While we're still a few months out from mass delivery, I made some rough proofs on Amazon to show off at the GAMA trade expo at the end of this month.
Yes, I'm a terrible tease!
Hopefully, we'll get a distributor/retailer to pick us up and be able to sell these in stores. Fingers crossed.
PS. If you're in the Dallas area next month, I'll have some of these with me for BGG.Spring so you can see it in person.

I'm rewriting the "How to Write Adventures Book" (tripling the length)

Hey all!
Quick update for you all.
I'm in the process of rewriting the DMDave's Ultimate Guide to Adventure Writing. The original manuscript clocked in at around 24 pages. I felt that I wasn't really saying enough, so I decided to go back, tear up the original copy, and thought I could boost it out to 96 pages.
Also, I think I'm going to print the "supplemental" books separate from the box for a couple of reasons.
1) I want to get them to you faster. I can print them in the US, Europe, Canada, etc., so that makes it a little easier for me to send them to you directly through my fulfillment companies.
2) It'll make getting the final products in China (the box, GMSG main book, etc.) a lot easier since they won't have to handle the logistics of the small books. So, in theory, that stuff will come faster. It'll make things a little tidier when I go to send stuff via the fulfillment companies, too.
So that means you'll be getting—more content faster.
Sounds good to me!

Expect a Rush of Content Between Now and Mid-April

Hey everyone!
I'm sitting in the dark in a business center in Boston (nobody can figure out how to turn on the lights haha) and reviewing the comments. Just a quick reminder, if you post a comment I likely won't see it since, for whatever reason, my new iPhone won't let me get push notifications from Kickstarter or Patreon—which is ironic, since those make up 2/3 of my business haha
Either way, I went through them, reviewed some feedback, and hope to get a few things fixed on the main book plus will be releasing the additional content soon.
I've added the remaining bits to my Trello. 99% of it is just formatting stuff (the adventure book is already written, for example), so it's just a matter of "making it pretty." I suspect that it won't take more than two weeks to get it all done. Cards might be longer, but even then, that's not too terribly bad since it's just a matter of setting up a template and changing it 300 times lol
Anywho, if you need anything please, please make sure to hit me up at my email, especially while I'm out of town. I don't want to miss anything and want to make sure that I personally handle all of our customer service bits.
Thanks again!

Hey everyone!
Just a heads-up, but the DMDave team will be in Boston this week for PaxEast. Come by our booth #11097 and say hello. We'll be there the whole time, demoing games and selling some neat stuff. See you there!
Also, I might be slow to reply to messages, so heads-up there.

One last edit on the way!

Hey all!
Just a quick update to let you all know that I'm going to personally do one last pass on the book to iron out any issues there are. Too much stuff got missed on the last one, and I blame myself for not personally looking at it.
Expect a final version, ideally by the end of this week or next. I'll try to release that at the same time I do the adventure writing book.
Thanks again!
