I'm sure many of you are wondering about the massive delay on the magazine. My apologies for the delay in my explanation.

1. As pointed out by Deven D Atkinson on her blog, we've had some issues not only with our printer by my layout person. I'm working on getting a replacement of the later.

2. I'm in serious need of a business partner more administratively-minded than I. There are a lot of things left undone that I'm continually having to go back and fix after I realize I've messed up.

I am work very diligently to rectify these things and get not only the 2nd but 3rd issues out as soon as possible. After reading Mr. Steimle's post I told my printer to stop printing, so I could go back and double-check the proof copy. Low-and-behold, it was incorrect as he'd pointed out in the first one.

Also, sadly Mr. Waltz has decided to dedicate himself fully to Flashing Swords, which I think will be a wonderful place for him to exhibit his talents as an editor. I think Kelly is running a great project, and I think she's found a great addition in Jason. I truly hope he exceeds her expectations, as I know he did mine.

I will keep everyone posted and updated. Please don't hesitate to email my personally with questions or concerns.
