So Grand Secrets is a scenario/background book
concerns this non-supernatural stuff? Its a one-shots book
of non-supernatural adventures?
So I take it then Post Modern Magick will be a Grand Secrets
book telling us who and what the main supernatural
faction are up to?
So will post modern magic have several NEW schools?

I think this is a nice compromise.
Will you have a school of magick or two for each of these books?
Which book will tell us more about archetypes and Godwalkers?
Is the vote over or are you going to see if there are
any other works that people might find tasty in another
round of voting?
I personally think this would help clarify if people were confused
about what Grand Secrets was about - although I know
its a hastle.

PS: Are all these texts to be done "in house" or are any up for submissions
from freelancers - and will this change the speed with which you
can get them published?
