Though you really would have no reason to look at this stuff unless you are trying to learn how to use Revit Architecture.
Update to my original post. I am now going to be an "official" published author. The author of this book contacted me this week to be a contributor and help him complete this book.

http://www.paulaubin.com/mastering_r...cture_2010.php

It already has a publishing agreement. I signed a contract stating I WILL be credited in the preface and the sections I write.

Perhaps not the most exciting to those outside the world of Architectural software but it IS a big thing for me. Especially since the author came looking for ME to be a contributor.

Re: Heroscapers that are published authors

A local publisher just published my wife’s first book. Technically she is not a Heroscaper but I do have a photography credit in the book. And my daughter did most of the artwork in the book.

My wife has a monthly travel column in a local magazine and she made a book out of alot the different places we have gone with the kids.

Feel free to purchase it on Amazon. (shameless plug)

These actually just came back from the printer...I have a copy in my hand...That is such a bizarre feeling. Kudos to anyone else who has had the patience to endure the process.

Re: Heroscapers that are published authors

Here are some links to my creative nonfiction publication and a review of my fiction publication that should also give you an indication of where to find it if you're truly interested.
Cool idea for a thread. Huzzah.

C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Heroscapers that are published authors

Nice idea for a thread! +rep. I am working on publishing my first short story, but I don't know where to send it just yet. And it still needs a little work.

Re: Heroscapers that are published authors

My uncle is soon to publish a book, but he isn't a Heroscaper so I guess it wouldn't go on the list.

Re: Heroscapers that are published authors

I had a pair of young adult educational books published in the early 2000s and I've worked as a journalist for the last five years.

I'll have to go back and hunt down my fiction publications.

2011 most played: 1. Heroscape/Monsterpocalypse/Quarriors. 4. Warhammer Invasion. 5. Last Night on Earth.

Re: Heroscapers that are published authors

I was a freelance PC game reviewer for PC Gamer from 10/06 - 7/08, for what it's worth. It got to be a pain in the butt and was affecting my enjoyment of videogaming in general so I'm glad I walked away when I did. Wasn't as cool as one might think it could be.

Notable games reviewed in the magazine included: Overlord, Tomb Raider Anniversary, Pirates of the Burning Seas.

I also wrote several reviews and articles for GamesRadar (which is also a Future, Inc. subsidiary), including a Strategy piece on Supreme Commander and reviews of Wolves of the Pacific, IL-2 Sturmovik 1946, and Savage 2, to name a few notables.

Re: Heroscapers that are published authors

I was wondering if anyone could give tips for publishing work. I am currently finishing up a short story that I think is pretty solid and I think I could get it published somewhere, but I don't know where to start. If at all possible, I'd like to get paid for it (do people even still pay for short stories?), but in the end it's just an attempt for an aspiring writer to lengthen his portfolio.
