Hey there, I am extremely pleased to know that a second printing of this amazing fic is happening! I missed out on the first printing due to barley missing the sign ups, but I am very happy to hear that this is happening. I am also happy to hear that prices and shipping prices will be cheaper due to there only two books opposed to five. Also, as of now, do you have an estimate of when sign ups will begin for the second printing?

I wont post the link onto the forums cos that would be advertising something outside of FoE. But if you like I can send you the link to the person who makes these.

Right now we don't have an estimate on when signups will open. We're still working on getting our ducks in a row.

There's nothing preventing us from opening up signups today. But we want to make sure everything runs smoothly by having most everything organized before we start taking names.

Well, I'm super excited!

I get that the two book switch has been somewhat controversial but, personally, I'm ok with this. Living in England and being a student money's obviously quite tight so anything to lower the costs is great for me and I'm sure for other people who aren't in a position to fork out £70+ (as was the price with the original print).

Quick question, is the cover going to be similar to the green plain one as before?

Also, just my two cents, I'd really like the chapter title pictures from before. I know they don't look as professional but they add to the atmosphere and the juxtaposition between what pictures in books usually are (all happy and fun, especially in kids books) and the actual content of the pictures is a fun little mirror to the MLP vs Fallout dichotomy.

Although the books will be cheaper, international shipping is still super expensive regardless.

Yes, we are working on redoing the stamping for the volume numbers, and we plan on making the spine text larger so it proportionally looks better. The primary stamp on the front will most likely stay the same.
The cloth will still be the same green as before.

Thanks for your input. We still haven't come to a conclusion on whether or not to include the artwork.

I do hope that you include the artwork, as they add to the story. Just my 2 cents worth... but I like them...

The signups will be open long enough to give everyone an ample amount of time to sign up.
