Sorry about not posting anything lately, but it has been one of those weeks.
I’m writing slow and fighting with the Mysteries of Magic™ manuscript. It’s nothing to worry about, the book is going to be GREAT! It’s just going painfully slow.
On top of that, sales have been disappointing this week, my Dad goes in for surgery on his bladder next week (cancer, they caught it early, but I’m still kinda worried and bumming about it), another friend goes under the knife in a couple weeks (could be cancer – hope not!), learned a number of friends are having a hard time in this difficult economy, another friend is going through a rough time, there have been a bunch of stupid little problems all week, we are falling behind deadline, and . . . I just feel like screaming.
It is hard to write happy Murmurs or any Murmur when you're frustrated, out of joint and piled upon. My apologies.
Plus, I didn’t want to sound all bummed, because I’m not. I mean I am and I'm not. I guess I’m like online sales, up and down and a little dizzy.
Figured I better post something before people thought I was dead or something, so here’s my Murmur. Hope it’s not too glum.
I’m excited about upcoming products. There are some great books in the pipeline, including Mysteries of Magic™ Heck, Mysteries of Magic™ offers a lot of new insight about magic, the Palladium World, Men of Magic and Wizards, plus there is stuff about Priests, familiars, P.P.E., True Names, work for mages, apprenticeship, scroll conversion, some new and different magic O.C.C.s that you are going to love, a bunch of cool new spells, excellent artwork and other stuff that will leave your mouth watering and you wanting to play Palladium Fantasy.
Worried nobody will show up. I hope local gamers will pop by Comics Archives, this Saturday, August 29, in Redford Michigan. I am the “big” guest at the store’s big Summer blowout. All kinds of stuff on sale, giveaways, and I’ll be bringing Palladium game books to sign and sell at a 40% discount. I’ll also be happy to sign books you bring, chat and goof around. Julius and Alex will be there too. I’m always in a good mood when I’m hanging with friends and gamers, so I’m looking forward to it.
It will be fun and you save money. Tell your friends. Bring a friend and come on down!

Rifts® Bionics Sourcebook is back in print
Rifts® Bionics Sourcebook is back and available online as a special printing. It is ready to ship as of right now.
[b]Triax™, Black Vault™, and Rifts Bionics Sourcebook™ have all become available in Palladium’s online store these past couple of weeks.
Work on Warpath™ Urban Jungle™ is well under way. Mysteries of Magic™, Dimensional Outbreak™, Robotech® UEEF Marines™, Heroes of the Megaverse®, The Rifter® #48 and Warpath™, among others, are all slated for Fall release and in various stages of development. Just saw Apollo’s cover for Heroes of the Megaverse® and it’s a beauty. The art coming in for Dimensional Outbreak™ is also fantastic.
That’s it for now. Gotta get back to writing. Keep those imaginations burning bright.
Sincerely,
