More interesting to me is the estimate the article includes of the current number of D&D players worldwide - 40 million!

They are not LARPers. "Girls Guts Glory" are a D&D group who like to cosplay.

Thankyou! I'll have a look at AIGA

I’ve created this guide to help RPG creators understand the current market rates for freelancers across a range of activities. I recall how hard it was to find this information when I was starting out, so I think there is clearly a need for this sort of a guide. In this installment, I include...

Ok, I spoke to Daniel, and he gave me the following information and permission to share it here: However you slice it, he has done incredibly well.
