Ten Swords To Die For is Not Dead Yet!
Okay, several fans have already asked what is going on with the release of 10 Swords to Die For. Well it must be said that much of our support staff (and you know who you are) has left to pursue other vocations in the past few months and this has left us looking for a new support team (feel free to check out our submissions page).

"Everything is coming together. We have beautiful artwork coming in from Albert Debnam, as well a couple of other freelancers, and the text itself is being hammered away by (Randy Miller, President) while I am working on some of the editing and the getting the website up and running."
While fans were expecting an end of year release, Roderick says that a summer release is more likely. "The reality is that Randy and I just do not want to rush a product to the market before its ready. It's the right way to do business and our fans deserve a quality book."
