Well, Christmas has come and gone... 72,000 words and I thought we might get a Christmas present from MWW but alas...no joy.

Maybe if enough of us beg, we might get a NYE's gift. So feel free to grovel.

Please Mr. Weber, I had the good fortune to meet you at a book signing in Torrance, CA a few years back for Safehold #2. The next time you're in the LA area, I will gladly take you to LA's Koreatown for some amazing Korean food for a short snippet today.

I will not beg, I will not grovel, I will not whine. I will simply ask MWW "Please may we have more of something new, please".

What your favorite writer doesn't even get a vacation day or two anymore? Man, what kind of addicts are you people? You each must be almost as bad of an addict as I am! :P

Also, I would suspect that if he's barely 1/4 of the way through the writing process, he may not have too many sections longer than a few sentences that he feels safe releasing as a snippet.

He said he had around 72000 words and the book was going to be anywhere between 240000 to 260000 so that means that he has roughly 30% of the book done, and this was some weeks ago.

By now I expect him to have already written at least 50% of it. So in other words i cant wait for LAMA.

Well it takes a while to ship a llama and get it through US customs and everything, so you may have to wait a bit...

"A Mighty Army"

Is that the title for the next book?
I hadn't seen that before.
