Forgites,
I am interested in a candid no punches pulled private, or offlist, dialog with any published Indie game designer that is willing to openly discuss topics regarding the Indie Game Design Ethic as stated at The Forge (ie. "Creator Owned & Published") as it relates to business practices, gaming subcultural perceptions, and what has been painted to me from a number of sources as the near legendary "starving artist's wages" such designers are rumored to earn.
Anyone interested, or just willing to put up with a nearly endless slew of questions (no, really you can limit me if it helps me get at taker) please PM me.
Regards, Brad
