Any new updates on the book?

The book is coming together nicely. I'm very close to handing Wulf 80-90% of the book so he can start layout.

It's been a slow process for two main reasons:

1. I keep adding stuff, and
2. I'm a perfectionist.

I'm really happy with the way things are coming together though. It's extremely complete: everything has a stat block. I've also rewritten every single ability and rule for clarity and consistency and implemented a new special attack format.

The last section I'll be working on is monster advancement. I have some basic ideas but there are still some things to be worked out.

Woo! for monster advancement!

Say, are you having other sets of eyes, besides yours and Wulf's, check through any parts? The more eyes, and all that . . .

Say, FWIW, did you pay much awareness to monster abilities for when PC's have access to them? I'm thinking of the Trailblazer druid's wild shape Elemental Form or Plant Form particularly. But certain spells come to mind as well.

When it's done.

I don't really want to put a time table on it because I don't want to rush to get it out the door. I want it to complete and solid.

I have a first draft of about 80% of the book done. Wulf should be starting layout in a week or two on that. My next task is the monster advancement section. I've done some brainstorming and the nuts and bolts are starting to come together.

My hope is early 2011.

My hope is early 2011.

Thanks for letting ME know.

LOL!

If you need more eyes to catch errors or copyediting gaffs, I'd still like to put my foot forward if it would help it get to finish sooner.
