Land of Nod Year-End Report

How did I do in 2010?

Wow! In May of this year, I started blogging. By December, I've written 361 posts, published 6 issues of NOD and a goofy little RPG called PARS FORTUNA. The point - if you want to write and create, do it. To paraphrase Sesame Street - it doesn't matter if it's not good enough for anyone else to sing, just write - write a game.

So, how did the Land of Nod do in 2010 ...

    Check out that swirly sexy Wonder Woman. Congrats on doing so well. Maybe this year you'll get that brand new custom-fit platemail. Next week I'm giving away a snowball cloaking machine.

    Happy Eating.

    Thanks everyone - it was a great year. I hope many more hobby publishers start producing and sharing things they love with the community in 2011 - it's not that hard, assuming you're not trying to make a living at it.
