If you’re on SRB’s mailing list, you know that she’s looking for a title for the second book in the trilogy - and that there’s an advance reader’s copy in it for the person who suggests the best name. In the process of racking one’s brain for a suggestion, you may also find - as I have - that your head is filled with nothing but crack, and that ( Read more... )

Wow, the German book-cover is awesome. I like it even better than the American one. In the release info of the German audio CD of "Der Zirkel des Dämons" it says: In the www Sara Rees Brennan is known and loved as an author of "fanfiction". Not that many German readers will know what "fanfiction" is, but it's great that they mention it :-).

Oh, I think lots of people round here know fanfiction - at least lots of poeple round me :) There's also http://www.fanfiktion.de, which is quite popular.
I'm not saying anything about the quality of German fanfic... I've given up on it a long time ago XD

Oh, of course, people who are on the nets and who are fans know fanfiction. I am talking about people in the publishing industry. Whenever I start talking about fanfic, I get blank stares. Did you see there was an article in the taz about fanfiction yesterday?

I refrain as well from commenting on the quality of German fanfic ;-).

There is quality fanfic in German. You just have to look very close. *g*

Why did I not know about this yahoo group?? I had no idea I was missing discussion and stuff! She must have mentioned it in a previous post and I didn't even realize! I fail at fangirling! *joins*

Argh. I knew I should've done a post here about it. Am remiss. Sowwy!

Anywho, they get the cookies earlier than we do, so it's worth it.

I think Demon's Hunt sounds nice. :D

My suggestions agsilver January 14 2009, 13:16:26 UTC

It's a bit hard to say when you don't know much about what the book will be. Maybe the perfect name would be "The Potent Tome", but we don't know because we didn't realise it was in there. Well, we do know something about the book from Ms RB's description- based on this it should be called "The Lexicon of Pouncing ( ... )

What happened? agsilver February 19 2009, 10:56:48 UTC

Hey, what happened with this contest? Did anyone win?

Re: What happened? orexisbella February 19 2009, 11:32:12 UTC

It wasn't really a contest as such, she just said that if she used a title someone else had suggested she'd send them an ARC. :) I don't think she's chosen a title for the second book yet, so I guess no one's really "won" it so far!
