I’m just sitting here at my local Toyota dealership having some scheduled maintenance done, so I figured this was a great time to get this update out. This tie around there are four more POD HCs, some cleanup, and a previously missed audiobook. Overall a semi-productive week. When it comes to clean-up, if you see something amiss, please don’t hesitate to drop me a line. From typos to miss-ordered editions, I can use all the help I can get.

If there’s no other proof as to me being a completist, it’s the fact that I spent money on an ebook “unmasking Dean Koontz´ [sic] prophecy.” Please spare yourself from this drivel.

Plenty of new items this week ranging from 1969 to 2022. And, in site news, Appendix G was getting too large for WordPress to handle properly, so I’ve split it into two: G(1), which covers 1969-1999, and G(2), which covers 2000-present. It’s not the most elegant solution, but it was the best one I could come up with.

• Afterword to The Key to Midnight POD Trade Paperback
• The Eyes of Darkness POD Trade Paperback
• Frankenstein screenplay lettered edition photo here and here
• The House at the End of the World mentioned in the April 2022 issue of Locus
• Gothic Blimp Works as in the February 14, 1969 issue of The East Village Other to Appendix G(1)
• The Key to Midnight POD Trade Paperback
• Changed The Servants of Twilight “bootlegs” to POD
• Changed The Voice of the Night “bootleg” to POD

This week’s biggest news is that I’m starting to dive back into fanzine content again. As I’ve explained before, this stuff is complicated due to many factors, mostly due to the cross-references between issues regarding letters, responses, and the responses to responses. This week I started focusing on SF Opinion, the fanzine that Dean published in the late 60s. For now, there are just placeholder pages. Over the coming weeks and months, I’ll be filling in the issues and adding the individual content entries. I’d love to get one done per week, but no promises. (If you’re a Vaughn Bodē fan, you’re gonna want to check these out.)

• Dean Koontz in conversation with Tess Gerritsen to Appendix B
• The House at the End of the World release date, temp Amazon cover, and initial audiobook information
• Meet Quinn Quicksilver Instagram video
• The proposed Nameless TV series now has an entry.
• SF Opinion placeholder pages to the Publisher category
• This or That to Appendix B

Last week was super weird when it came to my day job’s schedule, taking up much of the time I set aside to get some work done here. This coming week is weird too but in very different ways. Unfortunately, I don’t know if that’ll help or hinder my work here. So, no promises.

• Forever Dogs by Tricia Spencer to Appendix D
• Updated gutter code and DJ text variation information for the Leigh Nichols Shadowfires BCE.
