Good news. Bad News. (But mostly good.)

We've been very, very busy lately. (That's why it has been so long since our last update of this blog. Sorry!)

But, now that the hubbub is dying down to a dull riot, we've got both the proverbial good news and bad news.

Let's do the bad news first and get it out of the way. One of our favorite authors, Tristan Gans, has decided to leave Belfort & Bastion—at least for the moment. He feels he needs to pursue some new opportunities that have suddenly appeared. We can understand that. We don't have to like it, but we understand it.

So, best of luck, Tristan!

Now, let's do the Good News.

We have two new authors and several new books to talk about.

We'll take them one at a time in the next two postings. But, briefly, we've gained the company of essayist and fabulist Jerry James McMurry, and stock market wizard Richard ("Dick") Arms.

We've also done our first hardcopy book!

So, once again, let's take them one at a time.
