...You must do what you feel is right, of course. <br /><br />(I'd suggest sticking with the 32 page RPG rulebook, and maybe adding on a 32 page sourcebook of extras though, if you want advice. Go ahead and make a single 64 page book offer after both are done if you want, too.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-10785522412180838922010-08-05T19:03:14.369-05:002010-08-05T19:03:14.369-05:00As far as I am concerned, 32 pages is a soft limit...As far as I am concerned, 32 pages is a soft limit, I could certainly live with 48 pages, but I think that is the upper limit, 64 pages is too much. The idea is I should be able to print it on my home printer and bind it with a single staple in the upper left hand corner. If you plan on doing two books, make the second one an adventure.Chris Stoddardhttp://blog.carnifex.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-76125845626726420032010-08-05T18:17:57.203-05:002010-08-05T18:17:57.203-05:00Jeff's Stupid Rules and Jeff's Stupid Grim...Jeff's Stupid Rules and Jeff's Stupid Grimoire, separate digest-sized books.

With a tight (but still nice) layout, that's between 15,000 and 20,000 words. Given that good game-writing is 4x the density of typical industry stuff, that's up to 80,000 words equivalent in terms of what people are used to ... (and I think you're up to that standard easily if you decide to be).<br /><br />One of these days I want to do my own basic stompy rules, but that's about ... oh, fifteen projects down on the wishlist, so anytime in the next decade I need you to do it for me, because nobody out there's come close yet and you, Obi-Wan, are my only hope :)<br /><br /><br /><br />So if you need a project editor ...S.
