Discussions about the various aspects of making both physical and electronic Table Top RPG products. We talk with artists, writers, editors and game designers about their process, what they do, and how to hire them. We also look at the details of making your products available to your audience, including a look at printing your own products, how to publish on DriveThru RPG, as well as running a KickStarter.
Along the way we will ramble about other things of interest or hot topics.

E120. “Tome of Adventure Design” - Journey into Adventure Writing
Welcome RPG Ramblings with Jeff Jones. This is a weekly show exploring the various details of the TableTop RPG hobby through discussions with interesting people.
Except this week I don’t have any guests. I planned to connect with two people this week, but my vacation threw off my groove more than I anticipated.
Friday, the day before I normally drop an episode, I was empty-handed, having failed the most basic task of scheduling a guest. Then the idea hit me. Why not have episodes on adventure creation sprinkled in with my regular episodes? Just to be clear, I have very little experience in writing adventures. By little I mean, I wrote one. Saying it was mediocre is being generous. But I will not let ignorance impede my hubris. It is not enough to write an adventure, it must be worthy of publishing. That is the goal of this series, to come up with an idea and see it all the way through the process.
But, I will not do it alone. I will get help from guests and from you, the listeners, because when it comes to adventure writing, I only have questions.
I have no idea the direction this series will take, it is as much of a mystery for me as it is for you.
Don’t worry folks, this is not supplanting the normal RPG Ramblings podcasts…..I will be jumping back and forth.
It is seven thirty, Saturday morning. Adventure awaits. Sisters and Brothers, it is time to get rambling.

Today Gary joins me. I don’t know his last name but most people know him by his moniker, “Ardwulf” and his YouTube channel, Ardwulf’s Lair. This episode falls in a normal pattern of ramble but don’t worry, we take time for some deep cuts.

I hear the sound of approaching tanks. Sisters and Brothers, it is time to get rambling.
