I'm in "Space Opera" somehow, second to Dave Drake, which is not a bad place to be.

Went through galleys of the PB of Do Unto Others... today.

Corrected stuff from American to Brit for the Brit characters.

So, I am now offering this interesting artifact for commerce.

I'll sign it, and you get to see the marked up version.

In exchange, either:

Show me a receipt for an advance order of Rogue from http://www.unclehugo.com/prod/search.php?authorsearch=williamson&title=Rogue&isbn=&binding=&location=Uncle+Hugo%27s+Only&status=Not+Yet+Received+Only&signed=Both+Signed+%2B+Unsigned&submit=SUBMIT

I prefer that method.

OR

Call dibs here and fight it out for Paypal.  But don't get silly.  It's not worth that much.  Actually, yes, please get silly.

Dear Valued GPal Customer,

As some of our customers have been acutely aware of, GPal has been experiencing difficulties related to Credit Card banks holding of customer funds. These problems exist with funds from transactions prior to March 09, 2011. As a result, GPal suspended credit cards entirely on March 9, 2011, leaving us with only Checking Accounts to fund transactions.

Unfortunately, it appears that these Credit Card holds are not going to be resolved anytime soon, so GPal is taking pro-active action to raise funds to cover the entirety of the hold, fund customer accounts, and provide for future expansion.

Due to the difficulty of raising funds for a payments company in the firearm space, we are enlisting your help in this process. GPal is offering a $10,000 referral fee* to any GPal user who introduces an Investor (VC, Angel, PE firm, etc.) that leads to a deal in excess of $1million. Please send introductions to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with “Investor Introduction” in the Subject.

Please note that GPal is presently fully operational for checking account only transactions. Transactions originated on or after March 09, 2011 should now be processed within our 2-7 business day target.

GPal remains absolutely committed to providing the only pro-rights and non-discriminatory payment service in the world.

Sincerely,

GPal.

Wait, so after you promised to handle firearm and other transactions Paypal wouldn't, you screwed up and ran into problems. You never got properly licensed in 49 other states to do money transfers.  You had trouble making payouts to customers, tried to blame this on our banks, and now on "Credit Card banks," not doing transfers in a timely fashion (All of them?!?).  There are customers reporting they're out hundreds or thousands of dollars.  Credit card processors won't deal with you.  Customers are fleeing left and right.  There are photos of the CEO on calguns.net in fancy cars and planes (someone joked about him being a valet).  Now you want ME to help find operating capital for you?

How about I introduce you to some Nigerians?

PS:  If I could arrange for a mil in capital, why would I want to give it you for a 1%, one time stake, when I could invest in my own development?

You get points for determination, though.  You're determined to make this work no matter how much of other people's money you need, it seems.

http://press.discovery.com/uk/dsc/programs/sci-fi-season/ UK fans can catch my props, weapons and military/preparedness advice(what they took), my location scouting, and my daughter's lead acting (and my son as an extra), in this show, May 20th.  US release to follow soon.

Morrigan is the girl in the red shirt in the promo shots.  http://www.MorriganSanders.com

Film location was Muscatatuck Urban Training Center, where my wife was a plankowner.  One of the neat things about the place is that you can destroy almost anything on site as long as you pay to repair it.

I provided uniforms, helmets, armor, gear, 100 weapons from old double barrel shotguns and a sporterized MAS 36, all the way to AKs and M4s (though they didn't use even close to all of them).  I was on set as armorer and military adviser, and my daughter is the girl with the alien artifact.  Eric is in several scenes as a casualty/victim/fleeing child, etc.
