Re: To GZG - Other Settings/Genres

Yeah, this is more of what I meant...  I was curious if GZG has ever
thought
of publishing sumitted suppliments after they review and approve them. 
The
advantages to the writer are GZG's existing rules systems and GZG's
existing
distribution channels and contacts.

God bless,
