Really like this idea! I like all of the sections, and interviewing one writer is interesting for sure! I also cant wait to read about the old treasures, and I think the screenshot of the month is completely deserved, so congrats tsmoha!

Great idea but the format does need to change. And wow, that really is going back in time. That's one old story. 
And isn't Dominik Nerz everyone's favourite story?

I really like the idea mate, its good to know that the section will be popular judging by the amount of stories that are going or have been going on 
I wish you lots of luck with this idea and hope it gets the support it deserves |

Great work Ian. I have no time to follow stories in last half a year or so, and because of that i appreciate this sort of magazine to sum it up and maybe lure me to some interesting story.
And about design. who cares? Like with many things in life, it is not important how it looks, but what it brings. I think nobody can have a problem with reading two pages in this design. Keep it up mate!

Cool idea Ian, I'll be sure to read the monthly issues. I particularly like the idea of forgotten treasures.

Wow, really nice work there!
Also, Travis crashed really badly? Time to look for a different plot then.

Thanks for the support, guys! I wouldn't be able to do it without!
Yes, there are mistakes in it. But I'm doing this in my own free time, so frankly I don't care. Sorry but that's the truth |

Thanks for the compliment, SSJ2Luigi 
@baia: Don't take it personally, please There are so many stories going on that I'm bound to forget or leave a few out. But don't worry, next month is another edition!
Maybe it's a bit more fun this way, too. If everyone would be in every edition, it would be too easy. Now everyone will be excited for the edition to see if they're in it.
And I also hope to achieve with this that everyone is even more motivated to do their story good, take better screenshots and achieve greater heights! |

Thanks, krisa!
I can already say that I'm already a big part into the next edition, even though it's still a few weeks before I need to release it
Though I might finish the next edition early in 2014. I don't want this to be strict on the date. Can be earlier, can be a little later, hope that's okay.
Already have a great name for the story profile, also have found a great story for Forgotten Treasure |

"Writer's Block is never late. Nor is it early. It arrives precisely when it means to." Actually, regarding real writer's block (not the magazine) that is unfortunately not really the case.

Great initiative, I really don't follow that many stories, so now it will be easier for me to follow some of the things that are going on

Shonak - Thanks a lot, mate I know everything about a real writer's block, too, unfortunately
anderspcm - Glad I can be of help to you that way
So I might try to get the next edition out early January. Already have several pieces written and will be sending questions to the Story Profile guy soon |

Thanks a lot, 547984 and Jakstar! It's great to be appreciated!
The Forgotten Treasure for the next edition is wrapped up and I can say it's an amazing story to look back to. I'm sure some of you will still remember, but it can't hurt to see it again
For the next edition there will have been the 'PCM.Daily' Yearly Awards, so I'm thinking to do a special release, specifically taking a closer look at the story-writing awards, are you up for that or...? Let me know if there is interest in that. |
