i'm not sure where that original thread went where i discussed the next CoC "tome", but it's nearing completion.
99% of it has been written. now the organizing, editing, and fine-tuning begins. also, just received the b/w drawings i commissioned. they turned out great and will add a lot of Mythos flavor to my words.
the tome is not going to be very long, more in the style of Crowley's Book of the Law; however, there will be plenty of substance to squish one's tentacles around. the book is going to be put on the website first. i'll be asking around to see if any occult publishers want to do a mass market or perhaps a fancy leatherbound edition before trying to self-publish a hard copy of it myself using lulu.com
when will it be up on the site? i'm sure all the updates will be completed by Valentine's Day... usually takes the web designers a good week or so to make the changes.

VERY awsome news indeed VS.. I have been waiting for the moment I can finaly get my claws on it! Put me in line for it when the time comes! I got my brother to finally read Call of Cthulhu, maybe Cthulhu Cult will be next for him? He is into Zen Budhism, and the Fourth Way so who knows.

sounds like the perfect candidate.
that's the beauty of it, the knowledge will be revealed at no cost and no hoops to jump through. of course, that's where the free ride ends. actually putting the Cult's deeper lore into practice is the difficult part of the journey.

what to look forward to...
more explanation of the 4th way's integration into our Cult's paradigm.
a complete glossary/translation of CoC words will eventually be compiled, but there's a lot to start with in Liber A:O.
also, the God of all Gods' true name.

VS Nice! I can't wait for the artwork either.. I bought a couple of the artist's work before, and I am curious to see what it will be.

i have a bit of news...
Lulu is offering a special deal for authors who purchase 100 or more of their hardcover books. this is only good until the end of February. i'm getting a quote now and intend to get 100 hardcover copies of Liber A:O for those who want a physical copy (signed by me) and those who attend the upcoming CoC convention. with pictures and formatted to fit a 6" x 9" book, it comes to 75 pages.
i will probably allow lulu to host the PDF for those who prefer to read documents using that format. if i run out of hardcovers, then i can always order more and cheaper because authors get a better price. anyways, all that won't happen until the document is up on the website... which is only a day or two away!
however, here's a taste... this is Lulu's link to Liber A:O
www.lulu.com/content/5979673
the cover turned out extraordinarily well. if anyone has any questions, ideas, or suggestions, just let me know.

some of you may have run into trouble with the link in the above post because the new book was set to private. i just changed Liber A:O to general access on lulu.
do me a favor and please see if this link works and if you can download the free PDF from lulu's page:
www.lulu.com/content/5979673
and let me know the results here in this thread.

still? hmm, try it again in the morning for me. thanks.
yes. yes, it has. Liber A:O is now up on the website in the Cult section. also, the I Am the Way page(s) have been slightly altered to show the Cult's recent membership paradigm shift. oh and the convention page has been spruced up a bit.
i am grateful, and expect nothing less from the mighty fellowship that is our nightmare Cult!
