We need art and text for Of Beasts and Men. Email your entries in the format used in other threads here to norwood@theriddleofsteel.com. Please include your real name with any submissions, and your computer name if it's different so that I know who you are. Send art at 100dpi attachments in jpeg or similar format.

Payment is like this: 3 submisisons or less: free book
4-7 submissions-2 free copies
8+ free copy and a T-shirt
10 submissions--we'll actually pay you. When you submit that many we'll talk with you privately.

A submission counts as a piece of art that is at least 1/4 page size, or a full monster entry, a page or 2 of "mini" entries. Only accepted submissions are counted towards payment, etc. We will not accept everything, but we are feeling pretty nice. I need this stuff by the end of the week (monsters and characters, that is); art assignments will start going out sometime early next month. I still want to see samples.

Um... What do you mean with "mini" entries?

Quote3 submisisons or less: free book

Do I only have to write one (accepted) submission to get a free book?

Mini entries mean stats but no fiction and only some extra detailed info.

Yeah, that's what it means. One accepted entry gets you a copy of the book, assuming I really like it. More is better.

Hmmm, one can get a t-shirt.
Have you decided on the motive yet?

I wanted to make them for Origins, but I didn't pull it off. I'll have them right after, though.

As for motif...probably the knot with the hand and the sword or something. I've got a few designs.

I think the butler did it, and it was because he was sick of getting up at 4am to make breakfast for the household.

Or did you mean motif? ;-)

Right now I want to rant about besserwissers, lost dictionaries, laziness, about low forms of satire and irony, annoying smileys and stupid questions.
But I'll just say...Yeah, I meant motif.  :-)

What's the status on this project, Jake? Did it close after the one week limit, or are you still accepting submissions?
