Another successful campaign draws to a close. Thank you, everyone! So what's next? Well, both The Beast of Thornbriar Hills and Path to Thornbriar are written and either entering or almost all the way through layout. We'll be ready to go to press as... (Read More)

68 — Less than the Spartans at Thermopylae, but more than the ronin who fought for justice

June 10th - via: kickstarter.com
As I write this, we have just gotten our 68th backer, and there is still a bit more than 24 hours left in the campaign. I treat this as significant because our last campaign got 68 backers, so this means that we will probably have slightly more... (Read More)

To which we say: Woot!

June 7th - via: kickstarter.com
Thank you to everyone — and especially to the backer who put us over the top this morning! For this relief, much thanks. Now we can focus on what all of us find most interesting: the work. Last night, I promised you a foretaste of Places by the... (Read More)

Thornbriar Hills: Up and down and dead ahead

June 7th - via: kickstarter.com
By this time next week, this campaign will be in the books, one way or another.  As I write, we're just $11 from funding; I was kind of hoping we'd fund today, but no one threw down. We're close enough so that the usual rush to get in the doors... (Read More)

Progress!

June 3rd - via: kickstarter.com
More or less as promised, I sent off The Beast of Thornbriar Hills to layout on Saturday, and I spent Sunday fussing over the Backerkit survey. I still have to work up a sketch of the map and check with our cover artist to see how she's coming along,... (Read More)

The Road to Thornbriar

May 30th - via: kickstarter.com
I think I've already admitted that writing The Beast of Thornbriar Hills has taken a little longer than planned. But the good news is that it's almost ready for layout — I finished the first pass last night; I started applying the polish today; and... (Read More)

Halfway home!

May 27th - via: kickstarter.com
 It seems a little odd to be talking fantasy roleplaying on a day dedicated to remembering the soldiers who fought in the American Civil War, but holiday weekends are inevitably bent to whatever purpose we want to give them. I hope you've all had a... (Read More)

The 10k mark

May 22nd - via: kickstarter.com
The manuscript for The Beast of Thornbriar Hills just cleared the 10,000 word mark, and there are still several sections that I need to flesh out. Expect the manuscript to top out at about 14,000 words — a little on the long end for Places by the... (Read More)

Kickstarter weekends

May 19th - via: kickstarter.com
I've seen it asserted with some authority that Kickstarter traffic goes up on the weekends. But my experience in running campaigns suggests the opposite: Unless Google Analytics is flat-out lying to me, I actually tend to get less traffic on weekends... (Read More)

That which cannot be offered as a Kickstarter reward

May 15th - via: kickstarter.com
Since we're now halfway through the month of May, I just wanted to let you know that Dungeon Masters Guild has most of the Forgotten Realms versions of Places by the Way (the most recent one excepted, for some reason) on sale for 15% off until the... (Read More)

Halfway home!

May 13th - via: kickstarter.com
The first 24 hours of a campaign are always fun. You get to see the pledges coming in, and it's like greeting guests arriving for a party. For me, it's always warm and fuzzy to see a mix of old friends and new friends. Welcome all, and thank you for... (Read More)
