                       Yay! Glad you enjoyed.
  Best of luck -- though even if you don't win, you can buy a personalized/signed copy from me when the book goes on sale (so that I can buy copies myself at one of the bookstores in the area).

  If I win , I would love to do an honest reveiw of it on Amazon.com , but as the spot directly to the right of Ghostwalker is lacking a certain something, I  will still Buy a signed copy for my bookshelf!!!

  Are you saying you *wouldn't* do an honest review if you didn't win?
  i.e. "This author seems to have an odd fascination with goats," or "Twilight's really a man! EWW!" or something of the sort?

From that perspective, the sea of troubles we navigate in the workaday world might be the price we pay for admission to another night in the world of dreams." --Richard Greene (letter to Time) |

  For true? The dastard, to imply that Twilight would actually take part in something as vile as (almost) honest work -- at least, in so far as she was paid for doing something.

  Ahh....It makes me feel good to be labeled a Dastard by one who would know of such things!!! Not to mention hiding an Easter egg for someone who is quite fond of leaving them himself!

   It is a phrase used by our British friends when on the hunt. The first hunter to catch sight of the Fox shouts out Tally Ho!!!
  Since your contest gives us hope of catching a glimpse of the ellusive Twilight sooner rather that later I found it Apropos.

   Ohhh... I dont think I would be nearly that overt  I prefer to turn the tables and let your imagination fill in the spaces in between......Bwa Ha Ha
  And your imagination seems fertile indeed.....unless you truely find goats facinating......I myself would prefer to be facinated by Rinonalyrna instead, but to each his own.  And as to your second example of Twlights being a man....I can see it now ......after Bars kisses Twilight, Derst says "That's not an Elfmaid....Thats a Man Baby!"   But alas, for all my bluffing I am still honest! But even with that in mind, desperate times call for desparate measures!

  Ah yes. Now I see!  
  Twilight is a rather elusive fox, despite the number of powerful people who may or may not be hunting her.

  Well. Even *if* you don't win the free copy, I will still gladly pick up copies from bookstores to personalize, sign, and post out to my readers . . . for the standard cover price plus shipping. So a copy will cost a couple extra bucks (as though ordering from Amazon), but it'll be all nice and signed.   
  After the contest (and after the book shows up on the shelves), we can work out arrangements, if you like.

                       Erik, you may be interested to know that I've turned several EV fans onto your upcoming Depths of Madness novel. After recent discussions popped up, on another forum that I frequent, about worthwhile fantasy books to read (and taking note of the fact that many of those posting were also EV fans), I directed them to your blog and to your discussions here about Depths. Needless to say, you've now got a whole bunch of new fans intrigued by the character of Twilight... Of course, some were already familiar with her from "The Greatest Treasure", and so, were only keen to learn more.
  And, in a related side-note, the Lady K and I will be attending a concert on Thursday that just happens to feature a particular individual who formed part of your inspiration for the character of Twilight.

From that perspective, the sea of troubles we navigate in the workaday world might be the price we pay for admission to another night in the world of dreams." --Richard Greene (letter to Time) |

  How awesome! My "music ramblings" can have an unexpected effect, it seems. How radiant.

  Ha! Makes it sound like I'm charging for signatures.
  But no, it wouldn't cost you any more than ordering from Amazon, say.
  I'm also going to work out some system to have people send me books for me to sign, as well.

  I just read the sample chapter for Depths!!!(http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/frnovel/959727400)
 
  Erik....you are a hell of a tease. I loved it. 
  Two lines stand out:
  1) Now they were four: a sword, an axe, a caster, and a liar.
     Hmmmm......I wonder who the liar is!! What a well turned phrase!!
  2) They heard a devil’s bemused chuckle.
    ooohhhhhhhhhhh.......I got chills down my Spine!!!
    Nice job of letting us use our imaginations here to add that darkness we like so well in your work.
 
  P.S.   I cannot wait for This Book!
 
  P.S.S. I told my wife if I win a copy in your contest, I am going to seranade her with a rousing rendition of " I've got a Golden Ticket!"
 
 
    I would assume the "Liar" would be a most devoted follower of Erevan Ilesere by the frivolous name of Fox-at-Twilight.  At least I beg and hope Erevan it's so.  Could I be right?

                       Erik, do you think that "That Time Of The Tenday" will be available before Depths arrives?

  No idea -- it's up to the Wizards webfolk.
  As I recall, "Wayfarer" didn't appear until a couple weeks after Ghostwalker, so it's entirely possible "TToTT" (neat how that works out) won't show up until after some folks have already read {i}Depths[/i]. 
  It technically occurs before, but as it's a companion piece (or, at least, that's the intention) you can read it at any point and understand it on different levels depending on how far you are in the book (or even if you haven't started the book).
  I'm kinda hoping for next week, but we'll see.

  I figure it will take a day or so before it shows up on my account -- I'll let you know when it clears and whatnot.

  You are very welcome, and very much deserving.
  My thanks goes out to all the scribes here at the Keep, without whom my writing would not be what it is today.

                        "Instead of asking why we sleep, it might make sense to ask why we wake.  Perchance we live to dream.  From that perspective, the sea of troubles we navigate in the workaday world might be the price we pay for admission to another night in the world of dreams." --Richard Greene (letter to Time) |

                       There is an *Interview* about Depths up on the Wizards site. It gives a little insight into the various characters and whatnot -- check it out!

                       Right, now... after a slight delay [caused by the fact that my Lady read through it first!], I've finally started Depths. Erik, I'll chime in on the Book Club discussions soon enough.
