Ok, il n'y a pas grand chose en news (à part la surprise), mais on est pas obligé de meubler, non?

This years' Games Day UK anthology will have the prequel story to my Rise of the Warmaster/Black Legion series. Two minutes ago, I finally figured out the first line, so I can at last write the fucking thing.

Here’s me, hard at work here in the warp-space maelstrom known as Maidstone. I’m writing Pariah just now, the first book in The Bequin Trilogy, aka the third Inquisitor trilogy, aka Eisenhorn versus Ravenor. In other words (not that those weren’t quite enough already), the long, LONG awaited follow up to Eisenhorn. And yes, it’s got Eisenhorn in it.

I say ‘I’m writing’, but the truth is – much to Black Library’s delight, I’m sure – that will very soon be ‘I have written’. I’m in deadline crunch land, where matter and antimatter collide, and the editors check their watches and suck their teeth. The finish line is in sight. I am accelerating to attack speed, cats and dogs are living together, and I’ve seen ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.

Pariah’s going to be a pretty big deal for me this year, and for the readers too, I hope. And that’s in a year when I’ve already had the pretty big deal of Know No Fear. There will be no halting after Pariah’s done, no pausing for breath. I’ve got A Big Secret Thing to write after that, plus Another Big Secret Thing, plus a new Horus Heresy novel (The Unremembered Empire). It’s a testament to how Big and, indeed, Secret the Big Secret Things are that, by comparison, I’m able to mention the Horus Heresy book out loud. Trust me, the Big Secret Things are Big Secret Black Library Things, and you will squeeee when you hear about them.

That’s the cool part of Black Library’s rolling program. And the curse. I want to tell you, I really do, I want to share the excitement and all the squeeee’s of my own. But it doesn’t work that way. A book can take many months to advance from initial concept through commission to publication. They’re big, heavy, work-intensive and hard to turn, like supertankers, or brontosaurs, or those big, heavy similes you sometimes get. Basically, they take a while to prepare. We have to bide our time. If we tell you about each Big Secret Thing the moment it starts, you’d just be entirely exhausted and over-emotional by the time it finally came out. Constant squeeeeing for months on end can really drain you.

So just take my word for it, Black Library has got some AWESOME stuff planned for you over the next year or so. We’re all working on it as hard as we can. Bite down on something. Brace yourselves. PACE yourselves. Just hearing the announcements will place your socks on the far side of the room without you having to unlace your trainers first. And your underpants will, I can assure you, end up in the garden.

Cool stuff is coming. I was in the meeting. I saw the agenda. The cool stuff... it’s SO cool!

And that’s before we’ve even got onto the AMAZING Secret Stuff I know that Games Workshop as a whole is going to–
