Kickstarter Day 3: We are currently $73 short of doubling our original funding goal. We're looking at commissioning more artwork. The alternative is you get to see what I'm capable of with stock art and Photoshop, and I'm not sure anyone is ready for that.

To go along with the Daring & Dread Kickstarter, I'm doing a series of design diaries so people can see the processes I used when creating this world. Today, we start with the main map, which I designed myself over the course of several years.

With fulfillment on Reign of Discordia 2E wrapping up, I can tease my next project. Kickstarting in February will be the Daring & Dread Campaign Setting. Without blabbing too much, I'll just say that this will be a setting book in the old school sense. More description. Less rules. Stay tuned.
