Hi, everybody --

I want to start by thanking everybody for all your support so far - thanks to you talking about the book, reviewing and recommending it, taking the time to talk to Alex and I, and linking to our various pages, we've managed to build a ton of buzz for the release of Awakening Volume One. Our debut copies sold out in the first two days of Wizard World Philly and we're looking for a repeat performance at SDCC in a few weeks, though hopefully we'll make it through more than two days! While there's been an unfortunate shipping delay, I can't stress enough that the book is printed (obviously since we sold out last weekend!) and is en route as I type this. It'll be in stores no later than July 29th, though hopefully sooner. We've waited a year for this so I hope you'll all hang on for just a few weeks more...

To keep the momentum strong and keep appetites whet, we've put together an exciting trailer for the book! The trailer is now available on YouTube, complete with embed code, here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qJQB68NkP0 - or, if you'd prefer to host the file yourself, it's available for download here - http://www.sendspace.com/file/htf6ew - And for those who dig the book, a quick stop at their LCS or bookstore to reserve a copy or a click online at Amazon.com - http://www.amazon.com/Awakening-One-Nick-Tapalansky/dp/1932386483/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1246336312&sr=8-1 - (still with a discount!) to pre-order is all that stands between them and their copy of the first volume of our existential horror and zombie noir tale.

Alex, Thomas, and I hope you'll post this up to let people know we're coming, and sooner rather than later. Your support has been invaluable and we can't stress enough how much we appreciate it. Just a few more weeks, guys - then the countdown to Volume Two begins...

You've been warned... :)

Best,
Nick
