(Doesn't "spokken" sound particularly METAL?) In response to my poll, the clear leader for "work during my break" is refining the S7S handout, to enable gamma playtests. So mote it be. Tomorrow night, or over the weekend, I'll start redrafting it. Once I have something in hand, I'll populate to my local groups, test, and revise. Only then will I propagate out to the S7S list. (Skyship combat needs a mighty testing!) Since we're on the topic of S7S, let me reveal some DEEP, DARK concerns I have about the manuscript... ( non-gamers can skip )So, those are the deep and disturbing issues I'm feeling re: S7S. Tags: asmp, evilhat, game design, gaming, s7s, work journal, writing

With the completion of my initial work on the Small Favor matrix and some freelance editing, I am taking a short break. Of course, for me, "break" means I only work on one project, because I iz insaneymans. But which. One. Spock? Which. One? Poll #1180446 "Break"
Open to: All, results viewable to: AllWhich "for-fun" project should I work on during my "break"? Lemme know, f-list. Taking you advice until tomorrow evening. But for tonight: comicable books and wine, oh yes. Latah! Tags: asmp, dresden, evilhat, fiction-and-poetry, game design, gaming, s7s, sekrit projekt, sf&f, work journal, writing, zoz

Summary: Much improved. I'm about 75% done with DFRPG work ( Samll Favor matrix). There are some other mini-projects I can/should do when that's done, before revising the "Goes Bump" and "Who's Who" (and possibly "Harry's World") chapters. But I am definitely taking a short break from Dresdania when the SmF matrix is done. I'm about 2.5 fairy tales away from having a collection of ZoZ-based stories. I hope to publish them myself, which is a situation rife with possibilities for failure. Self-pubbed fiction (unlike comics or RPGs) is definitely the bastard child of publishing. QUICK QUESTION: Would you buy such a thing> Inquiring minds, and all. The novel is on hiatus; I don't have the brain-cycles to apply to it. S7S is also somewhat on hiatus. I need to update the gamma handout and run at least two more local sessions, before I can push out changes to playtesters. I don't see the possibility of meeting up for a local game before mid-May, tho. Influenced by ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) maliszew's discussion of old-school D&D, I have been pondering a new game system. A fusion of PDQ and OD&D. It hasn't fully coalesced in my skullmeats yet, so I cannot say more. Socially... I need to see my friends more. I need to spend time with my girlfriends. I need to somehow break the chains that connect me to this keyboard. Send money. Tags: asmp, dresden, game design, gaming, s7s, writing, zoz

Yesterday, I and taschoene ran up to Silver Spring to Chez Hicks, where we met drivingblind, debela, and rob_donoghue, so I could run the first local S7S "gamma" playtest. Short form: It went really well. ( more details on game design and session details behind cut )Glorious! Tags: asmp, evilhat, game design, gaming, pdq, s7s, work journal, writing
