There have been some interesting developments in the book project, and I'm really excited to share them with everyone! First, the book officially now has a name. As you may have guessed, I've titled it - Other Voices - A Cure Fan Tribute, which is a much more evocative name than
"30th Anniversary Book". The name was suggested by Sara / Shapes in a brainstorming session, and evokes all of the "voices" represented by all of the different pages and letters in the book.

Second, over the course of the project I have gotten some of the most amazing artwork and heartfelt, beautiful letters from everyone. I thought that there should be some way of preserving these gifts to the Cure, beyond a simple online slideshow. So I decided to create a real, hardcopy version of the book so that any of the contributors or other fans could have one for themselves. The book will be available in a large format, similar to the actual book, and also in a smaller and less expensive version in order to make it available and affordable to everyone.

You can preview the hardcopy book versions here:

Large format 11" x 13" http://www.blurb.com/books/631815 (Don't order these, preview only)
Med. format 8" x 10" http://www.blurb.com/books/631834

I want to assure you right now that I am not making any sort of profit from this book at all. The prices shown on the book pages are the base prices that Blurb charges for the actual production of the book, and have not been "marked up" in any way. The contributors to the book have been asked to sign a publication release, and so the final book may or may not contain all of the pages seen in the online album, based on the individual contributors' wishes.

Once the book has been completed with all of the pages and has been given to the Cure, I will send out an announcement stating that the book is ready to order. Again, I do not do any of the printing, shipping or order fulfillment for these books, they are from the Blurb print-on-demand service and the company there will handle all of the transactions.

Thanks again to all of the awesome Cure fans that have sent in their pages. You have all made this project a joy to work on, and I am sure that the band will appreciate all of your letters.

No I don't, it is all weird, they should also sing happy B-day before the encore, no word about it neither off the book? We have to wait to know it I suppose  :roll:
