[QUOTE="Owen K.C. Stephens, post: 2922293, member: 3190"] Hey Folks. Looks like Rodney and I have both found this thread now, and hopefully getting the word out here will help it get out in general. (I received over 120 personal emails since Amazon made their posting of it.... apparently a lot more people have my email than I thought!) There's not much we can say about the book itself, due to those pesky NDAs. When we can, I promise we will. I can talk for just a moment about the process of writing the book. When WotC offered this to me and Rodney, we both had some trepidations. We talked to each other before committing, and ran some things back and forth with Chris Perkins at WotC. What we heard (which I can't talk about – dang it) brought us both around, so we dug in. I admit that knowing I would be working on the book with Rodney is one of the reasons I took it. The Star Wars RPG is how I met Rodney, and having worked with him on a SW project before (which is still out there in the ether), and more recently on Dragon Magic, I knew we could collaborate well and produce something we'd be proud of. It's easier to work with someone if you can actually meet them in person sometimes, but for whatever reason I think Rodney and I do just as well with emails and near-daily chats. I know my sections were made better by his comments, and hope he found some of what I had to say useful. The project overall turned out better than I had hoped, once our part was done. Of course it'll be developed and edited (thank goodness), and playtested... and one of the reasons we can't talk about the book is that it's so far out a lot could change between now and then. But working on it was a lot like getting to hang out with an old friend again, and at least part of that was because I was writing it with a friend. I hope you all like it as much as we do, once it's out. And when we're allowed to, we'll happily give you a better idea what we've actually done with it. Owen K.C. Stephens d20 Triggerman [/QUOTE]
