NEWS!!:
I got an email today and U.S. Games is going to include the Doggie Tarot in volume 5 of the Encyclopedia of Tarot. Yipeeeee! I see this as a roundabout yes. They want to see what the response will be. If the response is strong enough they will consider publishing the full 78 card deck. I can understand that they just aren't sure right now because their are no decks out there like this and I wouldn't have guessed that the response from all of you would have been as great as it was, but now I know better. If this forum is any indication (and I think it is) then I think the response will happily surprise them.
The first 24 cards that I've done will be included along with a 1500 word write up by me.
So I see this as Fantastic News! If USG decides against the publication in the end, I will still have the publicity from the Encyclopedia of Tarot (in its many languages) to propel me toward whatever means of publication it is destined for. I'm so happy about this and I really have to give all of you a big "THANK YOU!" for all of your encouragement.
