Dots,

I have been reading your stories since the beginning, and have been astounded at the quality of writing and storytelling. You really have a knack for it. I have not read through anyone else's fan fiction ever, but yours grabbed me and kept me coming back. Personally, I think it's far better than some of the trash published in some Star Wars novels that I've read. I think it's a shame you can't make some money off of it.

I only come to this forum to read your stories, although I am still playing SC2. :)

Have you considered an ePub version?

Anyways, I want to thank you for the fantastic story, and I hope you enjoy whatever you decide to spend your time on now.

He's waiting for me to work on the last book covers. And I'm busy with university for the next 6 weeks.

But for the rest, an ePub version is ready to go.

Not bad. :D

Bit too flashy meaning can't see much (but if that's a basilisk, I assume its meant to be that way?)

Otherwise who'se the dude in the suit? Looks nice otherwise though.

Yeah, its a Basilisk. I had the idea of a Basilisk as soon as the unit turned up on Alpha Seven. When I worked on screenshots of the unit, I got one in which you look straight through the tunnel of one of the bigger bolts. It was perfect to have it like that. The two ACU's make it a bit harder to recognize it as a shot heading directly towards you, but they simply couldn't be left out.

It might also be the greyscale, which of course is necessary because the image represents an "In Memoriam".

Dots, have you gotten all of the necessary covers yet?

Edit: Do you have a name for the whole series?

Now all I need is the free time to put it all together. Hopefully I should have some before the next weekend.

Also, do you need any help editing? I've noticed a ton of grammatical errors and a few typos over the series, especially the earlier books.

If you got Word, Dots, I'd recommend copy/pasting your story into it. You don't have to pay attention to half of the grammatical errors it'll report back, but you'll find a good number of spelling mistakes that way. Your first book, I think it was, you misspelled someone's name in there. I don't remember where (or who), I just remember seeing it in Word and being like "Whoa... I wouldn't have realized that otherwise." :P

Err... once I do finish those pdf files, how and where should I put them? I'm also wondering if I should do a quick job and simply reformat everything or take my time and release one book per week or something.

I'd say take your time and get it right. You're publishing something.

You could just upload it onto something like mediafire and just provide the link here in the forum.

There will be a slight additional delay; I have a family medical emergency :(

Nothing life threatening, but its eating lots and lots of time.
