WELCOME TO THE INN
Greetings, friends and fellow companions, and welcome!

I recently attended my 15-year high school reunion with Uncle
Lockspringer this last weekend. It was good to see everyone, and
amazing to see how people have changed and progressed in life. It
was even a bit sad to see one face missing from our number.

There's something about reunions that make you think back on where
you have been and where you're going. It's hard to believe that
I've been working with the Nexus since 2001, that I've been able to
work with Sovereign Press, and that I've had a chance to hobnob with
some of the authors. Above all, it's been great knowing that what
you do brings a little bit of joy to the lives of people.

Here's to friends of old and to new friends that we've all met along
the way.

WHAT'S NEW ON THE NEXUS
The Dragonlance Nexus is sponsoring a Creature Competition on the
message boards. If you're not a member of the boards yet, be sure
to sign up as this competition is going to be fun. The winner will
get the coveted prize of a customized user title on the boards. It
should be a lot of fun, so be sure to create a monster or template
and join in on the festivities.

Also, we've had updates in our fan art, reference, and fan rules
sections, including a group of elven assassins and a minotaur
fighting style. Also, be sure to check out my Dragonlance Index,
filled with info on where to find the feats, classes, and prestige
classes of Dragonlance.

Also, we have another very special project going on too that we'll
be telling you more about in upcoming months. Be on the lookout for
that!

GAMING NEWS
Those awaiting Spectre of Sorrows should not have to wait much
longer. Though a definitive release date has not been set yet, it
is our understanding that Spectre should be out soon. Holy Orders
of the Stars and Legends of the Twins are both in the works as
well.

Be sure to visit the Sovereign Press guys at Origins June 29 – July
3rd!

NOVEL AND AUTHOR NEWS
Love and War has just been re-released, now with a brand new cover.
Also, Amber and Ashes is now out in paperback. Jeff Sampson is also
bringing us another young adult book in the form of Dragon Spell,
Book 8 of the New Adventures series.

COMIC NEWS
Coming in August will be the long-anticipated comic book adaptation
of the Chronicles trilogy, by Devil's Due Publishing. Also, there
should be news coming soon about The Legend of Huma, so keep
watching for that.

UNTIL NEXT TIME
Until next time, my friends, I remain humbly yours…
