The latest freebie is up... the Second Hand Book Shop. Thanks to dsumner and everyone else for the recommendations for this one!

Just downloaded it, and thanks for the shout out. One thing, I noticed a small typo on the into from Scott Bizar. It looks like part a line of text got dropped down to far. I can PM you the exact line if you want.

Thanks for the spot on the typo. I'll try to get that fixed in the next week bit and let Scott know.

I misread section L as containing an endless array of "comic books and food preparation guides" and thought: How unusual?

I'd have to add a pet cat or a pet parrot. Half the used bookstores in my town keep pets. Plus they're kind of dusty.

Unless .... don't tell me that kitty and birdy are in the crates!!!  Huh NOOOOOOOOOO!!  Cry

I'd add several pet cats, as most of the places I've been in have are run by a middle aged woman, with several cats lying about the place.

Same here... but I've seen some that didn't.
And the pets were dusty too!  Grin

By the way, I don't think I ever got around to thanking you for all the nice work you've done on the freebies! The police station is still my favorite, though.

Maybe I'm just being sentimental about the first of the new line of resources. That one's kind of like X-Men 94, when the the X-Men took over the X-Men series. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Thanks! The police station does hold considerable merit for its sheer usefulness... it is indeed a repeat worthy location.

The one I'm working on right now, the flying saucer project, may very well become one of my most favorite. Portions of this project will refer back to/tie in with the Truth Seeker Weekly project.

I'm actually pondering a mini adventure... Abduction. Its primarily tailored for 1 to 2 characters... But then, if one happened to use multiple UFOs.... wicked grin!
(or if the characters got picked up at different times.....)
