Missed one. Orcus: 95% of writing, NOT publishing. I know next to nothing about publishing because I haven't been published yet!

Re: Erik has the right idea here... Money is no object (except when someone offers a million or so bucks) when it comes to creating. Control is what I want. If I had no control on what I write when it gets published, I would never have even tried to be a writer. If I wanted only the money (see...

No more mentions about Lucas or Stephen King or Spielburg or the like. I'll say it again: If I am as successful as them, I will give every single one of you who replied copies of every single WoTC D&D 3e modules (past and future) there is. Got it? Good.

Re: Re: $20K (or a possible 120K) for your soul? The judges (in which some of them regularly visit this board). Actually, I'm a newbie here. And this was NOT intended to be a troll in any way, shape, or form. Just my own commentary, one which you could agree or disagree on.

The above was just a commentary on selling your ideas for mere cash. Yeah, I was a little TOO overdramatic, but I'm adding myself to RangerWickett's side. (This is mostly to Napftor.) For everyone who wrote/directed/etc., there is always one idea in which they felt dear. Lucas made Star Wars...

Let me start with the following: If you're one of those who cooked up a quick idea within one week for WoTC's campaign setting contest, you'll vehemently disagree with me. I've also hidden my identity to avoid possible bias, for I want to see how far I go in the contest. Besides, it's too late -...
