Everyone,

I apologize for the long silence on the progress of the Best of S&SM1 anthology. It has been very slow so it has been hard for me to talk about. At the moment I am still waiting for two pieces of art to come in. I have hope that they will be finished soon, but won't make any predictions on how much longer they will take lest I disappoint you. Once they do arrive I will try to get things together to go to the printer as quickly as possible. Meanwhile, I am chasing down my writers again to get contracts signed and payments to them made. I am also getting things set for the layout process that will be completed as quickly as I can once the art is all in.

Once again, I am sorry for not keeping you updated more often. I'll try to be better going forward. On the theory that no news is not good news, I will endeavor to send out weekly updates from now on, so look to hear from me again next Tuesday.

Best regards,

Curtis
