    Dig around in Grendelwulf's blog @ http://grendelwulf.blogspot.com/ too (it looks like another blog @ Axe & Hammer is now closed).

  2. Thanks, Allan! I didn't find it on his current blog, but thankfully the Internet Archive still has a snapshot of the Axe & Hammer blog, which has a link to mediafire for a downloadable version of the Swords & Sorcery article. I'll revise this post in a bit with details.
