GUD Issue Three (and other updates)



So, how're we doing with Issue Three of GUD?

We've read the first proof, and our layout editor (Sue Miller) has made corrections. Now we're reading the second proof, hoping to catch anything we didn't see the first time round--and making sure we didn't inadvertently add any new problems!

Meanwhile, we're asking our artists to upload the full-res versions of their artwork. Some of them are being a little slow, but they'll get there :). Cover artist Zak Jarvis has sent us the beautiful final version of the cover, and in-house artist Sue Miller has created a fancy new "GUD" logo to go with it. I can't wait to show it to you! (but kaolin says I have to)

It's still full steam ahead with our reviews of other people's books and magazines. We publish a new review every week, and there's usually a raffle to give our readers a chance to win the review copy. This week, it's Paul Elwork's "The Tea House" (UK/EU only; conditions apply).

Issue Four Instigator Julia Bernd is snowed under with slush, so we're asking for a little more patience from our contributors while she wades her way through it. We're not ignoring you; we're just a little snow-blinded :).

Kaolin is implementing a nifty update to the site--you'll be able to see at a glance which blog and review threads you've commented on :). A great way to check if you've entered our latest raffle!

And last but not least--GUD Issue 0 is now available on Amazon.com for the Kindle. So if you have one of these new-fangled devices, now you can get a great magazine to complement it :).

That's all for now--I've got to get back to that proof. The first one took me six hours to go through!
