In which we are pleased...

So, my author's copies of Predators (the latest Werewolf supplement and my first published game writing work) haven't arrived yet. If I'm lucky I'll get them before the new project I'm working on for White Wolf comes out, oh, sometime next year. It's really very silly.

However, I did get to see the book for the first time in print yesterday! I tracked down a copy in a local comic store and stood there giggling to myself and trying to not do the happy dance in the aisles.

I must say, Walker Breaker really came out well, and the art they created to go with it /rocked/. I loved the unihar, and the little fiction piece about the spirit with the thing for eyeballs really complemented the art work they'd commissioned well, which was the goal, since the art was finished before the fiction was conceived of.

All in all, I'm pretty pleased. I wish there were more reviews on line so that I could see what other folks thought.

Did you do the spirit chapter? Rock on with your bad self. That chapter is awesome.

My players' pack might well be running afoul of Walkerbreaker sometime soon.

I did! I did the Spirit Chapter and the Spirit Bestiary (and the opening fiction for the spirit chapter, but not the opening fiction for the whole book.)

*Blush* Thanks for the complement, I take it very highly considering the source.

Ok, I gotta know, 'cause me caveman. What's with the whole 'our authors can have their copies eh . . .sometime later after regular folks' deal anyway?

By the way, the book rokx. You know it.

:o)

I don't know about how things normally work. In my case, it was possibly my fault, as we were moving to New England on the 25th of July and Predators released on the 27th. We weren't signing the paperwork on our house until the 27th (staying in a hotel until then), so I didn't want to give out the potential new address until it was a done deal (seemed just too likely to tempt the fates to interfere). So I asked Ethan not to send it out to me until I got the new address to him.

Now why they weren't sent out as soon as they came back from the publisher, I've got no clue, but it's not like I'm a diva who needs too much in the way of special priveleges to keep me happy, so I figure why fuss?

I actually did just get my copies today, and am pretty darned happy with them.

And thanks for the complement. I'm glad you liked it. Everyone really did a great job, I'm thrilled to have been part of the project.
