Hi, it's your friendly Animorphs mod. I know there is currently a bit of an exodus over to Dreamwidth/other journals happening. This community will remain here (and I will continue to maintain it), but I wanted to let everyone know that I will be archiving everything from here over on DW at animorphslj.dreamwidth.org, just in case. I've already ( Read more... )

FYI, if you have Netflix, seasons 1 and 2 of the Animorphs TV show are now available via Netflix streaming. There are a few complaints that small portions are cut, so keep that in mind, but if that's an ongoing issue I imagine it will be fixed soon enough.

And now I know what I'll be up to this Independence Day weekend...

Sorry I didn't get this notice up here earlier (life has been hectic), but for those in the DC area or who are willing to make a day-trip, Katherine Applegate will be speaking and signing books at this year's National Book Festival on the National Mall on Saturday, September 21 (her husband came to this event last year)! Here are the deets:

From Hirac Delest:

"In other news: An amusing article has popped up on The Buzz where a new Mississippi bill has been introduced that forbids human-animal hybrids, such as the Animorphs. The HB 819 is The Protection of the Human Person Act, and would have slapped the Animorphs with a fine should they have ever gone public in our time."

But apparently, these were bought just before the announcement of the re-release, and are due to expire on June 19th, 2013 - which means ( Read more... )

Looks like the cancellation is now official. There had also been earlier an Hirac Delest post about an email from one of the editors that had also made the cancellation sound pretty certain, but now it's definite. ):

So I just noticed that Michael Grant is going to be at the National Book Festival in Washington, DC on September 23! His presentation is 1:50 pm - 2:35 pm, and his signing is unfortunately right afterwards at 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm (usually you have to line up a bit in advance to get a good place in line/even get a signature before time is up)...any ( Read more... )

Guys, this is a short, quick post with some sad rumours: according to Hirac Delest, there's a chance the re-launch will be cancelled :(

We need to start sending messages (on twitter and fcebook at least) to Scholastic to show them there are a lot of fans interested in the re-release!

I created this facebook page. If anyone has more ideas, please ( Read more... )

Thought I'd let everyone know that I got a chance to do a Q&A with the relaunch Rachel cover model. You can read it here: http://www.hiracdelest.com/blog/?p=3869

Hirac Delest's just confirmed that books 7 & 8 are going to be rereleased, guys!

THIS MEANS WE GET AX!

(Alas, no news of any changes on the Marco model yet though...actually, also no news of Megamorphs 1 as well. Wasn't that one originally published inbetween 7 and 8?)
