I have finally decided that I need to get the Compendium published as soon as possible, and have made the decision not to add anything further to it. At present the contents page looks like this:
I had hoped to add a couple more battle reports, but I felt that this would delay publication past my self-imposed deadline of the end of April. I need to add a couple of biographies for some of the contributors, and then I will send the draft off to be proofread. Once any necessary changes have then been made, I will publish the Compendium.
Great!

Loving it
I suppose that your health is much better, isn't it?
Slorm,
DeleteI’m looking forward to publishing the Compendium.
I am waiting for a definite diagnosis, but I am told that I will begin undertaking hormone treatment next week.
All the best,
Bob
I am quite looking forward to the publication of these. I hope you feel a lot better soon.
ReplyDeleteSimon,
DeleteCheers! I hope that once I have a definite diagnosis, I can begin the treatment that I need to get better.
All the best,
Bob
BOB,
ReplyDeleteIt is good for you to go ahead with your Compendium and stick to the Publishing Date desired. Hope you are on the mend and getting better each day. All the Best. KEV.
Kev Robertson (Kev),
DeleteAs I am unsure the impact of any treatment I will need once I have a definite diagnosis, it made sense to get the Compendium published ASAP. I can then concentrate on getting better and actually fighting some wargames!
All the best,
Bob
BOB,
DeleteI hope you will be well enough to continue to model your IRONCLADS - it will be interesting to see them finished and in action. Best Wishes for the EASTER Sunday there in London. Cheers. KEV.
Kev Robertson (Kev),
DeleteWork is still continuing on my ironclads, and I hope to get the Schwarzenberg ones completed over the Easter holiday. Then I will begin work on an ironclad for the Khakistani Navy.
Have a great Easter,
All the best,
Bob
Glad you will manage to make your publication deadline and I hope you get appropriate treatment soon.
ReplyDeleteMartin Rapier,
DeleteThank you for your contribution, which I am sure lots of people will enjoy, as to my treatment … well, I am hoping Tuesday will bring some news on that front.
All the best,
Bob
Looks wonderful Bob
ReplyDeleteBest wishes
Maudlin Jack Tar,
DeleteI’m hoping to publish it as a hardback, softback, and in PDF format.
I hope that you’ll buy a copy.
All the best,
Bob
Yay for PDF! I'm still hoping for a PDF version of the Pike and Shotte and Napleonic books.
DeleteMillsy,
DeleteThe PDF edition is very dependent upon whether or not Lulu.com will play ball with the hardback and softback editions as they use the same publication file. I gave up using them some time ago because of software problems with files produced on my computer, but I’m going to give them another go with the Compendium.
All the best,
Bob
The draft looks fantastic! Tons of great stuff. I hope your treatments can solve the problem, meanwhile take it easy and enjoy some wargames.
ReplyDeleteMark Cordone,
DeleteI’m pleased that you like the draft.
Hopefully I’ll get a diagnosis next week and begin treatment soon afterwards.
All the best,
Bob
Really looking forward to buying this and adding it to the Ducal Library. Excellent work Bob!
ReplyDeleteTradgardmastare,
DeleteHopefully you won’t have to wait too long before you can buy a copy.
All the best,
Bob
Bob,
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
Good news on the Compendium ✔️✔️…and
Good luck with the medical folk.

Martin S.,
DeleteHappy Easter to you and yours.
I hope to have some news about the Compendium and my treatment next week.
All the best,
Bob
Dear Bob, Happy Easter to you and Family. Looking forward to ordering your book. Quinn : )
ReplyDeleteGlory to Ruritania (Quinn),
DeleteMay I wish you and your family a Happy Easter!
All the best,
Bob
Excellent! Will definitely pick up the ebook!
ReplyDeleteHope you and yours are doing well.
Jennifer,
DeleteThanks for your best wishes. I hope that you and yours are fit and well.
I hope that you enjoy reading the book once it is published,
All the best,
Bob
Will be a great addition to the portable wargames portfolio. Looking forward to reading.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your work Bob
Steve
Stephen Smith (Steve),
DeleteCheers! I hope that you enjoy reading your copy when it is published.
All the best,
Bob
Thanks Bob, getting the book published will be a good positive action to get done before treatment, which I hope goes well and is not too onerous. Battle reports could be added in a 2nd edition after the 1st doubtless sells out 😀
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you and Sue!
David in Suffolk,
DeleteWorking on the book has helped me to cope with my medical problems, but as I have no idea what the effects of my treatment will have, I needed to get the book finished and published.
May I wish you and yours a Happy Easter.
All the best,
Bob
I'll definitely ve downloading a PDF if it's available. I may even order a hardback instead for the sake of my ego. It's nice seeing your name in print!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Easter and I hope things go well with your treatments, take care.
Mr. Pavone,
DeleteAs a contributor, you will get a free copy of the Compendium in whatever format you prefer.
May I wish you and yours a Happy Easter. As to my treatment … well, it should start tomorrow in the consultant gives the go ahead.
All the best,
Bob
