[QUOTE="JohnNephew, post: 158886, member: 2171"] Let me just say that I would personally find it a real joy to bring Mystara (heh, I still think of it as "Known World") books out for D20. Thanks for the kind words about PC1. It's really nice to read them. Back when I wrote that book, there simply wasn't the kind of feedback you get from readers today. It tickles me to no end that you appreciated it! All those all-night writing sessions paid off! (Long nostalgic digression: I wrote almost all of PC1 during my Christmas break, my sophomore year of college. I'd sleep all day, get up in the evening, go socialize a bit, and then write, write, write all night long, and sometimes top it off with a crisp run around sunrise. I remember one amazing morning when it was like running through faerieland -- it was a warm December, and it had been raining, and so this morning every tree around the town and the college arboretum was sheathed in ice and glittering with tiny icicles, and everything was so quiet, like time itself was frozen. I went to Carleton College, which has this weird 6-week winter break, whereas some folks I had recently met were townies (like Nicole Lindroos) and Oles (St Olaf College students and alumni, like Mark Hagen and Jonathan Tweet), so they were around to hang out with while most of my classmates were home for the holidays. And if anyone is wondering if Northfield, MN, puts folks in a mind for the fey, there are also a few fantasy novels out there written by alumni and set in the town or a reasonable facsimile thereof...)
