I have recently aquired a taste for Mr Croshaws work over the last week, when an article in PCZone Magazine caught my eye. Since when I have actually played both 'stranger' and 'skeptic' after which i proceeded to read the novels.
I read 'CN' and 'Aftererich' and was horribly dissapointed that they were not completed. I haven't read a book other than some obscenely mundane manual in more than 10 years, although 'Articulate Jim' sounds interesting I am hung on the SciFi/Supernatural Genre'.
So here it is a Petition for you to complete the afforementioned novels, And 'CN' is not an embarrassment, if i could imagineer concepts like that I might scare myself into believing that my unusual and rather uninspiring loaf might contain some form of intelligent processing organic matter.
So pretty please with sugar on top, finish da flipin Novels!

Somehow, Google007, I have a strange feeling that your plea will fall on deaf ears. Regardless, welcome to the forums.

She likely would have been refering to Chefelf not noticing Yahtzee's posts about being in the various magazines. And sorry about the vote of (lack of)confidence, but I'm just going on prior example.

Problem is, the man's now on the other side of the world to when he started said novella. And its probably been a good few years, so I imagine the inspiration to the stories is now like raisins to grapes...
We can but hope, however.

Dude, like, where have you been?
Apparently I've been too busy with work. Just caught up on my FR.com reading now. Wow, that's great! As for server bandwidth...

Also, I understand he did an update where he analysed said novels and picked out their good and (mostly) bad points. To be perfectly truthful, Im not sure he really likes them, although they were the starting point for his wonderful writing style.
Read Articulate Jim - its worth every word. I also suggest 'Yahtzee Takes on the World', a webcomic featuring himself and protagonists from his games.
Jesus Christ, Im a godamn advert. SHOOT ME!!!

Hi Jane of Sherwood,
I know that Mr Croshaw a.k.a. Yahtzee has left for sandy shores, to be with his woman, I dont blame him."Women, can't live with em can't ive without em!".
I recently got engaged, my fiance is Canadian. She flatly refuses to come here to Northern Ireland, so I guess I'm moving there. To be honest ever since I got back from Vancouver 2 weeks ago this place has lost it's lustre , and any desire for me to remain has become less so.... However the process of my ethnic cleansing(my subsequent removal) will take some time and her majesty has given me an extended leave of absence for this purpose.
But I digress...
His style of writing is extraordinary, a magician of descriptive transcript ie. "His Kung Fu is Strong".
it would be both a travesty and a tragedy for Mr Ben not to complete the said novels.
I have printed and bound a copy of "Articulate" and intend to read it, but i want to read "energax" and "ripman" first, even though I know there not complete still they are worth the read!
