Things happening slowly.

[ffutures]

I haven't posted much in the last few days because I've been pretty busy at work, and pretty tired when I get home. This is fairly typical for the first couple of weeks of the new academic year, when I'm still getting up to speed, hopefully things will be on a more even keel soon.

One small titbit of news; I got some sales figures from e23 a couple of days ago, and while The Original Flatland RPG hasn't sold as well as I had hoped, I should still be able to give Doctors Without Borders about fifty pounds once the next royalty cheque reaches me. Meanwhile Diana continues to sell moderately well, with Elvis trailing it a little. None of this will make me even remotely rich, unfortunately, but I wasn't really expecting that anyway.

If anyone has bought Flatland or any of my other games from e23 I really would be VERY grateful if you could rate them; that really does seem to help sales, and since Flatland is entirely a charity project it needs all the help it can get.

In other news, I've written a little more of FF X and the advertising thing, not as much as I'd hoped because of tiredness, and am making occasional notes for fanfic in my rare quiet moments. Don't expect to see anything soon, it just isn't gonna happen.

I was a playtester for Flatland. Assuming my help was enough to rate a 'comp' copy, if you could tell e23 that I should get one (that's how I got Best of JTAS as an author), then I'll rate it. My e23 userid is "etherflyer".

I rated the tunnel adventure -- hope that helps a bit :-)

I thought I'd given you access instructions to get it from my site - if I didn't, my apologies. Get back to me as marcus dot rowland at gmail dot com and I'll tell you how to download it - or does it have to come from e23 before you can rate it?

Forgot to say thanks for rating the Tunnel adventure - I noticed that someone had when I was checking e23 before making my post.

You can only rate what you download from e23. I still have the copy I downloaded from your site (assuming that it didn't change since I last downloaded it, anyway).

Ok - I'll see about getting you a copy. Hadn't realised it worked that way.

No hurry. I'll rate it when (if) it happens...
