The Future

[deltadave]

Given that Jake is out of things for the next year and a half, are there any plans in place for order fulfillment and new material?  Is it worth discussing or is Driftwood dead for the duration?

[Brian Leybourne]

Not at all. Keep watching this space.

Will anyone handle adding Internet content to the official website? I have a PDF sourcebook for Weyrth in the making (with Jake's agreement).

We are not sure as of yet.

We are looking for authors of a few in-house supplements we have planned for 2005, but I won't have information on this until the end of the week.

you could simply give fans permission to publish mods and mini-supps and host them on the web page, unless its really good then you could sell them as PDF supps and give the author a share of the net profit...

Thats what I would do at least.

That goes without saying. We will have an internet policy drafted in the near future, but essentially, as long as the material is new (i.e. doesn't repeat material published by us without our permission), and is offered free of charge, it's fine to post it on your own website, as long as the Riddle of Steel is owned by Driftwood Publishing blurb is put on. We would also appreciate a link to our site.

As for us publishing pdfs, it's certainly a possibility, depending on the quality of the product produced. Please contact seneschal@theriddleofsteel.net with any submissions you have.
