Issue 2 of the Paragon Standard is now is newsstands.

We hope you enjoy.

((The print archive can be found here . We are now taking submissions for issue 3, the deadline is saturday to inform me of the outline of your piece, and sunday at 10pm for the finished article. Outlines should consist of a vague subject and estimated length in paragraphs, and both outlines and articles should be submitted to ggnewspaper@yahoo.co.uk. Questions are also wanted for our agony aunt, Madame Celinda, and should be sent to the same address. Due to time constraints (aka a lot of traveling at the weekend) there may be a small delay in the release of the paper unless a co-editor would like to step forward.))

It just gets better!

Oh why am I always interrupted from gaming at 7pm? How I long to meet the infamous crowd at GG

I did mean to write something for this week's paper... and then there was the whole 'not actually logging in until 7pm Sunday' thing.

I'm wondering if you might want to move your deadlines a little to give you time to proofread the articles. I noticed a couple of errors this week.

Interesting article about missing royal artifacts there.

That's the trouble, I did proofread.

Tell me where they are and I'll fix 'em, if they're grammar then I'm horrible for spotting them, J ended up proofing my entire disertation at 5am because I had so many.

Deadline wise...no-one actually sent me outlines, Diurne (who is an absolute star!) had them in before the outline deadline, and the rest appeared with pouting on Sunday afternoon.

Although I really would love to have an idea what's comming by Saturday, preferably earlier, since that way I know how many fillers and what length I need to find from somewhere, so far we've just been lucky.

Hope everyone's enjoying it anyway...

Okay. I'll have another look after my second coffee. One was just a missing word though, IIRC.

Okay, had a quick chat with Reb last night on MSN, and seeing as I can't get any material for the obituaries section, one is wondering about the fesability of adding another cartoon to the newspaper?

Some of you may have already read it at my blog (Click on the link in my signature--go to 'Photos'--click on 'Normality Ltd')

I already have 16 strips there to last, well, 16 weeks, and gives me much more than enough time to start writing some new ones.

Reading it now, looks good. Yep, couple of errors, you want them PMed?
