Shucks, most of all for you.
Maybe, and this is just a suggestion, you should in the future be less of a nice guy and more of an all-in badass publisher? I mean, from the campaigns you've run it's obvious, that a lot of cool people wants to write for LotFP and you're not only fucking publishing, printing and distributing peoples books and creating a buzz about them, your also paying people (good money it seems) and getting cool artwork to go along with it. It kinda pisses me off that people turn stuff in a year+ late - it's disrespectful to the people who funded and preordered, but most of all disrespectful to you, as a publisher, and your business.
And yes, there can of course be all kinds of stuff getting in the way of writing, but when I read that latest LotFP post on Kelvin Greeens blog, it's kinda shocking. "I'd intended to have it completed by Christmas and it's clear that I am not ready for even semi-professional publishing." Well maybe you should have thought, just a little, about that before you signed up for the job! WTF!?!
Sorry if this ended up being rather rant-like, but it annoys me as a customer and it annoys me even more as a person who works professionally with tight deadlines all the time. It's really not THAT hard. To me, it would be perfectly acceptable for you to, by now, take Two Towers outta the hands of Brockie and giving it to someone who can finish the damn thing in a way that you, as the publisher, would be satisfied with.
