Edit: And nobody in Iowa wants to meet up with me. That hurts. I was gonna release info on my new holiday contest, but now I don't want to now because how hurt I am. And to think I was talking about a 72 copic set as the prize. Too bad. Gonna have to wait.

Well, Advanced SERE is over and I'm heading back home tomorrow morning. It was interesting and an experience that I will not forget for a long time. Nothing is ever normal in the life of the Chief Editor...

Update on my Read and Review service: Except for Shaddox, nobody took advantage of it. I KNOW several of you have stuff just lying around that you'd love to be read and/or really need an outside opinion on. I know one person who desperately needs it, but I refuse to work on it until I get asked and we get some things cleared up. I may be professional in nature but I DO hold grudges for a long, long time. You can't upset me and piss off Asst. Ed. Toshi and expect us not to be very resentful. But this isn't a rant about my issues with someone, this is about editing.

I'm sad that nobody gave me anything. Shaddox got 4/5 stories he sent reviewed and the 5th will be knocked out on my return flight. (My thoughts on the ones I didn't talk to you about will be coming soon.) I won't be able to offer this for much longer, people. I'm starting training in a few weeks that will take up a lot of free time. If you want anything, ANYTHING, reviewed, get it to me soon. If you know anyone who needs a beta reader or whatnot, refer them to me... quickly.

Word on the street says that FP Studios is thinking about setting up our own private RPGWO server. Details are sketchy right now as nothing has been settled yet. Hopes are that something definitive will be ready by Christmas.

Heading back to Iowa for another visit next week. Exact dates are not set at this time. If anyone wants to hook up, get something to eat or just shoot the breeze, let me know. My phone number has been changed, so note me if you want it.

Still hating death knights. Fook them in their fooking OP faces.

If you have never seen the videos at [link] , I highly recommend you do so. Funny as hell. I'd recommend Fudge, Epic Phone Fail, and A Monologue for Thee. Cursing warning.

Just say no to popular demand.
