127. That's less than half a year... I think. *looks tentatively at calculator*
Nah, too lazy to find out.

Of course it's less than half a year...
A year is 365, 127 is definitely less than half...
Anyway
ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SEVEN DAYS LEFT!

There are now 125 days left. This wait will be over before we know it.
Do you think they'll release some important bit of information when we get down to 100 days(sometime in July)?

Knowing our luck, that'll be when TheNamelessNovel.com opens...

Knowing our luck, that'll be when TheNamelessNovel.com opens... That's what I was thinking. Or maybe we'll get some sort of informative teaser paragraph from B&N, like we got for TGG at about this time last year. |

But B&N.com already has a teaser paragraph:
They practically give away the whole plot! [/sarcasm]

I was thinking we'd get one like they did for TGG, that listed various events/aspects of the book. Curiously, I remember the TGG one mentioning "hypochondria" which was strange because TGG contains no such incidents.

It was probably a really early draft of the book. I'm willing to wager that in the original book, Sunny's Mycelium infection turned out to be hypochondria, but then Handler wrote it out because it's not very dramatic, and he might as well have her be actually poisoned.
Still, early draft or no, it was a pretty good clue to what happened in the book, even if the infection turned out not to be hypochondria. In the same way, I'd be perfectly willing to accept a brief teaser from even an early draft, even if it later proved inaccurate, because it would still be connected to the plot. Although I think I read somewhere that Handler's already finished the twelfth book, so the teasers would be accurate.

Around this time, I'm sure we already had the letter at the back of the book and the publisher's summary of tgg. Not to mention THE TITLE.
125 days... and counting.

Hmm, I'm thinking instead of Widdershins being all loud and AYE-ish, he'd be a hypochondriac, or something. Or I dunno. |
