Enough Thinking - More Doing - Call for Manuscripts

We all have gone through a tough few days. After thinking and thinking (and thinking some more) the time's come for doing. What am I going to do? I'm going to keep on voting, donating to charity, and working for a more-equitable America. To do this, I'm going to focus more on work than I have been lately.

Lately, I've been focusing on my health. I've lost 30 lbs. this year, I've gained many lbs. of muscle (I'm nearing the strongest I've ever been), and I'm exercising for 80 minutes 3-times a week. I've been kicking the ass of the health baddie, but it's come at a cost regarding my business productivity. I'm gonna have to kick that up a notch while maintaining my health-centered focus. I've got a lot of weight yet to lose, and I'm going to do it, but I need to start kicking more than just my fat butt.

With that in mind, this is just a public announcement that I'm going to be more busy. I'm *always* looking for manuscripts (for Advanced Adventures or 1 on 1 Adventures). If you've a manuscript, I'll take a look.

A series of new 1 on 1 Adventure are coming. Here's the first, The 300th!

I'm happy to say that I've a series of new 1 on 1 Adventures (for Pathfinder) coming out over the next year. Here's the cover for 1-on-1 #17, The 300th! I've got numbers 17-21 in the pipeline... :-)

Call for 1 on 1 Adventure Manuscripts!

Expeditious Retreat Press is looking for authors for three 1 on 1 Adventures for the Pathfinder rpg.
Project Length: 10k-14k words, with target of 12k words.
Pay Rate: $0.01 cent/edited word. Pay on acceptance via PayPal or USD check.
Additional details: I'm looking for three new adventures in our line of 1 on 1 Adventures. We've put out 16, I've one in manuscript form right now, and I'm looking for #'s 18, 19, and 20. 1 on 1 Adventures are for one player and one GM. Any expressing serious interest will be provided examples of published adventures for guidelines in terms of format and style.

1 on 1 Adventures require a different creative hand than standard adventures. For example, any magic that paralyzes is effectively a death sentence when there is only one player (barring the intent to capture, of course.) Prospective authors should take this difference into consideration.

I prefer site-based adventures over plot-based adventures (but any type of good adventure is desired), and am particularly looking for adventures for the more martial classes.

Respond by: I would prefer responses occur prior to May 1, 2015 to josephbrowning@gmail.com with title "Call for 1 on 1 Adventure Manuscripts!" If you're interested, please contact me.
 
Sincerely,
Joseph Browning

Call for Manuscripts

Been a while since I made a general call for manuscripts. I'm looking for OSRIC modules for our Advanced Adventures line and for Pathfinder adventures for our 1-on-1 Adventures line. Both have a word limit of 12k (can be bumped up to 16k if necessary) and pay $0.01 per word upon acceptance of the manuscript. OSRIC is for a full-sized OSR group (6-10 players) while 1-on-1 is for only a single player and a GM.

If you've never published anything before, don't worry, I honestly believe every long-term GM has at least one good publishable adventure within them and I'm glad to help bring them to the public. Our hobby should be a shared hobby.

If you want to pitch me an idea, email me at josephbrowning@gmail.com.

Two New Print Adventures for Sale!

We've just got our copies of Advanced Adventures #31: The Lost Lair of Drecallis and 1 on 1 Adventures #16: The Lost City of Bransik up for sale at the XRP website. It's been a while since we've put out an old-school mod ('bout 6 months or so) and even longer for a Pathfinder mod ('bout two years, sheesh!) and we're glad to have new stuff up.

Here's the blurbs....

Advanced Adventures #31: The Lost Lair of Drecallis is an OSRIC(tm) module designed for 4-8 adventurers of levels 4-7. For a second year in a row, Drecallis has not appeared on the appointed day to collect her tribute from the people of Longridge. Is the terrible beast dead? Or has the great reptile departed for greener pastures? The elders are desperate to discover the truth, and if the dragon is indeed dead, a priceless hoard may be sitting in the dragon's lair, unguarded. A call has been put out for brave souls willing to seek out the remote lair of Drecallis and investigate!

1 on 1 Adventures #16: The Lost City of Bransik is designed for a Rogue, level 6-8, powered by Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. A reclusive mage desires to recover the spellbook of the powerful wizard, Herinack Dersuni. The mage’s library/workshop was in the Lost City of Bransik which was swallowed up in an earthquake centuries ago. Offering a handsome reward, plus spoils from the recovery operation, you must find this lost city, descend into its ruins and find the library and its precious spellbook. Do you have the skills to survive in a dead and deserted city?

2 New PDF Adventures - 1 OSRIC, 1 Pathfinder!

Just uploaded two adventures - Advanced Adventures #31: The Lost Lair of Drecalis for OSRIC/1e and 1 on 1 Adventures #16: The Lost City of Bransik for Pathfinder. Hrm... Looks like there's a "lost" theme going on today... :-)

If you've any interest, follow the links and check 'em out. The print version are hitting gamestore shelves early next month.

 

In Which I Bitch.....

Wake up this morning to do the business end of the business. I'd rather write, edit, "cartograph", and even art direct more than I like doing mechanical business stuff. I hate doing this crap, but it's vitally necessary. 1:20 later, I'm now done and now I can get back to the more fun and creative aspects of this job.

I created and sent out 3 solicitations - 1 on 1 Adventures #16: The Lost City of Bransik (March 2014), Classified Core Rules (May 2014), and Advanced Adventures #31: The Lost Lair of Drecallis (March 2014).

So there's some dates for ya....

XRP Update (or, I've got a lot going on...)

So what's going on at XRP you ask?

1. Classified - My retro-clone of the old Bond game is complete (sans art, but expecting that by October) and I'm working on two adventures (Operation Rogue Lion, The Bucharest Libretto) right now. I've also got the promise of an other adventure from a freelancer (which I'm tentatively calling Behind Blue Eyes, but which I'm pretty sure will have a different publication name). I want to release the Classified core book with at least one (preferably two) adventures out of the gate sometime in early 2014.

2. Sorcery & Super Science! 2nd Edition - This one I've got quite a bit done on, but I'm still short. I expect I'm about 30% done. I think I'm going to cram all the S&SS information into a single volume for the 2nd edition. I'm hoping to have this one out in late 2014.

3. 1-on-1 Adventures - After a long hiatus, I'm starting to get in manuscripts for new 1-on-1 Adventures. These adventures are for Pathfinder and are designed for only 1 player and 1 GM. I've got a finished on sitting on my hard drive, a 2nd one damn close to completion, and I've got a freelancer working on a connected (but suitable for stand-alone play) series of 4. This will bring the 1-on-1 series up to 21 titles. The new adventures should start coming out towards the end of this year and I'm hoping for a monthly or bi-monthly release schedule.

4. Advanced Adventures - I'm down to the last of the manuscripts I have and #29 and #30 will be coming out before the end of this year. I'm always looking for submissions!

5. A New Project - Not going to say much about his right now, but something came out of the blue and I've decided to run with it. I think it's going to very cool, to say the least. I should have more info on the project in a few days or weeks. I'm quite excited by it. Going to be a nice publishing challenge that I'm looking forward to.
