 2001).  If I remember 
correctly, the deal was only for 3 books.  :-(
