Hey - loving fog juice Yahtzee, fantastic stuff - just thought I should mention that chapter 14 seems to have disappeared since I last read it. I was checking if chapter 15 had materialized and it hadn't so i decided to re-read 14 instead....

....and I was thus greeted with an entirely blank page. I checked the HTML source which was



<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>



even AFTER clearing my browser's web cache.

Oh yeah - Hi, i'm new - etc etc..

Am I the only one who can see clear as day that Yhatzee has just taken Dan Browns "The Da vinci code" and changed the title and and all of the content, then put his name on the cover and handed it over to us?

It's back up now. FTP bugger ups on my end.

My friends and I thought the story was hilarious. I love the ridiculous yet intellectual humor that runs rampant throughout the novel, like the absurd cake flavors, and Inept Richard's cause of death. Great stuff.

BTW, Yahtzee, are you ever going to combine all the chapters into one document, like Articulate Jim?

Ben, my hat is taken off to you.

Not only have you kept me entertained for years but your latest story was fantastic, and as soon as I get myself a credit card. I am donating a good $10 Australian (I'd give more, but my being a out of work student limits me..well that and general stingyness.). Although it's not much, hope it tells ya that we really do enjoy ya work mate. Good luck with getting your Fog Juice getting that award or whatever it's going for and all that.

Cheers, Tek

Fantastic ending Mr Croshaw.

I'm sad it's over - I've been looking forward to Fog Juice updates every day since it started.

Not sure if you'd be interested, but there are online companies who will publish your books to order.. http://www.lulu.com/uk is an example.

I'd definately be up for ordering a physical copy if it was available -
I'd love to buy copies for my friends as well.

Anyway -
Massive thanks for writing such an imaginative, entertaining, enthralling read that I would have no-doubt read it from start to finish in one sitting given half a chance.

Fucking brilliant


p.s. Articulate Jim was damn good too.

That's 2546.35 words per day average, stats geeks. Well done mate, well done indeed. I'm would have taken part myself if I'd had more than a few seconds notice, but I'm definatly taking part next year. And once again, well done.

Even on such a tight schedual, you managed to cut it even finer, and still make a brilliant novel. Well done.

I can think of two things to which you might have been aluding. Both of them are pretty straightforward.
