I, too, will have an essay in that book, BTW, and it's naturally coming out 'round the same time as the release of the BDM and the BDNOTBDM (Big Damn Novelization of the Big Damn Movie ).

Glad to hear you will have an essay in the book as well Keith. Can you shed some light on the essay?

Now that the movie has been pushed back to September, will this effect the release of the novelization and this book of essays?

The novelization will be pushed back along with the movie, so it too will be out in September.

As for the book of essays, I honestly don't know.

Many thanks for the prompt response, krad, especially since Front Office often treat their Creatives as much as an afterthought as they do their movie's Fanbase

Well, put it this way, I found out the same way you all did -- as did my publisher. *grin*

(Of course, this would be announced Thanksgiving week -- both Pocket Books's contact at Universal and my editor for the book are on vacation this week.....)

Hello folks. I have an essay in Benbella's new book, Revisiting Narnia. I was too late to the world of Firefly (just got the DVD set and am loving it) to be asked to contribute to Finding Serenity, but I enjoy Benbella's "Smart Pop" series of booksand I've ordered Finding Serenity and look forward to reading the essays.

Well, since we're dredging this thread back up anyhow, I've got one out in a new Smart Pop book as well: King Kong is Back! has my piece entitled "'Twas Stupidity Killed the Beast."

And I've got three more coming in 2006: "Actor and Superactor" in The Boy from Krypton, "Pryde and Joy" in The Unauthorized X-Men (both in the spring), and "The Madness of King George" in Star Wars on Trial (in the summer).

Gaah!!! They really need to put thread dates with the title. I thought there was an essay book on the movie Serenity coming out...

Sorry, my mistake as a newbie to the site. I discovered this site through a link to this discussion, and assumed it was a current one. I should have checked the dates.
