Re: [piecepack] Shameless Plug



Congratulations, Mike.  Tapestry looks awesome, and I've had my eye on
it for a while, but I'm probably going to have to wait a couple of
months until I write my next Game Systems article, because I'm in the
middle of writing a book. Nevertheless, knowing you, the Tapestry
games will be great fun.

Maybe Mesomorph Games can hold a second "ludic synergy" competition,
but this time melding the piecepack exclusively with Tapestry.

Cheers,

Ron

p.s. Shameless plug of my own: my book is called _Mental Performance
Hacks: Tips and Tricks for Becoming a Better Thinker_ and is due out
in early December from O'Reilly.  It's a sequel to O'Reilly's _Mind
Hacks_.
