That’s not what I was led to believe, I asked for my payment to be returned, confirmed my PayPal email for a cancelled Gwendy Final Task order from 2 years ago.
There was no mention of store credit.

I have always been given my money back. Not store credit. Regardless of how old the order was.
Maybe it's a new policy due to all the cancelations happening.
When people want their money back that's what causes the pyramid scheme to fail!
Apologies for the confusion but a lot of those pre-orders were bought with gift certificates. The ones I can get cash back for are the ones I have my fingers crossed over and haven't cancelled yet. I am bummed because I didn't want to cancel anything. I want the books.
IDK if anyone has heard about this but there's some controversy as due to internal changes a number of authors have had their contracts cancelled.

Just gets more bleak almost every day.
Maybe I'm the last to catch on, but this is the first thing I've seen that pushes things from "perpetually running late but still running" to "I hear a funny noise in the engine..."
Go Gwendy go, eh?
It really does look like Chizmar got to a certain point and said well these aren't going to get done, let me get my book published and advertised daily for years while everything else fell off the back burner. I was not around for the beginning of CD but I noticed it seemed to be the same way with similar complaints up until Mr. Freeman got hired and sorted everything out seemingly by himself. I know he wasn't by himself but the man is a workhorse and still the nicest guy I've dealt with from small press publishers. I hope CD can find another BJF or someone anywhere near as good as that man and soon. CD put out some very nice editions and maybe just maybe they can get back to those days again.
I know Kevin Lucia and it's a shame he's leaving too. He did get the paperbacks out.
Canceled The Stand and Pet Sematary orders. We'll see what happens.
Were some posts removed from here yesterday?
None Kris, I found them in another thread. Was just coming here to delete…
The conversation about 50 possible signed magazines that have just gone on sale.
The 50 King signed magazines are just a possibility. Not even in the preorder stage
What happened was that King said on twitter that Rich should send him 50 copies to sign :

Whenever the mags will be ready (still being in the works as Rich posted on twitter that people should contact him if they want to put ads in that issue, so it's not finalized yet, therefore not at the printer), :

As a reminder, the ordering page :

"Coming 2024."
Yeah right.
King should stop bailing Rich out with these little handouts and put pressure on him to get years old orders out first.
To me this makes SK complicit with Chizmar's Ponzi scheme. He has to know what is going on and after all of his railing over the years about limited editions and the completely unjustified and unprofessional attack on the Centipede 'Salem's Lot he offers to sign more CD product? Not a good move.
