Yesterday the new quarterly newsletter went up. There probably isn't any news in there that hasn't already been posted somewhere else this issue. It's more of a centralization of all the info on current projects and a look back at what's come out so far in 2006, since it is both the first and last issue of the year. In January, there should be some more intersting features added to it. The coolest thing about issue 1 is the fact that it's decorated throughout with concept art sketches of charcters from Metrognomes who appeared in "Music of the Metrognomes" and "Worse than a Gremlin."

MERCHANDISING! ...is all I'll be talking about this entry. Here's the order that new things went on sale today: 1) Night Light mug 2) The Ghost in the Olive Grove ringer T-shirt 3) The Ghost in the Olive Grove black T-shirt 4) Worse than a Gremlin mug. All very Halloweenish.

There have also been some strange things happening with some products. Strange but good. I don't know when it happened, but all of the T-shirts that have been available in black (including the one released today) are now available in "cardinal" as well. Pretty cool. The ringer T-shirts are now available with either black or blue "rings." The Music of the Metrognomes infant creeper is now available in baby blue and pink. Options are good, as has been reflected in sales. I personally don't know what's been selling at the online store, only that we're making a profit. :)

Look for the new quarterly pdf newsletter to be posted on the site on Monday. (There, I guess I didn't talk just about merchandising.)
