This is first draft, so feel free to pick it apart. I haven’t timed it yet, but I’m aiming for short and sweet. And no, I don’t know if that joke in the first paragraph really works, but what the hell. It’s the sort of joke I’d make in real life, and to thine own self be true.
The Kickstarter will go live on April 1st, by the way. The video is the last thing I need to do before submitting this project for review.
Continue reading Feedback requested: Kickstarter pitch video script.Casting the Runes (GUMSHOE roleplaying in the world of MR James ghost stories) is tempting. Oh, so tempting. Unfortunately, my budget these days has one line item on it: book expenses. Art and editing ain’t cheap*. But check out the below anyway!

*Speaking of which: Patreon!
Vaesen is from the same guy who did Tales From The Loop. Nordic Gothic horror roleplaying. Looks real fun, in that horror RPG kind of way.
Check it out. No, really. This is possible how they’re going to do new GURPS printings from now on. Which I have gotten resigned to; maybe they’ll print more GURPS stuff this way.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: The Sword Interval is a great webcomic. If you haven’t signed up for the Kickstarter for Volume 2, think about doing so.
This Volume 2 Kickstarter is for Ben Fleuter’s excellent magical apocalypse webcomic The Sword Interval, which I can’t recommend enough (and is fortunately/unfortunately* starting to look like it’s coming to a climax). I have Volume 1, and have eagerly backed this one, too. It’s well worth your time.

*Well, you know. When a story’s over, it’s over, right? Leave the shambling undead on the screen or page, not in your creative flow.
Come, I will conceal nothing from you: I don’t red Ryk E. Spoor. But I’ve heard his name, and he’s definitely one of the guys that my regular readers might read, so check out his Shadows of Hyperion Kickstarter. Old-school Sci-Fi, from the looks of it, and needs that final burst in the last week. So take a look.
Ben Fleuter’s The Sword Interval is one of the webcomics I take regularly: it’s extremely good horror-magical-apocalyptic comic, with excellent world-building and (alas) a plot that seems to be approaching its crescendo. I backed the Kickstarter for the first volume, and I jumped to back this one, too:
So check it out. Heck, get on the Patreon. I did.
I can vouch for them. One of them is the kid of a friend of mine, and God but kids grow up quick. Check out Summer Knights.
I’m probably not going to ArcadeCon — I’m going to WashingCon in September, and ArcadeCon 2019 is in Dayton, OH (also, the November 8-10 date is around my anniversary) — but moelane.com is sponsoring a table for the con*, so check it out anyway. I figure that it can’t hurt, right?

*It’s a $25-level pledge. I assume that they’ll print out the name and URL of the site, and maybe a picture of the logo if I send them the link. But what the heck: I can afford to pump a little energy into the system.
