[edit] NOTICE: Not original article, was split off

This was NOT the original article (so the history in The Grantville Gazette matters for older records) covering the wider commonalities for the various articles on the Grantville Gazettes (Vol-I through Vol-VIII, as of this writing, though ten are under contract to Baen Books per Eric Flint.

[edit] The First Book title issues

  • The original 'first-book' title in this sub-series is the one of the print edition, The Grantville Gazette. However, that title was applied while it was still an experment in publishing, and not an ongoing self-funding mult-volume sub-series and a financially successful concern and the soul if not the heart of an historic collaborative publication.
  • As a consequence of the seven currently extant volumes, the decision was made to split and reorganize the coverage on these works today since I am a unanomous committee of one working this project. FrankB 04:41, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] As of 4/27/06

  1. The Grantville Gazettes (new - 4/27/06) supplants the general article formerly under this title with the same unupdated contents heretofore held under the title (The Grantville Gazette [singular!] ). That is to say, the article The Grantville Gazettes is a type of main article that will explain and tie the various grantville gazette articles together and be linked to from within each of those.
  2. The Grantville Gazette, since it is the title of the eBook and print published work will cover the original first book published by this common name.
  3. Article sequence titled: Grantville Gazette II, Grantville Gazette III, ..., Grantville Gazette VII etc. have been or will soon be created coresponding to their respective works. This will allow each publications works to have the proper amount of coverage, and maintain overall flexibility.

[edit] As of 18-09-2007

There are 14 (XIV) issues. The main 1632 article and this one are seriously lagging behind. ;) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.100.250.22 (talk • contribs) 08:41, 18 September 2007

[edit] Gazettes

There should be a note stating that the e-versions and print versions are not exactly the same. And probably something about the differences 70.51.9.170 (talk) 06:43, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
