sonofliefeld, it's happening! Here's the truth: I have been laboring over the things I wanted to write for it, here and there and now and then; but I haven't taken the next steps with the other submissions yet. I also have some logistics questions that aren't entirely resolved, but those aren't holding up the works right now. It's still moving forward, just slowly. With the holiday season creeping up, I don't think it will come out before January. So the "Spring" issue I pictured looks realistic (now in terms of semesters), just a different year than I hoped.

I have made a submission - essentially a retread of something I prepared for Ken which he decided not to use. I have sent it your email.
Hopefully we will have a deluxe Trollszine to celebrate in 2016!

So around 6 months have passed since I last asked and no further developments have been given, is it okay to assume this is dead now?

Hello,
I am interested in seeing Trollszine continue. I am only just becoming familiar with the game, but I am relying on solos and other articles (such as the ones describing Delverton) to learn what I need to hopefully write some T&T flavored solos or interactive fiction of my own. If I can help move the production of future issues forward, I would be happy to consider doing so.

The votes are in!
I won't bore you with the details, but there were three children involved; combined with moving to a new house, and renovations, it added up to putting off the zine without feeling any remorse at all.
I will review my editorial chores next week and reach out to the folks who generously offered to look over manuscripts. Thank you, generous folks!
A quick note to all the TrollsZine! Kickstarter backers: We didn't get any money! We can't issue your refunds! We didn't even run a Kickstarter!

I am being guiltily slow with my sub edit responsibilities. I am 75% done but that last 25% keeps not happening. Apologies, I will try to make time soon. Family responsibilities, work, blah blah blah. Came across someone making their art available for free use (with attribution) at the rpg site. Worth a look /contact perhaps? www.therpgsite.com/showthread.php?9614-Free-Art!

[ModHat On] With respect, sonofliefeld , have you offered any assistance? Have you submitted any articles? Offered to proof-read or copy-edit? Perhaps drawn up some art to grace the pages or offered your skills to help with layout? I see nothing in this thread where you have nor in the thread calling for volunteers to take over as editor for issue #9. All I see is a series of complaints regarding the length of time that a freely available, community supported, volunteer run fanzine is taking to produce. Enough's enough. Either step up, offer some assistance and take on some responsibility or hold your own council. The snark is unappreciated. [/ModHat]

What you call snark I just call requests for at least an update... Oddly enough silgo received a lot more negativity during his tenure as editor from multiple posters and no one was called to task over that

If there's any help I can give, I am happy to offer it. Many thanks for keeping this alive
