Spirit of the Season = 2007 ENnie Nominee
Spirit of the Season, the SotC-slash-T&J supplement Fred and I (and Daniel) created this past year, is a nominee for Best Supplement! Woot!

http://www.ennieawards.com/08/2008noms-3.html

Inspired by this nomination, [info]drivingblind made an offer in this post:

Spirit of the Season - Extended Free Preview

We originally gave away a smaller version of Spirit of the Season -- minus the extra spellcasting rules, villains, and Chanukah allies -- last Christmas, as a gift to everyone.

We're doing it again, this time in support of SOTS's Ennie Nomination for Best Supplement!

You can download the "half-sized" PDF absolutely free at:

[sots] Spirit of the Season review up at RPGnet

Vitamin U! It makes all things... shmoo?
Daniel Perez says nice things about me:

Also, last night, I wrote a new Zorcerer of Zo-related fairytale, as a birthday present for one of my girlfriends.

Given her response, I may do this for everybody's birthday this year.

Two benefits to this:
1. People get a personalized piece of prose art for their natal day.
2. I get another story for my eventual Tales of Zo collection (which I really want to finish before Xmas 2008 for pub in 2009).


EDITED TO ADD:

This is awesome on stilts:

[t&j] Gedankenexperiment
[info]brianrogers has posted an interesting idea in his LJ: Supers Thought Experiment - Does System Matter?.

Unfortunately, I'm pressed for time at the moment (working on three projects -- Spirit of the Season upgrade, The Dresden Files RPG, and Swashbucklers of the 7 Skies), but I should be able to comment on someone else's version.

Check it out!

Evil Hat Convocation Roundtable Podcast
Speaking of the Evil Hat Summit this past weekend...

(yoinked from [info]drivingblind)
Quoth Fred:
[1hr 11min 33sec] This past Saturday, we got all of the Dresden Files RPG team -- and then some -- together in Maryland for an Evil Hat convocation (first of its kind). Once we were done discussing all company matters, we gathered in Fred's living room for a roundtable discussion about how the day went and whatever else happened to come up. Along the way we talk about some of the development of the Dresden Files RPG, other upcoming games, independent publishing, MUSHing and Amber, how exactly Chad Underkoffler does what he does, and being honest about what it is you're best for in a collaborative organization -- among other things.

If you've ever wondered what's going on "under the Hat", here's your first peek. Have a listen.

Awesomeness
This past weekend (on Sabaday) was the Evil Hat Summit, where many were met, and deep plans arranged. (Apparently, a podcast happened; will apprise you all when it goes live.)

We also played En Garde (Slugfest Games) -- I need to glean a copy! -- and Shadows Over Camelot (Days of Wonder): both were awesome.

Sumday, I basically slpet, watching Nature, Nova, and Ratatouille (and the DVD extras).

Tonights, I have revised one of the Dresden Files RPG chapters I am "lead" on and also edited/revised parts of the upcoming for-pay version of Spirit of the Season.

And now, I check my emails and make dinner, then I watch Countdown.

DC Metro folks: VOTE TOMORROW!!!

[asmp-evilhat] Coming in December
(quoted from [info]drivingblind)

It’s the Most Wonderful Time Of The Year... For EVIL!

The miserly villain Doctor Scrooge hides behind legal technicalities as he steals from the pockets of the impoverished... explorer-gone-mad Jacques Frost preys upon the peoples of the north with his resurrected prehistoric murder monsters... the immortal Baroness Blackheart quests for the Elixir of Life, threatening to destroy all foundations of happiness for mankind...

... and it’s up to Nick Saint -— Codename: Secret Santa! -— his Reindeer Men, and you to save the holidays from their vile clutches!

Spirit of the Season is a holiday treat from the minds of Evil Hat Productions and Atomic Sock Monkey Press. Featuring characters and new rules compatible with both Spirit of the Century and Truth & Justice, Spirit of the Season is your ticket to two-fisted holiday pulp adventure!
