Dear fellow Dionians,

Since our launch of Tribe Grandath on April 8th, we are excited to announce that week one is over. With several tribe reports that came in, we would like to announce John Cottier as our winner! He will be receiving one Chapter of The Lion Vrie. Congratulations!

Please continue to be telling your friends and Family, and even people you don’t know about the upcoming release of The Lion Vrie on June 15th 2007. And don’t forget to be sending in your Tribe Reports.

So join in, on this exciting Mission!

Week two has now started, so get your sword and join the fight!

And So It Begins…

Greetings Dionians!

I’m very excited to log in just to post about the official start of Tribe Grandath, commencing today, April 1st 2007.

The Lion Vrie Book Trailer™ IS HERE!

Hey everyone!

The highly anticipated arrival of The Lion Vrie Book Trailer™ is at hand! After a few non-stop days, lots of missed meals, and more than one program crash, the post-production team has delivered what I think is a stunning glimpse into the perilous state of Dionia as we find it in Book II of The White Lion Chronicles.

Under the watchful eye of my assistant Producer and Director, David Seaman of Re-Vive, the Book Trailer™ is masterfully cut and assembled into exactly what I wanted: “Wow. I gotta’ read that book!” And the more people we play it for here in the office, the more my ears ring with those exact words.

To play the trailer, simply click on the vod:pod window beside this post. All the credits are below. And if you were there and don’t see your name, please let us know.

You can also view the trailer on YouTube.

The trailer will also be appearing at Creation 2007 in PA, and in select movie theaters across the US. We’ll keep you up to date on all those showings as we know more.

On behalf of Tsaba House, Grandath Films, Re-Vive, Quest Productions, AireFire Music, and COS Productions, thank you for all your support, for spreading the word about the Book Trailer™, and for buying the books.

Just as a reminder, we’ll be giving away a free book each week starting next week, running all the way to June 15th. For more details, please explore this site in more depth when you have the time. But remember, things kick off this Sunday, April 1st!

Thanks for spending some time with me today,

CH
