He does have an account here, but it uses the same defunct e-mail address.

The html page was created in Word. If you view the source and search for 'author' you can find out his name. A note of caution: the author property isn't foolproof. Editing someone else's Word document doesn't necessarily change the author value.
Another note of caution: Only one person should try to contact him. He might find it creepy if he gets messages from lots of people about something from so long ago.

You're very welcome! :)

Yeah that's the name on one of his stories at the (

And yeah, probably not a good idea to mass message him. That happened a few years ago here with some TTLG'er people were worried about (I think she's an FM author, but don't recall who), and it was a disaster, backfired like crazy. She was extremely creeped out despite the good intentions

Azaran, you're the coolest necromancer to ever die in a spire, hands down.

Wow! Thank you so much Azaran! This community owes you a debt of gratitude!

Thank you very much, Azaran - added to the Essential Reading sticky.

This is awesome - thanks Azaran! I wish I could reach Sneaksie, I'd love to use some of this on The Keeper's Compound to finish out the Library section.

Nope, I'm still around, although I can see where you'd think that. Some of the sections on my site haven't been updated in *cough* years *cough*. Seems like the older I get, the less time I have for anything fun.
I need to play through the games again & take notes, screenshots, etc. but keep putting it off. That's currently the biggest holdup on the Library "books". This PDF might help, though, at least on the notes part.

Hello friends, the download link isn't working anymore - could someone perhaps upload the pdf file for me?
Edit: Oh, it has been 20 years now. Wondering what Sneaksie Thiefsie is doing these days.

"Unfortunately, this will be the last update to the News page. Due
to the pressures of work I am now unable to spare the time to
do any more work on the Thief universe. I am laying down my
pen with great regret, but hopefully what I've already done will
be enough for those interested in learning about Thief.
As a bonus leaving gift, I've uploaded to the website many odds and
ends - works that I never completed, or never even got beyond the
first few paragraphs. There is also some resources that might interest
people - a list of the nobility in the City, and the beginnings of a
comprehensive encyclopaedia I was writing. Enjoy!
I'd like to thank all those who wrote and praised my Theses, Treatises
and stories over these past few years, and those who offered suggestions
or advice that was very welcome. It's been great writing for you.
