Bummer

I just got a royalty statement from SJG.. and no check. Not enough copies of Ground Forces had sold to meet their minimum for issuing a check.

I really need to write. I have ACQ 2nd Ed pending, and several ideas I could throw at e23.

The problem is the simple act of writing is difficult for me. I'm like a train, once I get started, I'm hard to stop, but getting that speed up requires a huge amount of energy.

Well, the first thing I can do is avoid temptation.. to that end, Kirsten has been instructed to hide the Madden 2003 cd from me. Too often, I will start the game for no other reason than I have nothing else to do.. even when I do have something better to do with my time.

So, starting tomorrow, I work on two projects:

1. At Close Quarters, 2nd Edition. (I have to write a long email to the development group about what we want to do.)

2. The eternally-delayed Lunion Subsector, which I might try to sell to SJG as an e23 download.

Well....

At least you had the will to ask Kirsten to hide the cd on you!

How about something shorter?

Could you do some mercenary tickets for JTAS, drawing on your knowledge of military history? I suspect Loren could use some shorter (1000-1500 word) articles...

Something to consider..
