Dragon Egg on Face!
Many apologies, but still a Dragon delay. It must be the cold snap in London. Very exciting things coming next week though.

A Charming Letter, On Facebook
Dear Mr Clement-Davies,
I just wanted to send you an email to say thank you! I 1st read Fire Bringer 10 or 11 years ago, at the time I must admit, being 14 I wasn’t a huge reader. I first picked up the book as we had one English lesson per week so we had half an hour reading. I can’t remember the exact reason why I picked up the book, but once I did I couldn’t put it down until it was finished. Since that point, I have regularly been immersed in one book or another.
I recently found a copy of Fire Bringer in a 2nd hand shop and was delighted to have the chance to read it again, and once more I didn’t put it down until it was done!! It really is a fantastic book that has had the same effect on me as an adult as it did as a child.
Many thanks for your time in reading this.
Many kind regards,
AW

Thank you! Thank you!! Thank you! I have just read with delight your announcement to publish “Scream of the White Bear” next year. Let us know when we can order advance copies. – Barb
Dear B,
you too, but if I knew precisely what I was doing I would let you know! I am so angry about the last two years I am tempted to give it to fans free, but in the ironies of the human animal, people might think it was worth less. Apart from the fact that I would have to start begging down The Old Kent Road, and Polar Bears still wouldn’t have a chance against Russian oil giants, or conventional New York publishers! DCD

PHOENIX ARK PRESS RELEASE
If you’ve ever seen a publisher, and its authors, try hard, and succeed or fail, right in front of your nose, this is where the story’s at! Apologies for delays, but we are trying to do a lot of things at the same time, and trying not to crash and burn.
The publication of Scream of the White Bear will now be brought forward, after a previous delay this year, to Spring of 2011. Not ideal for that vital Christmas Market, next year, but David Clement-Davies is not having disappointed fans waiting any longer. The situation at Abrams caused enough grief, as it is, and it is time a book came out.

MOVIES AND YOU!
THIS HAS BEEN REMOVED AS A PAGE AND BLOGGED INSTEAD
From the founder: When I start to look again, and remember a story is no longer mine, but yours, it fills me with courage, yet anger at what’s happened. It’s fantastic what people have done out there with my books, and we are all in the talent business together. Several producers have shown interest in Fire Bringer, The Sight and Fell, published by Macmillan, Firebird and Abrams, though nothing has happened officially, and I hope to make a stir for my stories, and Phoenix authors. One piece of work that roused me to pick up a pen though, rather than a sword, is this on Utube and to cloudsgirl, bravo for your fanwork, it’s lovely! There are many out there that really inspire, like Rebelstardawn, make me proud of you, and of myself again. If people and companies are blind and deaf, let’s do it together, use Fell and Larka’s voices and the call of the wild to set up a real song, but have a look at this and others
