A dozen people have now emailed me their receipts for their donations to Doctors Without Borders via Drive Thru RPG. In fact, a few more than a dozen have emailed me, so I will throw in a baker’s dozenth book. The 13th book will be a name drawn from a hat after DTRPG shut down their fundraising efforts, so if you decide to donate through them, go ahead and email me the receipt and I’ll put your name into the hat. You guys are all extremely, extremely cool. Thank you…

Okay. Copyedits done, at least in the first pass. Tomorrow I’ll have to go through them again and either type them up or at least make sure my changes are clear enough, so that the manuscript can go back in the mail (at horrific expense) on Monday. You know I have to sell about 100 copies of the book to break even every time I ship the manuscript somewhere? Yes, these are the details of a glamorous life as a writer. :) Just in case I thought I might be…
Gamers Helping Haiti
See, this is one of the things I’ve been forgetting to post about. Drive Thru RPG has gotten together with approximately one zillion game designers and they’re offering an unbeatable package: Donate $20 to Doctors Without Borders through them, and get $1400 worth of RPG downloads in exchange.

The fundraising drive has brought in a mind-boggling $93,500 so far (I don’t know if that includes the matching funds or not, but I’m not sure…
all about the worldwalker duology
Copyedits were going along swimmingly today, me having achieved 180 pages worth of ’em and feeling like hey, I was going to make my 200 page goal without a problem, when I turned the page to a new chapter, saw through the page that there was a CE note on the next page (I couldn’t, mind you, *read* it, I just saw it was there), and thought, “Oh, fuck you.” I was clearly done at that point. :) The good news, though, is that having gotten more than 2/3rds of…
things is good.
Ted’s birthday was very nice yesterday. Kind of a quiet day all around, but we had a v. lovely dinner and he got a couple things he wanted (or one he wanted, anyway, and one he didn’t think about but which was good), and next weekend we’re going down to Cork for their annual gaming convention, so that’s the other part of his birthday and it shall be Good. We’re both looking forward to visiting Cork very much, though he’ll be at the con all weekend and I’ll be writing…
