New Worlds and Dice Tales!

[swan_tower]

The most recent New Worlds post is on sumptuary laws, i.e. the ways in which societies try to regulate the outward signifiers of class and rank.

Looking back at my previous blog series of BVC — Dice Tales is now set to be an ebook! You can currently pre-order it from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Google Play, iTunes, and Kobo; or you can wait for the on-sale date of July 18th and get it from DriveThruRPG or direct from the publisher, Book View Cafe. This is edited and expanded from the original blog series, with more than half a dozen new essays.

And — as a teaser — while it is my first foray into game-related publishing, it may not be my last . . .

Nice!

*sob* I'm out of budget for this month so I will have to wait until July to preorder.

It will still be there when you're ready!

Seriously, I can't wait--I love your game-related musings, but am historically bad at tracking blog posts, so having them in an ebook that I can buy and read in one big schlumpf will be super. :D

Icosahedra FTW!

And that is why the blog-series-to-ebook approach is so useful. I did it with Writing Fight Scenes, too, and I'm going to do it with the Patreon; I'm even wondering if I can dust off some older material and make similar use of it.

I have Writing Fight Scenes and probably should reread it more often. =) I If you ever do the follow-up Writing Space Battles, I WILL THROW MONEY AT YOU. ;)

Hee! I think I would need to know . . . uh, anything about mass combat before I could tackle that. My ignorance of naval, aerial, and large-scale land warfare is almost total.

Nice! I look forward to reading it.
