Rock 'n Roll Universe by Ken Rand.

Yard Dog Press Trading Cards--Yep, we went and did it.  These cards rock!  Full color pictures of your favorite YDP authors and artists.  They are going so well that we're seriously thinking about an expansion pack.  Get in on the action--there will be a trading card hour at Conestoga this month, so buy your cards now!

Still Coming from the Yard in 2009...     Bride of Tranquility by Tracy S. Morris, and Double Dog #5 with two great new novels, House of Doors by Julia S. Mandala & Jaguar Moon by Linda L. Donahue. We're taking pre-orders for this Double Dog now!!  Buy early; buy often!

bs02013_.jpg (8350 bytes)  Coming from the Yard in 2010... The Guardians, a previously-published novel by Lynn Abbey with a brand new novella about the same characters 30 years later // Apocalypse NOW!!, a Four Redheads novel that continues the hilarious misadventures of Bunny, Butterfly, Sarah Lee, and Zoe--the new "horsemen"; and, well, we can't tell you what else because the contracts aren't signed yet, but it will all be great!

Robin Wayne Bailey says, “Well, it didn't quite make it in time for Conestoga's "New Releases" reception, but … the new Dark Horse Books edition of SWORDS AGAINST THE SHADOWLAND. YAY! Go forth and buy! Support your local weirdo. I mean, writer.”

Kevin Hopkins says, “I now have web site up and running and in a tentative state of completion….  I would like to invite you to visit my site and … [w]hile you are there please sign the guest book and leave a comment for the fans if you have time. www.kevinhopkinsart.com

On a somber note, speculative fiction lost one of its best this past month. Ken was a member of the Yard Dog Press writers, a much-loved regular contributor to our line-up.  The message below is from his son:

"It is with great sadness that I write this message to let all of you know that my dad, Ken Rand, passed away April 21st, 2009. He loved his friends and wanted us to contact all of you and let you know of his passing. He will miss all of you!

"Thank you all!"

Mike Rand
