I invite you to join the discussion at
http://www.themudjournal.com,
and to consider contributing articles or reviews to the magazine. I've
found in the past that this is one of the best ways to let other players
know about your game and to invite them to join in the fun. If you're
interested in contributing to The MUD Journal, please drop me a line at sanvean@armageddon.org
Thanks, and happy gaming!
