Welcome to my first weeknote of 2012! I’m still getting up to speed after the Christmas/New Year break so this week is going to be a sedate, easy one for me (hopefully!) I’m not releasing a PDF this week. I’m giving myself a chance to ease into the year easily and so Aasimar: Heirs of Glory will release next week.

I made some slight progress over the holiday, completing my edits for Aasimar: Heirs of Glory and layout and first edit for Cultists of Havra Zhoul. This week, I’ll be creating and updating webpages for both products. I’ll also be solidifying my plans for the first part of the year. The last two months have been fantastic for Raging Swan – my two top months for sales since I started this crazy adventure. I’m obviously rather keen to build on that momentum, but I’m also mindful that January and February are probably not the greatest time to do a sales drive!

In other news, by the end of the week I should have the feedback from the playtest for Shadowed Keep on the Borderlands. Shadowed Keep on the Borderlands is my two-year anniversary product, releasing as it will in March. Its a homage to the Moathouse of Temple of Elemental Evil fame and I’m extremely keen to see how it is received.

I’ve also got to start working on a rather cool compendium in association with Julian Neale. He’s done a lot of the research and now I have to start laying out the manuscript. I’ll probably start that next week, but sadly its going to be a massive job! Currently its 240 pages of information that need to be laid out, edited and formatted. Don’t look for it any time soon!

I’ll also be putting out a call for freelancers later this week for people to work on my “So What" line. If you are interested, drop me a line.
