Hey Cp, nice job on the "Progressive Documentation of Everything".

A minor correction, Dr. Randle had a dog, not a cat, named Rusty (see pg.85, UK hardback); and under "Greece Trip" you've listed Paul and Jane's cat as Rusty, which should actually be Dusty (see pg.41, UK hardback). Confused yet?

And you will also want to include "Stories for a Phone Book" which make a brief appearance as part of Eric's "first" encounter with the Ludovician (see pg.58, UK hardback).

Changes made. Thank you for keeping an eye out. If anyone else spies anything else incorrect, please let me know.

I don't know how I totally forgot Stories for a phone Book, though. I'll be sure to add that in right away. I don't think I'll type up all the names, though, since it would be kind of tedious both to do, and to scroll past every time, and because the names are basically half of the story anyway. I'll maybe just include links to the pictures or the PDF in place of a characters list.

I know you've already included links to the Myspace pages, but you might also want to consider a separate "website" section listing the various promotional sites and those sites that were part of the game, such as lostenvelope.com and the videos (possibly with a spoiler disclaimer for those who still want to play).

Cp,

I was just going through your Documentation of Everything and noticed the Conceptual Fish Text segment is still a work in progress. Apologies if this has been mentioned somewhere on here before (I would imagine it has but I couldn't find it), but I just noticed something last night and thought I would bring it up to help contribute:

When the Ludovician first attacks Eric in his living room (pg 58), the first image we see of the shark is through the TV. This is the portion where all the "Storr" names appear, but the words at the far left of the bottom few lines (in bold) read: "___ged and whined and mechanically coughed up printed pages from my ___." When I first read the book I thought nothing of this, I figured it was all just jumbled nonsense words to help form the image of the shark. Even after I finished the story and had a much better understanding of what was going on, this didn't stick out to me. It wasn't until I was discussing the story with my girlfriend that I returned to page 58 and noticed that the bold text almost mirrors text from page 320:

"I sat cross-legged on the deck next to the printer, watching it chug and whine and mechanically cough up pages from my story..."

So Steven obviously knew what he was doing when he threw those words into the first image of the Ludovician.

Again, sorry if this has been brought up before, I just got excited that I was able to make a quirkly little discovery on my own... :)
