[QUOTE="arjomanes, post: 7659124, member: 94951"] Maybe a co-op people could join that provides subscription material? Something like a DDI for indie design (magazines get partway there, and of course the well-read blogs). Kobold Press is kind of close to that, but you don't really need a membership to read all the free material on their website. It seems writing for a kickstarter book pays better, while writing an article for the website pays considerably less. I'd be curious to see what happens with demand in the next year with 5th edition. A new supplement to the OGL or GSL may make a difference, or it may not. Some publishers are creating 5th edition compatible content under the existing OGL, but that seems an additional legal hurdle that many publishers want to stay clear of. It does seem to me that there's a market for 5e material, but to what extent I'm not sure. [/QUOTE]
