ANY profit. Like, all of it. I'll be making probably $3-$4 a book after taxes. |

As much as I'd like to want to buy this, I can only imagine how hard I'd get charged for shipping.

Australia? $20 economy, $23 express. So it would be a $50 book. |

The inside flaps on the hardcover are bonus content, imo. Also, it actually reads like a story. I'd say that's bonus content too. Pictures? lol. No. Maybe one day. I'd love to do a visual version. |

I just spammed a shitload of you on facebook with the release date. I made it a fuckin' event! Fuck yea! With a typo on the fucking invite because they give you this huge fucking box but limit the invite to a goddamn scant 300 characters or something. Idiots. Anyway! Yea! I'll be posting some of it over the next couple weeks there. Become fans, suckas. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Eric-Schild/116403858819 |

Why are you spamming an ENTP quiz on Facebook? Because 50 other people in my feed did today and I was on facebook all day doing QQ stuff, so I thought why the fuck not? |

Facebook cuts out indentations. And I'm trying to post book excerpts. They really are a bucket of assholes. I can't even space it out 7 times. /anger

I don't know what this means. I'm sure it's something I should know, but hey, I don't. |

Economy is ~$8, so you could probably use the free shipping coupon I'll put up, but you may never get the book(s).
Priority is ~$30+.

Payday on this contract end of the month. I'll be buying a copy. Just to put it on the shelf for complete BG/II completeness. With the boxes. And the art.

This is awesome if only to see a project come to fruition, which is rare imo.

Sometimes it's tough being a broke college student. This is one of those times.
I can picture a fat little German kid walking into a rustic used bookstore in order to escape the rain and bullies and then finding this book sitting on a thick, wooden table. While the shopkeeper has his back turned, the kid steals the book so he has something to read during bully-avoidance hours in the school attic or boiler room.
I don't know what that means, but grats on the project.

Shouldn't the text have been justified with both left and right alignments?

God no. Copy and paste yourself a few sentences into Word and do that. See what happens. Fixing it is a job for a publishing house. We are not a publishing house. And stop trolling, you already know what happens when you try and do that. |

Stop being paranoid, I saw the pages and found it odd that it wasn't justified, nothing more than that.

And you're looking like an idiot while doing it. Gratz, I guess. Don't be a drama queen, schild.
Tell you what, send me a .doc/docx of the text and I'll justify the thing properly.

Quite the contrary. For those of us who don't care, you look like a douche. |
