flashjazzcat Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) I was delighted to see The Last Word got a mention in Micro Mart's Retro column this week: Not quite my name in print but very welcome publicity!

spookt Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Congratulations, you and TLW deserve it. I sat down a couple of days ago with the draft manual and the latest RC and I was just blown away by all the features. Fantastic piece of work.

TMR Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Did'nt even know they had a retro section, there again i haven't read it for about 12/18 months Retro Mart has been a consistent part of Micro Mart for far longer than that, hell i guested and wrote a review of Loco Bingo well over two years ago for it... the blokey who writes it hangs around here too.

They were openly advertising for articles and columnists a couple of years ago. I fully intended to submit something but it was in the days long before my Atari renaissance and I never got around to it. ...Fantastic piece of work. Many thanks!

Shaun.Bebbington Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Good to be of assistance, and it's great to see that someone actually reads the page to be honest. Almost zero feedback in getting on for nearly seven and a half years has, to put it mildly, not been what I had hoped for when I started writing back in early 2002, but never mind. Life continues, as does Atari :-) Regards, Shaun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life continues, as does Atari :-) Many thanks, Shaun. Haven't checked the site stats lately so not sure if the article prompted a deluge of hits, but this kind of exposure is very welcome and entirely unexpected. The Last Word narrowly missed being featured in the final editions of New Atari User back in 1999... great to see it finally mentioned in print. Rest assured I for one read the Retro column avidly every week. Long may it continue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun knows i read his column (mainly by standing in the local Asda, the rest of the mag just doesn't interest me) and i still want a word about that news item regarding some prototyle Plus/4 code of mine! =-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
