Bluebeard's Bride

Buy this game. Buy it right now. It is a work of art. It is complete, perfect beauty. When I teach children what RPG design can be about (this is my day job, amazingly), this is the kind of thing I point to. This is what it looks like when you consider every element of your game both individually and holistically. This is what it looks like when you pare it down to the bare essentials, so everything communicates theme and message in volumes. It can be a difficult game, emotionally and practically. But it is beautiful. Buy it.

Writing With Style: An Editor's Advice for RPG Writers

Buy this. Read it. Read it again.

Ray Vallese has written the TTRPG equivalent of Strunk & White's "The Elements of Style" or Truby's "The Anatomy of Story." It is a book I never expected to see, and one that I am incredibly glad now exists.

As the Managing Editor of a 3rd party publisher, this text hits close to home. I have already sent it to my Lead Writer, and it will be required reading for all of our contractors. It is plain, simple, and forthright. But most of all it is applicable to our work where so many texts of this sort aren't.

So buy this book. Keep it close. Revisit it often. You will become a stronger writer as a consequence.
