I know this has nothing to do with RPGs, but I just published my first rulebook for Reaper Miniatures.  It is a skirmish-level fantasy tabletop miniatures game:

I'm just so excited I had to tell someone, and this is the only forum I frequent outside of Reaper.  :D
I mean c'mon - my picture is on the home page of Reaper Miniatures!

Congrats!

I hope to finish something publishable someday.

I'm signed up for a Reaper Mini event at GC, although it says 1st Ed.

Congratulations! I fondly recall playing the first edition of Warlord with several friends back when it first released; I'll definitely have to check out this new edition!
