Holidays at the Dork Store
CHEZ GEEK (Steve Jackson Games) and ESCAPE FROM ELBA (CheapAss Games) are now available from the Dork Store, for your holiday pleasure. I'm very happy with my work on both of these. I had a ton of fun with them, and I hope it shows.
Also, with the big rush on, packages are literally going out of here on a daily basis. Most shipments are sent via Priority Mail. Any orders I receive up until December 17 should arrive before Christmas.
If you'd like something to be shipped Express Mail, e-mail orders@kovalic.com for prices. According to the post office, overnight packages will even be delivered Christmas Day.
By the way...big thanks to INQUEST Magazine for plugging the SITH PARK T-Shirt in their holiday guide!

Dork Tower in Fantasy Role-Playing Gamer's Bible
I was fortunate enough to be given a prominent role in the second edition of Sean Patrick Fannon's Fantasy Role-Playing Gamer's Bible. I'm a big fan of the first edition, and the new version should be out soon from Obsidian Studios. Look for it in stores everywhere. http://obsidianstudios.com

It's Carson! Yes, Carson beat out Igor by nearly three-to-one. Thanks to everyone who voted. I hope that there'll be both plush Carsons and Plush Igors soon. But it's Carson coming first. Look for him in early 2000.
