Hey folks, Sylvan here!

First things first: my profuse apologies for not updating all of you sooner! It has been a crazy couple of weeks over at Clawhammer, not to mention the busyness of all our day jobs. Regardless, it's not fair to keep you waiting to hear from us, and although there are likely not many more updates to be had in the future, I will do my best to be more prompt with them. Today's agenda includes three main components: Delays, Gratitudes, and Legends.

Due to a variety of complicating factors, we're going to have to push back our fulfillment  until early/mid January. Our original timeline was ambitious, but it's really important to me that the team can take their time and get everything perfect than to rush even a single aspect of the product. I'm confident that when you see the finished product, you'll feel the same way. It's possible that we'll have books and boxes shipped out even sooner than mid January, but I don't want to make promises.

That being said, fulfillment for the basic tiers is starting this week. IPR has been in con season, which means that they've been running all around the country for weeks on end with nary a moment to rest (bless their hearts), but with Pax Unplugged concluding this past weekend, they're back to their usual schedule and can proceed with BTF fulfillment.

With the holiday season comes the obligatory period of light, warmth, and comfort that contrasts the cold and dark of the outside world. Personally, I've always loved winter--it's my favorite season, and I am at my happiest during the shortest days of the year. It's times like this that make me especially grateful for all of you. Making art, especially art that requires a group of audience members, can feel both lonely and isolating. Games are only games once they are played, and it can often seem like when I am writing, I am tossing ideas off a cliff and hoping someone at the bottom will walk by and catch one.

So... thanks for catching one. Thank you for sticking around. Thank you for being you, and for supporting countless other artists just like me, like Nic, like Reese and MC and Dominique.

It's finally time: I am proud to announce our Book of Legend guest writers! Aside from Nic and myself, our guest contributors are:

The work that these three have done on the book already is outstanding, and I'm more and more excited about the final product every day. It's also looking like the book may be even longer than we initially anticipated... instead of 50 pages, we might be looking at closer to 75 or 100!

Thank you again for all of your patience and understanding. Stay safe, stay warm, stay bright.

With lantern lit and fireplace roaring,
Sylvan
