Blurry eyed but working away

Monday was a looooong day

Wayne finished laying out Fleets of the Three Galaxies™, Alex and Julius prepped for shipping The Rifter® #47 and catalogs today, and me – I did a mountain of work. I paid bills, made my travel arrangements for my daughter's wedding, talked with Tommy Yune and Jason Marker about upcoming Robotech® projects and I spoke with Mark Dudley, Kathy Simmons, Apollo Okamura, the Printer, my insurance agent and a visiting fan from Atlanta (hey, Michael). But mostly (as in like 12 hours), I worked on the last 16 pages of Fleets of the Three Galaxies™ which is taking a bit longer than I had anticipated. It’s the magic section, and rules and system stuff ALWAYS takes longer than other forms of writing. My day started at 8:00 AM Monday morning and ended 1:00 AM, um, today, Tuesday.

8:00 AM Tuesday morning, and I am back to finish the section up (it’s 75% done) and Fleets of the Three Galaxies™ will go in to the printer by noon today. I checked my emails, wrote this Murmur and the rest is Fleets till it is done!

The Rifter® #47 ships today and tomorrow!

The Rifter® #47 ships out this afternoon! It looks great, reads great, and plays great. We are just waiting for the new Palladium Catalog to arrive so we can ship them out together.

Mysteries of Magic™

The next book is Mysteries of Magic™ and then Dimensional Outbreak™ followed by Robotech® Marines Sourcebook™ and a lot more, including cool non-book items like a Rifts® baseball cap, more coffee mugs and other good stuff.

There’s probably more to talk about -- sales are down from great sales last week, but not too bad, Kathy has more life-sized Ghouls for sale in her Queen of Ghouls online store, and other stuff -- but I need to finish up Fleets!!!! So I’ll talk with you later.
