[QUOTE="Old Drew Id, post: 1420031, member: 12175"] As an author, I would love to get anything into print, just for the sake of having my writing in print (not just in PDF form.) As a reader, I would be interested in something like an Anthology, sort of a "Tales from the Gaming Table" kind of thing. I think my SH, and some of the others as well, would have to be either expanded to go full-length, or else trimmed down to short-story length. Eliminate the excess plot lines, etc. and just take the "best of" from each SH and turn it into a short story. Then include a few maps or stats from each SH for game content. In fact, the more I think about it, the more I like that concept. You could break out the anthology into genres. Start with the fantasy genre, for instance, and have a section intro that outlines the genre, plus the different rules sets, books, gaming aids, etc. that were used in each of these stories. Then give the stories themselves, then follow them with an appendix of stats. Then do the same thing for section 2 "d20 modern", then section 3, "pulp adventures", etc. As a reader, I would be interested in that, to see not only what the stories were, but also what the different rules sets were, and what products everyone used, etc. I imagine there could be a good deal available there wherein the different publishers might help out if they got a good plug in there.
