Friends,
As part of our continuing efforts to make the discussion forums at YW.Net self-sufficient, DD has sanctioned the first publication anywhere of material from A Wizard of Mars. This material will be available by subscription only: proceeds will go toward the operation and expansion of the Forums.
The first two chapters (because chapter 1 is short) are now available for viewing by those discussion forum members (you must be registered as a member here) who're willing to pay a three-month subscription fee of USD $15.00. The first offering represents nearly 20,000 words of material that no one will see until the book is published in the autumn of 2008. (This is a hard publication date, BTW: DD tells us that issues regarding this book with the publisher have been resolved.)
Further chapters will be released in mid-September and mid-October. At that point DD will determine with the publisher whether any further material should be released.
Interested readers should scroll down the main Forum page to access the subscription bar at the bottom. You can either choose the chapter-only option, at USD $15.00 for three months, or the chapter-and-archive option for USD $25.00 per 3 months -- this will also allow access to all messages in the Message Archive forums after they go subscription-only at the end of this month.
Once you've subscribed, access to the Premium Content area is by the "Premium Content" link in the menu bar at the top of the main Forum page.
(Incidentally, we will also be opening a spoiler forum for discussion of this early material.)
Have fun!
