I could yes, but with the understanding that it is a completely 100% RP market. Don't expect to buy rares or the such... but things like a Book Store or like Lady Izznet's Tattoo Shop or Bianca's Children's Clothing shop.... gotta be creative!

Well dang the book from the provisioner I bought had 40 pages and I filled them all. *sigh* Didnt know it could only be 20 pages long I suppose I should have read that part.

You must be as wordy as me.

Volumes work well for this situation. You can submit volume I and then donate the other volumes.

I am just happy to see someone submit from Catskills, most of the submissions have been from other shards. And I really love that its bringing those folks here for this event.
