Eposic: Role Playing Games and Other Nonsense

The theme for our Summer 2009 anthology, titled Out of Order, has been decided. Check our Fiction Guidelines for the announcement. The reading period for Out of Order will be announced in February 2009; check here and, Ralan permitting, on Ralan.com.

We've changed the format for our guidelines and hope you find it easier to locate all the info you need for any given type of submission without having to scour the Terms page for it, which we've removed from the site; all the relevant information is on the guidelines pages.

Submissions are no longer being accepted for The Book of Exodi. We have made final selections for the anthology from submissions received. We will start sending out contracts this weekend. If we don't get to yours this weekend, please be patient. Each contract is different, and it takes time to ensure that we get each one right.

Publication of The Book of Exodi is planned for Spring 2009. Watch this space for more details.

We've posted a review of Qalidar, a new True20 campaign setting published by Peryton Publishing. GMs of any gaming system can get some great ideas from this supplement; read our review to see what it's all about.
