The question really is, do you have a 'viable product' that can be published at an acceptable standard, and a cost that the market will bear?You can outsource rewriting, editing, development, etc. to others. It's all a matter of how much you wish to be involved and how much control you are happy to give away. Just on board here we have numerous publishers of varying expertise, all of whom have varying degrees of success, and outside of the forum you have Goodman Games (who may or may not do 1E/2E/3E work anymore) and Frog God Games who are eminently capable for bringing product to market.I, for one, would love to see Planes of Existence and City of the Revenant become commercially available products. The question remains, is it financially viable for them to do so?

That s the sad life of non-US collectors... Heck. I can make you an extra copy when I go to Kinkos tonight. I'll charge you the cost of printing and the postage. I'll probably make 20 copies total, plus the "0" copy for William which will have original notes bound in it. If you really want it. Just make sure to let me know before Wednesday so I don't give it to someone else.
