And who would that be?


ME

I've been accepted to write articles for Signs & Portents magazine (Mongoose Publications). All of the topics I submitted were given the go-ahead, then I was asked "Which do you want to do first?". I'm a little but stoked about this. All of them focus on the Mongoose tabletop miniatures games. I can't say much, but the first article is for a game that centers on starship combat from a TV show that ran 5 seasons and involved a Great War between 2 Ancient races.

Just wanted to tell someone.

That's awsome. Now we can all give you tons of feedback. Bombard you with our ideas and debate your articles. Oh, yes, I see good times ahead.

C'mon, it's common knowledge that game companies have no money. =)

OH MY GOD. Yeah, that's what I need for my already nonexistant peace of mind, a bunch of gamers that I (mostly) know personally giving me whacked out critisisim. Fuckin' A. :roll: :D



And yeah, the awesome production values of Blakes 7 starship combat really did it for me. :roll: :twisted:

I wouldn't take any of it too seriously as it is, much less professionally. (The crap people will post to you, that is :)

Congratulations.
