Well, you've read the notes, the notes were Ionesco-like, and now it is time for you to post until the surreal cows come home.

Congrats on it actually being released, Larry!!

I found it! The original (but unapproved) cover art for Believe that I had rescanned more than 20 years ago!:

It's all quite delightful! I can't wait to read it...but I must! I need to finish BK's book first!

I slept rather well, which I was unsure of since my legs by 5:00 yesterday afternoon were shot to hell. After I got the cats' dinners, I called my doctor and cancelled today's appointment. I was in no shape - or mood - to push a walker around Fifth Avenuied and 98th Street in agonizing pain. After I reschedule the appointment this morning, I plan on taking it very easy.

Yes, indeed, you do! What are you doing up so late?

I was asleep for a while, and then I woke up.

Now, I need to get back to sleep.

Have a good day, all!

Good morning, friends.

And others.

Larry, couldn't be more proud. Congratulations!!

I ordered my copy of Annabelle and Thatch this morning.

Elmore, you should post a link to the Amazon page on the Forgotten Musicals page.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 04, 2025, 05:06:07 AM »

This is so true!

Also on castrecl, or maybe someone else will post it on castrecl congratulating you on the book's release.

Is the publisher a castrecl list member, maybe?

Freddie · « **Reply #22 on:** August 04, 2025, 05:18:29 AM »

It might even get some back and forth going on castrecl, since you're such a regular and beloved poster on castrecl, so I'd bet once it's posted about, people will chime in to wish you well.

Freddie · « **Reply #23 on:** August 04, 2025, 05:21:28 AM »

(Since BK's book is also so on-topic for castrecl, that could be useful there, too - once the consolidation of the amazon pages shows up.)

Freddie · « **Reply #24 on:** August 04, 2025, 05:22:59 AM »

though I guess BK is more of a regular poster on Facebook these days than castrecl.

Freddie · « **Reply #25 on:** August 04, 2025, 05:25:09 AM »

Larry, do you know Darrel Karl or Kerr Lockhart? They seem to be people in castrecl who are known for spreading word in new releases.

Freddie · « **Reply #26 on:** August 04, 2025, 05:40:17 AM »

It really feels like there's a potential animated musical in ANNABELLE AND THATCH, from skimming it so far. Or even a stage musical: Forget the new CATS revival! This is what cats are really thinking, LOL.

Freddie · « **Reply #27 on:** August 04, 2025, 05:45:13 AM »

BK, regarding what you asked yesterday, I'm terrible - especially as I've gotten to silver citizen age territory - about sitting down and reading an entire book. I'd bet Skip will read the whole book, once we get it in paper form!

Thanks, DR John G! I ordered one for myself. I haven't seen anything since the galleys, and I want to see how the blurbs, which were not yet written when the galleys were printed, and redone illustrations came out.

Monday morning greetings! The only thing on my calendar this week is my Friday cardiologist appointment. Isn’t life exciting?
