SFX
I did an interview for SFX as part of their annual Pulp
Idol fiction competition, which D&D is sponsoring this year. Check it
out!Keep an eye on the Wizards of the Coast Books site for another
interview, and hopefully another article to celebrate the conjunction of the
release of Dragon Forge and the launch of 4th Edition, coming up in just 2
days!This week, Greg Bilsland
(one of our able editors) has been joining me at Starbucks around 7:30 A.M. to
write. We're serving each other as incentive—I'm more likely to roll out
of bed when the alarm goes off at 6:10 if I know Greg will be waiting for me. So
Dragon
War is coming
along...Speaking
of the launch of 4th
Edition:• Thursday we're
having a company-wide celebration of the launch with our own little game day.
I'll be running a session in the morning and then teaching a lunchtime workshop
on DMing 4th Edition.• Friday
we're having a little departmental celebration of a slightly different sort.
Between the Thursday event and the Saturday one, just about everyone in R&D
will have one or more opportunities to run straightforward D&D adventures.
On Thursday, we're giving most of the department a chance to play some D&D
that's a little less straightforward. My scenario is the most straightforward,
involving two white dragons, demons frozen in ice and spawning undead, heroes
frozen in ice whose spirits grant boons, treasure frozen in ice, and a Dudley
Doright snowball sweeping across the battlefield, carrying characters off with
it (hands, feet, and head sticking out as it
goes).• Saturday, of course, is
Worldwide D&D Game Day, and I'll be celebrating (with most of the rest of
R&D) at Neumo's in Seattle.
