I am going to spend the next few days concentrating on the Eidolon revision and Loremaster Legacy print version. Must be practical...

Yes, unfortunately I was reading it in the BlackBerry PlayBook, which doesn't have an official app, so Kindle books don't always turn out so well. At least not in the UK; it may in the US. It's too uncomfortable reading it on a computer though.

I have better look with epub.

I am giving it one last read-through before submitting it (and yes, there will be different cover art), but as the writer, I miss things. So last chance to send me your typos!

For the online versions, I have been testing the exports from InDesign and they seem kind of wonky, so we will see

Hah hah, well there is a digital preflight that the files have to go through before they are approved for printing. You would think that I have it down to a science by now, but you never know, this is a different size format.

The most impressive thing I think is that you managed to finish the book at all. I have started to write a novel at least 8 or 9 times and run out of steam after the first chapter every time.

I have to admit that even I am kind of excited about seeing a printed copy of the thing. The people who have done the recent PoD modules do a great job, especially with the quality covers. And I am still quite proud of my copies of my old Spy in Isengard book in several languages  :)

Glad I was able to help to get the ball rolling!  :)  One question: Will we have the character bios?

Thanks,

Yes, I did add (very brief) character bios at the end for all the major people.

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Scratch that. Power attracts the corruptible.

Rules should not replace the brain and thinking.

When can we expect the PDFs / electronic files to be updated?

I'm not sure. The PDF is easy, but the other formats were exported out of Word with much difficulty.

When I update the ebook version, that will be a free download to original purchasers of course.

So, buyers of the print version who have gotten it, what do you think?
