I'm pretty sure I've replied to everything, Jeremy - maybe it's my email client that's messed up! Feel free to resend any emails, though.

The book is in the hands of the layout designer now. He's working on the novel version first, and the "GameBook" version (I haven't fully decided on a name for that - perhaps the "Deluxe" version), which is the one which will contain all of the art and all of the game mechanics will come a bit later.

I'll be sending copies to both you and Aeryn when it's done.

Yeah, I had a feeling my yahoomail was screwing up. I have not gotten any of your emails since Monday of last week. Oddly, my email is also no longer getting notifications when people post in EN World threads I've subscribed (but the "male enhancement" spam is coming through fine, of course). Time to email yahoo or something.

Hey Morrus,

I've sent you a couple of emails over the last two or three days. I know you've had some issues with your email, so I just want to make sure you got them.

I have as well, one with a big question in it. I am just trying to figure out if it is your email or mine... Yahoo mail apparently does this, and has done it to me in the past, but I thought I had licked it by parsing through my spambox regularly. If my email is problematic, I will send you an alternate address.

Hey BFG,

One of the emails I sent was addressed to you as well. It had the first chapters of the second book for editing. Did you get it?

Yup, and I sent an email to Morrus regarding it, which is what I am checking on.

Just wanted to warn you, in case you have a spam filter that bounces unfamiliar email addresses, that I am emailing you from my Hotmail account about some things.

I am still not sure that all my emails from Yahoo are reaching you, nor that yours are reaching me, so we should probably use the Hotmail from now on.

Hopefully, this will keep me from annoying others by posting on this thread about personal stuff anymore!

For those of you reading the Metamorphosis Trilogy, we have a sneak preview of Chapter 5 of the second book, The Tides of Chaos. You can download it here (430k PDF). The first book, Death of a Demon Lord, is available in both novel and "deluxe" formats from RPGNow (PDF) and ENP's print storefront (softcover). The Tides of Chaos should be available in September.

It's in the editing stage. The last release info I have is it will be released in November.

Morrus, anything more specific than that?

Nope. There won't be a 4E SRD available for quite some time, so all the books will be 3.5. Of course, we could always do a conversion at a later date.

Editing will be done by the end of October. Then it goes into layout. My guess is November.

The editor had a bereavement. I expect the edited manuscript for Book 2 by Dec 15th. In the meantime, Blackdirge has finished Book 3!
