So far I'm not seeing any interest beyond yourself.
Is there a great, silent majority? Or nobody wants a copy of "Heirs of
Babylon"?

I guess I missed the purpose of the bio - where is it going and who will be
using it and we're supposed to say how GC's writing affected our lives? Hmmm?
Guess I was too busy finishing "Soldiers Live" to pay attention. :)

I'll cast my vote for private submissions. I wouldn't mind contributing how
I found books 2 and 3 of the north at worldcon one year...and got them
signed by Glen cook himself.

Glen Cook is the Guest of Honor (GoH) at the science fiction & fantasy
convention Albacon 2000, <http://www.albacon.org>, to be held October 6-8,
2000 in Schenectady, NY.
Albacon asked me to write a short biography of about 1000 words for their
program book. I declined the invitation but obtained permission for this
list to write one.
Albacon gave this feedback:
> A group bio would be great. Try to have it more than just the basic
> biographical items. Personal anecdotes or things like "How Glen Cook changed
> my life" ;) would be what I'm looking for.
Examples of program book biographies can be found at
<http://www.mnstf.org/minicon/history/minicon30/glen-cook.html> and
<http://www.xmission.com/~shpshftr/GC/GC-Biog.html>.
Albacon needs the biography by September 22, 2000. I'd like to get one to
them by September 14, 2000.
Here is an opportunity for an individual to be published, achieve fame, and
win the book, "Heirs of Babylon" (Anybody else want to donate a prize?) or
for us to write this biography as a group.
So far I haven't seen much interest. Perhaps everyone is at WorldCon.

Well, count me among the interested. I'd prefer individual bios, perhaps a
limited word count?

Subject: (glencook-fans) Shadowline 3rd Edition
I'm trying to determine if there was a 3rd edition of Shadowline.
Does anyone have a book different from:
Shadowline (Red Cover)
ISBN: 0-446-30154-X $2.75
"First Printing: February, 1982"
"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1"
Shadowline (Black Cover)
ISBN: 0-446-34214-9 $3.95
"First Printing: February, 1982"
"Reissued: April, 1986"
"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3"
It's been suggested that the printing is indicated by the
"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1"
So I'm wondering if someone as a
"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2"
Same challenge for Starfishers. I've only found
Starfishers
ISBN: 0-446-30155-8 $2.95
"First Printing: May, 1982"
"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1"
Email me privately.
Thanks,
