Well, you've been on Griswold Family Vacation for how many days now ;).

Haha, it was a week and a half.  We're back now, but now I need a vacation from my vacation...
I am a warrior of ages, Anasurimbor. . . ages. I have dipped my nimil in a thousand hearts. I have ridden both against and for the No-God in the great wars that authored this wilderness. I have scaled the ramparts of great Golgotterath, watched the hearts of High Kings break for fury. -Cet'ingira

New achievement unlocked. All stories will have interior art by Somnambulist. Including the Bakker story, of course.

Yeah, I'm super excited about that.

Congratulations again, Somnambulist. Many successes recently :)!

Thanks, man.  Where's the 'raises a beer glass' emoji?  That should be a thing.
No whistling on the slog!

I was confused for a second because I swore MSJ posted the 🍻 in this thread.

I also did not realize that I could copy and paste emoticons, though, now I recall we once talked about adding more to ours repertoire.

But cheers, Som 🍻 :) !

Does anyone know if the RSB story is a TSA story or not??!

Yes. It follows a minor character that's in The Great Ordeal. I forget his name at the moment though.

Yes sir, I have. The best so far, IMHO. He packs so much meaning into each paragraph, sentence and even word, I can't wait for the 12th so I can start a re-read. Blackstone was kind enough to lend me his ARC and I sent it on as soon as I finished. Its amazing.

How is the Momemn storyline?? I have been a bit discouraged about it after reading Pat's comments.

I'll just say that at this point in the series, nothing disappoints me. Others have been critical, but as much time I have invested in these books, it delivers on every level. I can't complain, just want more and more and more. I'm a fanboy, I know. Lol. ;)

Personally I have never been disappointed by anything about the series.

Kickstarter has about 24 hours left.

So far, in addition to the original anthology that includes some 16 stories and Somnambulist's interior art, you'll get 8 more short stories, the first 8 publications of Grimdark Magazine (which probably each have an additional dozen stories), and Blackguards (which is its own anthology).

All that for a measly $12 (thats australian dollars) pledge, which gets you the ebook and all the extras.
Paperback is $30 and hardcover is $50. Shipping for international (outside USA) is pricy so keep that in mind if you want to place your pledge.
