Cool Jim’s Australian tour!

Quoted from jim-butcher.com
Quote:
Dec 01, 2013 - Jim’s Australian tour!

In his first trip outside North and Central America, Jim is heading all the way to Australia! He’ll be hitting three cons over the month of April:

Supanova: Gold Coast
April 4th-6th, 2014
Gold Coast Convention & Exhibition Centre
2684-2690 Gold Coast Hwy
Broadbeach QLD 4218, Australia

Supanova: Melbourne
April 11th-13th, 2014
Royal Melbourne Showgrounds
Epsom Rd
Ascot Vale VIC 3032, Australia

SwanCon
April 17th-21st, 2014
Ibis Styles Hotel Perth
15 Robinson Ave
Northbridge WA 6003, Australia

EDIT: Please note corrected dates for Melbourne and Gold Coast! They were originally published as flipped and have since been corrected.

Hachette Australia will also be touring Jim in between convention dates. We’ll make another announcement soon as the dates and venues are established.

Cool Skin Game...

Quoted from dresdenfiles
Quote:
priscellie 1 month ago

Yup! I can confirm that both of those accounts are Jim.

To answer the big question, Jim still hasn't finished the book, so any release dates given by Amazon or other retailers should be treated as speculation. I think that January 16th is a very reasonable estimate, but until you hear it from Jim, me, his editor Anne Sowards, or his agent Jenn Jackson, I wouldn't give it any weight.

High_Stream 1 month ago

How long does it take between Jim finishing the book and it appearing in the bookstore?

priscellie 1 month ago

Ghost Story was 3 1/2 months, and Cold Days was 4.

So, uh, I guess when I said before that January 16th was a reasonable estimate, I appear to have had the brainworms. This is why I avoid speculation. XD
I've not seen this time period verified till now (priscellie is Priscilla Spenser and she is responsible for the content of the jim-butcher.com web site). I still haven't seen the date he actually submitted the completed Skin Game manuscript to the publisher in print anywhere.

Oh, I forgot to mention where I got the 4 months from... I got it from Priscilla, so had you asked for conformation of that period I could have saved you the effort.

That's quite all right, I enjoy the effort, the search if you will. But it is a good practice to name your sources when possible.

Exactly! If people remember link to the source, then there's usually little need for argument (provided it is a trusted source, of course)!

Grrr. This is annoying and teasing... Anne Sowards is the editor of Jim btw. A date is still not planned though and she states that Christmas is 'unlikely'.

Yep, and "BOMBSHELLS" is a great story and it explains the Molly, Svartalve connection that shows up in Cold Days.
