Yes, I'm starting to get organized for TrollsZine! #7. This one is scheduled for release in January/February 2013. This is a little off of my original schedule, but other demands in life come first I'm afraid.
This will also be my last issue as editor of TrollsZine!. I am more than willing to serve as co-editor of #8, but this is an official call for volunteers to take on the job.
Ok, here is what I have slotted for TZ7 so far:
2 Full Articles 1 Misc Feature
Here is what I need:
1 Monster/NPC description article 1 GM adventure 1-2 Articles (House Rules, Expansions, Variants, Alternate Worlds, etc.) 1 Short story 1 Misc. Feature (Short articles or humor pieces 1-2 pages long)
I will of course be needing art. I have a number of excellent regular artists that I know I can count on, but more is always better.
I do have a list of copy editors that I'll be contacting, but feel free to volunteer.
As always, ad space in TrollsZine! is free. If anyone wants to place an ad in TZ7 just let me know and I'll reserve a spot.
Also, if I missed any T&T related websites in the Troll Links section give them to me.
That's all for now. Let the submissions and volunteering begin. You can post your thoughts here or send me a PM.

Aw Dan, just when I thought you were gaining steam. You have a knack for this.
Obviously, everyone knows the job takes alot of time and effort, so real life demands should take precedence. Kudos to you for 2, and one more to come, successful issues. It shows real dedication. Thanks.
Once more, I'm open to illustrating any piece that may need art.

Well on top of the articles I've already submitted I have a bunch of monsters that I'd be happy to present for TZ7.
Just let me know if you'd like me to send them along and where to.

Dan , you have done an amazing job, and I look forward to TZ 7 (haven't finished reading number 6!). Thank you so much for stepping up to the plate, and guaranteeing a more than 100% increase in Trollszine production, and giving new life to a stalled T&T project.

Thanks for the votes of confidence Derv and Zanshin. I had originally only intended to get the stalled issue #4 published and then new issues #5 and #6, but something about three issues seems incomplete. I think I have one more in me, then I need to devote my sparse free time to my own neglected projects.
Of course volunteers have not exactly been lining up. This may call for a separate thread.

Perhaps editingi is a particular type of pasta distinguished by little pasta shapes of punctuation and proofreaders marks? Probably goes well with a red sauce and nice cabernet sauvignon....

In my job as a Quality Data Analyst, my responsibility is to make sure everyone else's stuff is correct. My own work is not (necessarily) checked.
Editingi ... Hmmm... That would make a good name for a little hamlet near the Authoro Mountains, not far Publishi City. Other geographical features might include the Critici Swamp, Wri-Block Forest, and the Deadlino River.

Or a new monster for Trollzine7?Here is my view of the Editingis. Now, what could be their stats and description? Edit: "The Editingis are humanoïds living in the ruins in a faraway jungle. The first mention of their existence was to be found in the works of the adventurer Sligo the sage, when he described his encounter with them..."

I love the way that a single extra character added to a single word has inspired 3 totally different ideas! ;D
I'm going to Exalt all 3 of you. It will take a little while, allowing breaks for recharging, but it will happen.

Danhem, I have an idea for a monster article. What kind of word count are you looking for and what is the submission deadline?
