JMS's new scriptwriting book has just been listed on LOCIS (Library of
Congress Information System); the listing is enclosed below.  This looks
like a preliminary listing since the page count (p.) and size (cm.) are
not given.  Note also, LOCIS gives the projected publication date as
9611 (November 1996); this differs from the October publication date
which has been mentioned previously.

The information below should be sufficient to order a copy through your
local bookstore.  Note: according to JMS, a copy of the script for the
Hugo nominated episode "The Coming of Shadows" is included.

Questions for JMS:

   1) Will you be doing a book tour for your scriptwriting book?

   2) How can we get your book signed in the event of no book tour?

"1) Will you be doing a book tour for your scriptwriting book?"

There are no plans for that at present, though I may try to coordinate
something or other when I do the occasional convention.

"2) How can we get your book signed in the event of no book tour?"

Conventions, mainly.  Problem is that the book is coming out right when
we're in the thick of production, and getting away at this time is nearly
impossible.
