For those who may not know (and I bet there are a lot of you) Beckett MOG (Massive Online Gamer) is a magazine that comes out once every 2 months and is filled with all sorts of mmo goodies. For issue 15 (which is set to hit stores on the 24th I believe – but if you have a subscription you would have already gotten it) there were some new writers that the blogger community may recognize.
One of which was none other then Tipa, who I am of course always in awe of. You can find her article on the SOE Fan Faire in this issue – so be sure to buy it!
Along with Tipa’s words of wisdom are some articles that I was lucky enough to write for Beckett – including a Veeshan’s Peek dungeon guide, a class guide on EQ2 bards, an exclusive interview about guildhalls, and one on the EQ2 and EQ1 expansions being released. These are my first publications ever and yes, I will admit right now I am shamelessly plugging them and hope readers may even subscribe to Beckett eager for the next issues. Arrogant? No way, I had a LOT of fun writing these, and I’m just a little bit giddy to see my name in print. You’ve got to realize, that I’m a pretty small time person, I don’t consider my site one of the ‘top ones’ out there at all. So this is a huge accomplishment for me and I can only hope that it leads to more writing opportunities.
So what are you waiting for? Go pick up issue #15 of Beckett MOG, and read up on all the goodies in there. A huge thank you to Kasul also for scanning in each one of the pictures for me since my copy here in Canada will be a while getting here. Also in this issue is a FREE EQ2 house item (and one for WAR too, if the EQ2 one doesn’t sway you) limited editions so go go go…
Wow, I almost felt dirty writing that whole post, but I’m honestly too excited to care.
Edit: As a side note that I wanted to mention – it is honestly thanks to every single other blogger out there that I write as much as I do. It’s inspiration from those around me that contributes more then anyone will ever know, so thank you!
Hey, great stuff. And you should NOT apologise for pointing us to other things that you’ve written, especially published work! We’re here because we LIKE what you write, more is always good! ;)
Ack!… I’m guilded with celebrites… Pops the champagne bottle and hobbles over to the servants quarters of the Guild Hall (hehe)
Awesome
Congrats on the piece. I am thoroughly impressed, not only by your fantastic 3d art, but an accomplished writer.
Cheers.
Congratulations on the articles being published! They’re very well written! :)
The house item is super cool too… and for WAR players you can claim a ring that will make you “the envy of your friends and guild.” Go buy it, everyone!
