True. But I doubt Id even make the top ten among LUGNET members.

Youre welcome. Glad youre still enjoying the site.
Im not sure when a next book might come out in the US. While the Genesis book
was quite successful, the Christmas book did not quite perform as well as my
publisher would have hoped, and the Ten Commandments books sales have been
rather slow (looking back, I wish they had released that one in advance of
Christmas like the first two instead of rushing it out for a Spring 2005
release). So unless sales pick up, its possible my US publisher may pass on a
4th installment. That leaves me free to shop around a 4th BT book to other
publishers, but Ive been too busy building new stories recently to tend to the
business side of things (which Ive never found much fun anyhow).
Interestingly though, several other parts of the world will be seeing Brick
Testament books published in the coming year or so. A Danish version of Story
of Christmas and The Ten Commandments is on the way, as well as a Swedish
version of Ten Commandments. A Hungarian Ten Commandments may soon follow
(dont ask why theyre starting with Ten Commandments instead of Genesis,
because I have no idea!). And deals are possibly forthcoming for Brazil and
Switzerland as well. And just last week I was contacted by a publisher in
Indonesia(!). It boggles my mind to think a book I created might be published
in ten languages!
If theres any truly new Brick Testament books on the way, I will certainly
let you guys know in advance. In the meantime, be sure
buy 12 copies of each of my books for everyone
on your holiday shopping list. :)

Especially since all your minifigs seem to keep hacking each other into little
pieces and inviting the wrath of God down upon themselves.
Which reminds me, Dude, you have a ton of red 1x1 tiles!

I picked up a copy of Genesis awhile back when I saw it in my local bookstore.
(Theres something compelling about a book with nudity right out there on the
front cover, I guess.) But somehow I missed the release of the other two books.
Off to the bookstore...
