It has been a while since I posted the last episode, but I am considering continuing the story. So I was wondering
is anyone still interested in it?

Wow, ok. Silence speaks volumes.

With some free time, I was just trying to decide on my next Dark Sun project. So Sands and Athas is definitely out. I have some other ideas I have be considering, so I will relook at those and see what I feel like working on next.

I think its more a matter of people just being busy as of late. Why, before today, the boards have been horribly slow for weeks now. I, for one, happened to rather enjoy your story. It put some good ideas into the ol' noggin o' mine.

I do think Phoenix_M's suggestion of a proofread could do alot of good. Also, I kind of wish that you would've just left Farcluun out of the story and kept it simple, ie. no metaplot. BUT - I DID INDEED FIND ENJOYMENT FROM IT!!!!

I think many here would enjoy your story. Some of the newer members would, I imagine, enjoy the older portions as well.

Did I mention GTA4?

Oh no, encouragement. Just when I decided to move on to something else. ;)

About Farcluun, well I know I made some mistakes when running the campaign = I wanted to start with a war and needed a villain so I just grabbed him. But when I was writing the journal I did not want to change too much, but instead tried to make it seem more enjoyable and less haphazard.

In any case, I am getting excited about trying something new. Setting a story in Balic. Should not include any metaplot but I still need to determine who far I can take it.

I do not think I can do both, but maybe I can at least go back and edit Sand and Ashes to remove the spelling mistakes.

Also I take it the Gta4/thug thing is some sort of a in-joke I'm on the outside of?
