Week in Review 9/28/13

The Awakened galley proof cut off was yesterday, so we are in the final stages of its production, hoping to see eBook in October and print copies Oct/Nov!!!!!

Cover and stories for The Awakened II are underway.

Sam the Hanukkah Dragon is getting reworked with my new collaborator and illustrator Stan! Brown

King of Thieves is still being tweaked and playtested.

Two more weeks for Bluffside for C&C pre-orders

Necronomicon is 3 weeks away now.  If you are going drop me a line.

We are working on quotes for Fall of Man print run to start getting the Kickstarter in line, hope to have it launched by end of the year.

Weekend Update 9/22/13

We are continually working on the web site in trying to make it as cleaned and informative as possible. Samurai Sheepdog

The Awakened book I will be completely laid out an edited very soon and I'm looking forward to it and assuming it will begin an October release.

Fall of man that is 80% done and we have people ready to go to complete it and all of the additional books once are Kickstarter funds.  Right now we're working on budgets and size of the books in order to determine what we need to do to make this project successful.

The rest of the projects are coming along at different stages with different people as well, nothing new to report.

The only thing a little different is my health I am having some issues and going to the doctor to determine what level and seriousness my issues are currently at.

Really Cool Mini idea

This idea is so cool to me...
Personalized mini's

Kickstarter for Mimic Miniatures

Bluffside Available for Pre-Order and Weekly Update

Big news is Bluffside for C&C is ready for pre-order, book is done so you get the PDF version within 72 hours of purchase!

Fall of Man moving ahead!
The Awakened book I is due back end of this month so I am assuming eBook by mid-October and print by end of October.
All the boardgames are looking good.

Our Samurai Sheepdog website should be up by the end of the week, so that is nice.

Sam the Hanukkah Dragon is stopped for a bit but hopefully moving ahead faster once we get some details in order.

Week in Review 9/8/13

Moving forward on some items:
Bluffside for C&C
The Awakened
The Awakened II
Fall of Man
a Samurai Sheepdog website

Other things are set at a no change mode.

Just trying to remember what I am missing and at the same time try not to hurt my arms/wrists.
On a personal note, my nerve damage that I had surgery for a few years ago may be rearing its head again, which is odd, since I now use special mice (home and work) as well as purposely not be on the computer at home as much as I would of been pre-surgery.

Not a good sign...

The Big Picture

With all these projects and the freelance jobs I currently have I decided we really need to have a full web presence, not just a FB page for Samurai Sheepdog.

That will be the next project I undertake, find someone skilled in web design, that is reasonable in price to get our look and feel down pat.

Due to so many projects and varied at that, I am thinking we do something like:

RPGs
Boardgames
Books/Anthologies/Shorts-Fiction
in addition to the
About Us/Contact Us
Purchase
Links
Media
Home


So that will be a side projects as we go.

Oh and Tony S may have a really nice, big deal coming up, so as soon as it is official look here and on his FB page for updates.

Happy Labor Day Update

Still working slowly on my children's book.

The Awakned anthology is in final proofs for layout and I am hoping to have it in your hands soon.

The Awakened II is being worked on, cover and stories and we are actively discussing the RPG setting for it as well.

It looks like Samurai Sheepdog is looking to release 3-4 big projects a year, exciting news for us.

Had a great phone meeting with Darrin Drader, well when his phone did not cut us off.

Tony Sczcudlo is working on some stuff for me and other companies, if you have a project, drop me a line and let's see if we can keep him busy.
