Okay, both Flint and I have been buried, and the website hasn't updated in a while, so here's what has been happening:

• Lots of action going on with Buck Rogers.  Film, cartoon, comic book, game are all moving forward. 
  
• I was in Romania for a month on an, as yet, unannounced project for Ubisoft.  Flint and I are writing the game, and working with the development team on the high-level design.  We'll report more once we are able. 
  
• The book continues to do very well, remaining top in its category on Amazon.  We will have an announcement soon on a potential follow-up. 
  
• New games are in the works... all in the beginning stages of development. 
  
• We are writing another film for Vin.  This one is very near and dear to Flint's heart...
  

Finally, hope everyone has the very best of holidays and prosperous new year.
