No spoilers here really. Just listen. "I knew it didn't matter what happened with Anna. Though I needed her more than ever to help me through. I was prepared for her to love me or leave me, to destroy me on the wheel of sex, to crush my heart to dust: I no longer felt I controlled it, or her, or even that I should. We can't live with our foot over the mine. We can't. For the first time since my youth I was unshackled. I had love, even though it scorched me. You let go. It's as simple and as complicated as Antonia had told me. You cry. You come. You sing. You laugh. You scream. You let go. No one needs to hang on to a first edition, Whoever wrote it; even if it was Moses. I looked back up at the sky, blinking at the lustrous beauty of the ascending and departing demons. They formed an alphabet I was beginning to learn to read. They were fire in the sky." That's writing, my friends. Best, D. 5 Sat February 06 2010 - 15:41:35 Fullname: ketchum Email: Comments: Hi, folks -- two books to recommend -- Mr. King's UNDER THE DOME and Graham Joyce's HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH DEMONS, now out from Night Shade Books. Very different from each other, but each pitch-perfect. DEMETRA -- thanks for posting on your animal rights page, keep up the good work. GAIL -- hope you've finished and enjoyed both ONLY CHILD and SMOKING POPPY by now. I was in Toronto last year for the Rue Morgue Festival and may be again this year. Keep an eye on my appearances page. JOANNE -- if you can wait, in June Leisure are publishing JOYRIDE backed with WEEK SPECIES, which seem right up your alley. Otherwise, if you'd like a dip into the supernatural, you might try SHE WAKES, my only novel to dip into that territory. BRANCK -- love to go to Denver but nobody's asked me to a Con there. Maybe one of these days. CHRIS -- Leisure are going to be releasing my e-books, starting next month with COVER and OLD FLAMES. Don't want to actually sell stuff via my website. That stance just isn't for me.

Kind of like what D'Niall Wilson is doing? http://macabreink.com/ 7 Fri January 29 2010 - 14:48:27 Fullname: Brande McDonald Email: brande_mcdonald@yahoo.com Comments: Come to Denver Colorado!!!! 8 Wed January 27 2010 - 15:36:12 Fullname: Joanne Email: jjv2@hotmail.com Comments: So I finally finished my 5th Ketchum book. ONLY CHILD. WOW...is all I can say. I had actually expected it to be a bit more graphic...but nonetheless, it still wrapped me up in its pages and had me completely hating Arthur! lol (that's what these books are supposed to do, right?!?) ;) I WOULD LOVE YOUR PERSONAL RECOMMENDATION on the next book I should read. I've already read: Off Season, Offspring, Right To Life, Girl Next Door and like I said above, most recently Only Child. Give me something raw, juicy, violent and gory! I know you must have done another book with these aspects!! Something that most people shy away from and just can't handle! I'M WAITING.......... :) respectfully, Joanne 9 Tue January 26 2010 - 19:43:31 Fullname: GAIL Email: Comments: So, its me again, i just recv'd only child through amazon , it came from britan, little bit of bad shape, bent spine, rough front, but hey, the story is intact im half way through the smoking poppy and as i recv'd this book yesterday, I just had to take a boo at it, you gripped me with the first paragraph (knew i shouldn't have done that ! ) and have not been able to put it down, ( well i did for a minuite while i type this ) im at work and hiding it under my desk ! lol i will go back to the poppy, but what can i say ? you are the best at what you do jack, you never ever disappoint me, i looked at your appearences, the closest i can get to you is at the rock and shock, but it is still aways from toronto, and i thinik i would have to take off work, not into driving in the states , hubby said you have to be kidding ? i was not . but anyay hopefully you will come to toront soon will keep checking all the best g 10 Mon January 25 2010 - 14:14:55 Fullname: GAIL Email: Comments: HELLO Mr Ketchum well i just saw the dvd ( i did not know there was a book ) of header ! how do you guys think of this stuff ? i enjoyed it, the ending was not what i expected,kinda had a twist, you and Mr Lee, looked very authentic with your uniforms on ! still reading the smoking poppy by graham , it is really good as well, thank you for your input on other authors, still waiting for only child to come form amazon, warm regards, G 11 Sun January 24 2010 - 20:09:13 Fullname: Demetra Email: Comments: Hi Jack and Steve- For the past year I have been involved with the HSUS and found that there are many dedicated people trying to change the problematic animal laws in this country. Proposition 2, California, was a big step. I started a twitter page "My Dog Voula" to start a discussion on animal law. Please post. I am activily pursuing justice and awareness. I will keep you posted on further events in the justice of the killing of my beautiful girl, Voula.

Your work was a huge inspiration for me. Well, I made it in! I've been shortlisted for the top 10. Voting starts this Friday, so now it's all over to the power of the people. First voting category is BEST OPENING CHAPTER. If you're free anytime Friday or afterwards feel free to swing by and read what's on offer. Maybe even throw some votes around? And that's an invitation to all, it should be fun! http://chizine.com Also, just read "The Crossings" : wow! More people need to read this one, it's fantastic. Cannot wait to meet "THE WOMAN". Take care and happy new year! Oh and what's the status on "The Passenger" adaptation? Any news? Take care! 18 Sun January 10 2010 - 15:47:39 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: Whoops, missed a few...LUCYGRACE -- glad you covered COVER and the other books. STEVE Y -- thanks for pointing me to the King list. OLD FLAMES made it on there last year, which was pretty cool. I'll check out JENNIFER'S BODY (wait, that doesn't sound right.) KONNIE -- you go to bars, you meet the occasional psycho lady. So yeah, there have been a few. Thankfully not many. GAIL -- glad I turned you on to Graham Joyce. You might also try INDIGO at some point.

I just opened Only Child and realized that I happened to purchase a limited edition copy with your signature. Copy #494. Is that an actual real signature??? If so.....very, very cool! Joanne 21 Thu January 07 2010 - 00:12:30 Fullname: Joanne Email: jjv2@hotmail.com Comments: HOLY SH*T!!! I ordered 5 of your books about 2 weeks ago: Off Season, OffSpring, Right To LIfe, The Girl Next Door and Only Child. I read the first 4 in less than 2 weeks! I'm completely hooked. Your writing is exquisite and I can't put your books down. I am simply amazed with your ability to write these books and captivate your readers. You have a life long fan in me. I just finished The Girl Next Door about 5 minutes ago and I have Only Child in my hot lil hands right now. Can't wait to dive in. I have a huge admiration for authors that can get me to read more than 1 of their books. Let alone 4 in under 14 days with the 5th ready to go. Will you be in Boston ever doing a book signing??? I'd love to meet you and have you sign my books. Can't wait to buy more of your books! Sincerely, Joanne (huge fan) 22 Tue January 05 2010 - 17:34:52 Fullname: William M. Miller Email: Arriflex1@aol.com Comments: Just to let everyone know the good news... THE GIRL NEXT DOOR is being released in high definition Blu-ray on February 2nd. This version was mastered at the full 1080 lines of resolution (over twice the dvd quality), so it should look great. 23 Tue January 05 2010 - 17:03:24 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: I'll be answering these messages soon, but a quick announcement. For those of you who've been asking about e-books, I checked with Leisure. They say that Cover and Old Flames are in the works and should be available in a little over a month. A bunch of the others (Offspring, Off Season, Girl Next Door, Peaceable Kingdom) are scheduled for June.
