Title: Own fanzine?
Post by: Pilger on April 25, 2004, 04:16:07 AM
Talking about indie rpgs isn't such a popular thing, but this forum seems to be a real treasure :)
Me, some other germans and some austrians try the same back here in the old world, if you like, take a look (http://rpg-welten.de) (but it's all german, so sry).

But back to topic - or just better start it ;)

For my own rpg I made a pdf-magazin called Ashherold (http://herold.darcage.com) and think its very good for some extra info and to motivate myself.

Ever tried such a fanzine? What are your experiences? Have you any link?

The best PDF 'zine I've seen was Daedelus (http://www.chimera.info/daedalus/), and I strongly recommend you check it out.

With any 'zine the problems are time (lack of it) and motivation (getting other people to contribute). This is something I've dicovered from running Realms (http://www.realms.org.uk).
