No, I can't find anything from you for this project.

Quit goldbricking and get back to work!

Whooops. I completely forgot about it. :oops:

What's the deadline? I'll try to submit something about the Collegium Caelestis.

Aye, aye... Have pen, will write. -Though I'll be off for about two months this summer, so a deadline before, say, September 20th might be too early for me.

Now, if I say that I write an article for QtR, I'll write an article! :)

Most likely, you can except a short gaz on a Barovian city. Thinking about Teufeldorf, in concrete.

Deadline will be Oct. 1st, but with extensions for people who have previously contacted the editors.

October 1st should work very well. :) As you might have observed, my Teufeldorf idea is slowly taking form...

Oh, by the way... I was reading past issues, and I ask a favour to all writers: turn off the damn autocorrect. Too many reference to the domain of "Tempest" out there. :P

When I submitted the article for the last issue, I noticed all the bold/italics were omitted (yes, I know how it happens while creating the layout), making the document a bit less "reader friendly".
On Ars Arcana we use particular tags (sometimes put in by the writers, sometimes by the editor) to mark bold, underlined and italic text. Is there a "tagging policy" on FoS too?

I think on submitting an article about visuals of spells so that they seem different while they do the same thing.

It's been suggested that I collate some of the work I've done about Azalin's spells into an article. I will try to do this before the deadline for QtR 14.

Wasn't there a style guide for how the QtR netbooks like NPC and monster stat blocks?

Yes, indeed, the QtR template is in the mausoleum.

I have an idea for an article musing on the nature of the Dark Powers of Ravenloft from an inhabitants perspective.

1.) Is such a proposal acceptable?

2.) Where do submissions go?
Nothing convinces like proof.
