A few months ago when developing ideas for two game story lines I remembered reading something about a series of portals used to smuggle gnomes out of Nehteril. I knew that it had been a web article on WotC. It took me several hours to locate the article in Mintiper's chapbook. It was so usefull that I printed out all of the series. I would LOVE for Eric to do more of the same. I am glad to hear that he will try to suggest it to WotC again. I can hardly wait... |

Having just re-read Part 1: Moonlight's Triumph ... I can see what Eric means by the tons of research needed prior to publishing such a thing. His attention to detail & minutae was absolutely extraordinary.
Kudos to you, Eric. And I echo the other's sentiments as well. I hope you publish more for our selfish entertainment! :) |

thanks for replying Eric, I hope it pans out!  |

The Mintiper Chapbooks were my favorite Web articles of all times, especially the Trail of Mists, where the gnomes finally had some place in the sun. I cant thank you enough for these articles Eric and I would love to see more of them. |

I'd love to see more of those, Eric. It was one of the best web features to grace the Wizards site. |

the knowledge in mchapbook is amazing! ive had many ideas from them. I REALLY REALLY wish there were more like this.not only was i enamoured with the subject but the way it has realmsfolk tell their own history is awesome. |

Wow, that one slipped under my radar. I'll definitely be making my own copy of them. |

I most whole-heartedly agree. I remember the Mintpers Chapbooks series as some of my most favorite web articles I have ever read. I have gone back to them and mined them for ideas on several occasions. I certainly do wish that WotC and Eric would do more such web articles in a similar vein. |

Good thing I printed them all cause now I can't read them at work (something about the page being blocked for some stupid reason)....I will bring those papers to work to read on my break for sure. |
