That's correct. Ones that clearly came from Kickstarter itself, not an outside link.

Your own circumstances are almost certainly different than mine. When I look at the cost of making a book around like 160 pages with full color art, professional editing and layout, and all the other things to just produce the book itself and then pay for the offset print run and all its...

Really great insights and I agree with a lot of it. For me, the big shift in the complexity of our projects was switching from print on demand to offset printing. POD prices went up, quality went down, and the amount of books we were shipping was high enough to switch to offset printing but it...

Have you shown her Shadowdark? That might fit the style she's aiming for more than A5e which is pretty super-heroic fantasy. Someone else might have already suggested this... sorry. My general feeling is that its ok to describe how you feel about things if you're not having fun but in a...

I don't see anything in the write-up to assume they'll be farming out actual D&D books. It sounds like the attention is on movies, TV shows, and games.

Thanks to all of those who recommended Return of the Lazy Dungeon Master! For those interested, I offer a good-sized free sample of the book here: https://s3.amazonaws.com/slyflourish_content/return_of_the_lazy_dungeon_master_sample.pdf I also have my own guide on how to get started playing...
