When Afterthoughts first launched as an original eBook, many of you let me know that you were far more interested in a printed book. And some of you bought the eBook only to write me that you wanted a printed copy as well for your library. I’m happy to report that Open Road has a Print-on-Demand paperback on the way, and it should be up and ready in a matter of weeks. The price is not set yet, but my best guess is that it will be somewhere between $9.99 and $14.99. As soon as I have more information, I’ll post it here.

But If you want this book in a truly outstanding edition, you can order it right now and receive it sometime in October. The legendary Otto Penzler of The Mysterious Bookshop has arranged to publish a deluxe hardcover edition of Afterthoughts, with a very limited press run. In an uncharacteristic burst of enthusiasm, I agreed to sign all the copies. The price is $35, and that’s a tad higher than the 99¢ eBook, but I’ve a feeling the edition’s going to sell out in a hurry. Best bet: order toll-free at (800) 352-2840. Or contact the bookshop via email— info@mysteriousbookshop.com…
