Time for a big ole update!
First, a word from our sponsors. There is a ton of work being done all over behind the scenes – everything from editing, to proofreading, and the ever-dubious rules and fact checking. A small cadre of really fine folks who do not get the credit they deserve do most of this stuff. If you think that you want to do this alone, you are insane or talented and organized beyond human recognition. I wanted to say thanks to these people – David Paul, David Benson, Alacer, Sharn, & Rigil Kent. I say it often, but it deserves a repeat - they are the people who keep 3P from looking bad (or will in the future). Well, them and you kindly folks who have offered your opinion when you saw a need. Thank you.
Second, we have an article coming out in a few days [really!]. I am mastering the fine art of PDFing, which is not as easy as it looks. I am also rediscovering the fine art of page layout. This is on a scale beyond anything that I have done before. However, I can throw words like kerning and leading around with the best of them. [That is pure confabulation in case you did not know.] What does that mean? It means that on top of doing all the other stuff, several more skills must be mastered or I must shell out some more cash and I ain’t got much of that right now.
The module is still sitting in the same place it was when I put a hold on it two or three weeks ago. That is to say, the writing is done and I am pondering a re-write to bring it a little closer to the feel of The Last Dominion. Sometimes it is important to give these things the time to puzzle themselves out in your mind before moving with the pen.
Steve is coming along well on the monster book. It really captures the feel of mythical gaming. He has had his own share of setbacks recently and I hope he finds himself in the saddle soon.
Now for that moment I promised several weeks ago…..the setting bible.
