Just when Sunday couldn't get any gloomier. Boring Site news: a double dose of Castor oil for yers! Vault on WordPress (laughably aka the Vault 'site') 1. The Burley Observer. As any 'news' items were fast swamped under a tidal wave of anthology posts with the inevitable result that nobody got to suffer them, I figured it would be best to give them a stand-alone section, hence The Burley Observer. Events, new & forthcoming publications, works in progress, etc. Little, if anything, that's not already appeared on here, but the 'site' seems to attract a slightly different audience to the board and perhaps it will become a useful promo tool. If you've not already spontaneously combusted with excitement, those of you who'd like details of your own current & forthcoming books, magazines, WIP's and what have you to be included, PM me and we'll see what we can come up with. This service, I should point out with as much tact as I am capable, is primarily, but not exclusively for regular contributors to the Vault of Evil forum and the friends and supporters of same. Leaving a solitary post or two on here or WordPress of the dreaded "Great site! I am the webmaster of blah, blah, blah and my great book/ site/ limerick will be the ultimate work on blah blah f**king blah " variety is hardly in keeping with the spirit of whatever it is Vault is about, so I thank you in advance for reserving such for your MySp*ce and Face-Ache hourly bulletins. 2. New English Library Hopefully of more interest: I've been working on the NEL section of the site on-off for a few months now, trying to select the best reviews by a variety of desperadoes from both this and the dead suddenlaunch board. It's nowhere near ready to go 'live' yet and with Justin's NEL horror overview set to continue in the next Paperback Fanatic, I'll continue to keep it private until .... well, Halloween is always good for a launch and that leaves plenty of time to f**k it up!

Shouldn't we have had Bride of Boring Site News before Son of Boring Site News?

Perhaps it could have been Boring Site News Has Risen From The Grave?
Boring Site News Must Be Destroyed?

Relax: I've been stock-piling titles for the next thrilling installments. I sure hope nobody gets killed in the stampede to read them.

I just thought that Boring Site News would need a bride before the son could be produced. But I think that Bride of Frankenstein did come before Son of Frankenstein. If that was Hollywood being logical, something was very much amiss. ;D
