Shrapnel on DTRPG?

[Daryk]

Since I'm cruising around DriveThru today, I found Shrapnel appears to be missing from their library.  Any idea when Shrapnel will be available through them?

[Adrian Gideon]

No plans for it on that platform that I know of.

[Daryk]

It was pointed out to me via PM that all eight issues are available on DriveThruFiction.  In theory, my existing account should work over there, but I haven't figured it out yet.

[Adrian Gideon]

In theory, yeah. I’m afraid I can’t help you there.

[Daryk]

No worries... I'll figure it out one of these days when I'm working less than 12 hours...

I just added issues 10 and 11, and pinged DriveThru to make all issues findable on DriveThruRPG in addition to DriveThruFiction.  I'll let you know if I hear back from them.

[Daryk]

That was much faster than I expected!  Based on what they said, you may hear from them soon:
