Tywyll Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I know I've been silent for ages, but I have been working. I think I'm finished with the draft of Grimoire. Most of its sections are finished, only a couple still need feedback/editing. I wrote a bit last night and then realized that was it, I was finished with the easy part. Now comes some serious editing and then waiting for Chaosium to review it before I do the layout and artwork. So, hopefully not long now.

Please continue on into the light of publishing your work in a "printed" format..please! Penn Hi Penn, I have been reading your posts and have to comment. We monograph authors have absolutely no say as to when and if a particular book will get a printed version or not. I would suggest making your concerns known to Chaosium themselves as posting them here isn't going to make it happen. This site is not affiliated with them in any way and I doubt they even read them.

NickMiddleton Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Also, whilst things have been a little quiet at Chaosium of late, I noticed today a couple of updates from Dustin (re Arkham Now and Strange Aeons II) AND A new Blog post, so hopefully they should be a bit more responsive / communicative now...

rust Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 ... so hopefully they should be a bit more responsive / communicative now... This would be most welcome. A while ago I recommended some monographs to someone, and meanwhile he has attempted to contact Chaosium about the ship- ment charges four times without any reply.

Bygoneyrs Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Hi Rod, I will just that and send them a email. It can't hurt, I just want to buy the products in a "printed" format, and am willing to pay for it too. BTW I think this site is a AWESOME site and will begin to post here more often with more meaningful posts as well too. Thanks, Penn Quote Old time RPGer of +34 yrs, player/DM/GM.

Tywyll Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 Believe me, I would love nothing more than to see Grimoire make it into a physical book format. That would make me jump for joy, but ultimately that's up to Chaosium (and how many copies I sell I suppose). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bygoneyrs Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 May I ask how it works in publishing over there at Chaosium? Does a specific book need to reach a certain level of sales before they will offer it as a 'printed version' or what? Penn Quote Old time RPGer of +34 yrs, player/DM/GM.

The PDFs allways arrive first, which is naturally, then some weeks later usually the book appear. SGL. Quote Ef plest master, this mighty fine grub! 116/420. High Priest.

Monographs are printed via some sort of POD/short run print facility and in general Chaosium seem to order monograph prints in batches together, presumably to get a better price. There have in the past be significant gaps between the PDF release and the print release of monographs. Full distribution books are generally release in PDF only when the book is in distribution IIRC. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
