Sarah - let me add, we have absolutely no interest in vetting every update to your website once you've put up the FPP link. Just don't do something silly like sell unauthorized Gloranthan publications from your site or allow downloads of bootleg Gloranthan publications (however, you can certainly encourage people to buy publications from DrivethruRPG).

Your website sounds like a blast and I encourage you to add a couple of Glorantha related pages to the site. Just send Issaries an email letting them know and add that link to the FPP (and acknowledging that you accept its terms). And that is that. Easy as pie.
