Erik will there be extra material in your next ebook? For example, a map of Westgate. |
I hope Candlekeep continues to be the friendly forum of fellow Realms-lovers that it has always been, as we all go through this together. If you don’t want to move to the “new” Realms, that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with either you or the “old” Realms. Goodness knows Candlekeep, and the hearts of its scribes, are both big enough to accommodate both. If we want them to be.

I don't have a name for you. The best I can do, SFD, is to recommend advocating for it on wotc's site, on Facebook, twitter, etc.
You can send me an email to forward to the book department, if you like.

Well they had worshipers who followed the darker death gods. The monks wanted to understand the nature of death and how it affected living tissue.(PGtF pg.65) They didn't wish to send all life to the void. They just didn't care what happened afterwards. I keep thinking there is another source that mentions Kelevmor trying to convert them. |

Erik, I just wanted to make sure I gave you a proper thank you for all you did with the Candlekeep seminar. 4.5 hours, that for us in the audience felt went by too fast! Also glad I had the chance to slip to the front and have you sign a bookmark. I wanted to introduce myself as who I am on here, but just didn't have the heart to give you another reason to stay even later!
You did a great job doing all you could get away with, since the keynote was still going on. maybe next year I will get a chance to by you a beer or three that you have more than earned. |

I think I recognized you, TRW. We've met before. Were you the goodsir sitting next to Ben the Tree?
And I got to sleep around 3:30 am that night. Not your fault by any means.

Erik,
Thanks for the great roundtable @ the Candlekeep seminar. Had a great time and was in awe of the FR / TSR / DnD panel of great-ones! I also appreciate you guys /gals passing around my Charon's Claw book and giving it a +5 status! It is truly a treasure now...only missing Bob's autograph. If you ever come through Phoenix there is an Everfull-Mug with your name on it!

I didn't know he was a tree , but I was sitting by Benjamin. Nice guy, met him waiting to get in. Small world, since he works just up the street from the plaza.
And good memory, we did meet a few years back at an Ed Spin a Yarn. Another reason I didn't want to keep you later and possibly deny a chance for someone wo hasn't met you.
And can't wait to devour EOJ as soon as it is available. |

I hope to take care of that myself, though I'd welcome the echoing request. Mention it on the WotC boards? Here at the keep?

Great idea! I just wish I was a bit more eloquent and convincing. But at least I can let the PTB I'd appreciate it. |

Erik, when do we get to see more, a lot more of the world of Ruin?
Just finished your short in When The Villain Comes Home....I was looking forward to seeing Lea in the future have to live with her guilt and Wham! ....I should have seen it coming, but I was to busy trying to soak In Every detail for future reference when reading more of this world. But I'm even more curious to see what the future cold hold for Mask....interesting guy there ya got. |

I've made a commitment to myself that I'm either selling the novel to a publisher or self-publishing the first World of Ruin novel within the next year. So I hope by GenCon 2013.
And I wouldn't give up hope of seeing Lea again.

But I 'spose I can be patient since EOJ is near.

A short story that ties in with Shadowbane: Eye of Justice has now been posted for your reading pleasure:
http://wizards.com/dnd/Article.aspx?x=dnd/drfic/shadowbane
This is a companion story in my tradition of writing companion stories for all my novels, so don't worry about spoilers. You can read it before, after, or during the novel, and the time you pick will just subtly alter the information you get from it.
Chronologically, it happens between the prologue and the bulk of the novel--7 years after the prologue, 3 years before the novel itself.
It introduces a character (Levia Shadewalker) who is also introduced in the prologue of the novel, and mentions several people who show up there as well (particularly the organization of the Eye of Justice).
And it features an appearance by Cellica, Kalen's adopted sister, who hasn't been seen since Downshadow!
And it's completely free. No DDI subscription required!
What are you waiting for? Go read it!
Cheers |
Erik Scott de Bie

Got it...downloaded and saved...but I can't make myself put EOJ down to read it! Nice shoutout from GT to start part II, was sweet finding that nugget(I find that bit where Old Man Tay get beatdown great reading)
I saw the date.....and started a few lines...but I really dont want to distract my already hard to focus mind from the novel. Glad to hear his sister makes an appearance! |
