I was reading "Ender's Shadow" again and I noticed in the foward Mr. Card talks about wanting to make many battle school books with a friend. I would like to know if there is a colection of Battle School short stories out there? If not does anyone know if there will be something of the sort coming soon?
P.S. I'm sorry if this was a past topic.

The story of Bonzo Madrid, "Pretty Boy," will be coming out in the current issue of IGMS. There is a story of Mazer Rackham in the first issue of IGMS, but that doesn't take place in battle school. I believe that each issue of IGMS will contain a new story in the Enderverse. I have also heard rumors, confirmed by OSC, of a book called Christmas in Battle School. It isn't out yet, and as I understand it, it is on the backburners while the script for Ender's Game is being finished. I don't know what exactly that one will be about though. Does anyone else?

If I'm not mistaken, I think Christmas in Battle School takes place through Dink. I remember OSC coming on here to get some reminders on Dink's character from the books.
Now this is my personal guess because I don't know much about it, but I think it will be kind of Dink's transformation from a sweet little kid to the rebel to the State he became. Perhaps give a bit more perspective on just what Battle School does.

There's a collection of Battle School stories out there called: "Leather, Lace and Lasers: The real story behind Battle School."

Now there's a fan fiction I'd like to read.

Oh, yeah, right. I mean, that's just uncalled for. *looks around innocently*

I can't find any information about this anywhere, it's not listed anywhere on the site or amazon or even doing a Google search. I'd love to read it... Can you give some info about where to get it?
I'd love it if Christmas in Battle School was about Dink. That's one character that I never got to know as well as I would have liked.
