EN World Members: D&D / D20 Bragging Rights

I'm a bit late to this party, but I thought I might as well post anyway. In D20, I've written for the following:

Races of Stone (WotC)
Ultimate Adversaries (Star Wars, WotC)
Slayers D20 (GOO) Ennie Nominated!!!
Criminal Intent (GOO)
Path of Shadow (FFG)
Path of the Sword (FFG)
Mastercraft Anthology (FFG)
Dragonstar Player's Guide (FFG)
Swords of Power (FFE)
Rings of Power (FFE)
Wondrous Items of Power (FFE)
Treasure Quests (FFE)
Prophecies of the Dragon (WotC)

I've left off a couple, I'm sure, including licensed setting books where I contributed non-system text, but that's no big deal.

In editing, I've edited (or am editing) the following D20 books:

A Game of Thrones RPG (GOO)
Slayers D20 (GOO)
Criminal Intent (GOO)
Emergency Response 2 (GOO)
The Red Star RPG (Green Ronin)
Noir (Green Ronin)

Wow. Seems like it should be more. A lot of the work I do is actually non-D20 work, including work with GOO on their Tri-Stat system games, work with FanPro on BattleTech and Shadowrun, White Wolf, and so forth.

Contrary to the opinion Mearls offered, I am a unique and beautiful snowflake, but that doesn't mean everything I touch is. When you're working with a group of people devoted to making the project the best it can be, it simply doesn't make sense not to handle changes gracefully. Besides, the more time one spends worked up over requested changes, the less time one has to be completing a project and actually getting paid. :)

I wrote the Adventurer Tricks in the new, unleashed Dragon (and so far, that particular column hasn't been bashed here - whee!).

I also have ten articles scheduled for the next three issues of Dragon.

That's my only print credit now available, courtesy of five grueling years of ultimately futile web work. :\
 

Haven't read through all the thread I'm afraid. I'm having a 'Weird Out' right now, and I thought I'd mention my (sparse) contributions to RPGs before taking a nap.

Thanks to ENWorld I have a 'column' over at Steve Creech's d20 zine place. Soon as I get the first new essay down Mythus Mutters will be (officially) back. In other news I sent off an adventure seed to Expeditious Retreat Press and will be following up with more. I also did a web enhancement for A Magical Medieval Society: Western Europe

Outside ENWorld I was the official rules lawyer for Dangerous Journeys and had an article on mundane magic accepted by Journeys Journal (The DJ magazine). Also had a rules question column in said zine. "Special Consultant" for Charlemagne's Paladins (I'm that "Alan Kellogg"), and playtester on a few GURPS books. Then again, anybody can be a playtester on a GURPs book if they subscribe to Pyramid. :)

Plots and strategems a plenty, but those will have to wait until I actually have something concrete.

Oh, and stray advice and feedback. But most everybody provides that here. And my thanks to all who do.
 

Some of my stuff might make it into Ambient's upcoming Jungles of the Mind, and if so, I'll get paid. Whole deal co-ordinated by M. Jason Parent.

No other publications certain yet.

I've done artwork for two .pdf suppliments--Adventure Anthologies by Phoenix Rising Games and d20 Mastery Book 1: Combat and Skills Companion by 3ednd.com. Unfortunately, neither of these companies are still around. I've also done some artwork for Khan's Press, but neither of those projects have been released yet.
 

Occult Lore (Atlas Games)

I keep making up a bunch of stuff, but a lingering fear keeps me from finishing it! Although all that will change with this d20 modern adventure I'm working on. :D

Despite what people may say ("We do this for love of games!") if they really didn't care about the money, they wouldn't spend it to publish a book and then turn around and sell it into the distribution system. If you really want to do this because you love gaming, build a website, post your ideas, and save yourself a ton of money.

Yep, that's what I came around to - I just decided to post some of my stuff.

I have written a small scenario in BadAxe Games' Halflings, but that is my only d20 published material. I have written a number of contracts for artists and writiers, but that is a different topic ;)

The rest of my stuff (mostly adventures) I throw up on my website when I want to.
 

Well, I walked into the freelance gig a couple of years ago and have a handful of books to my name. All of them are through S&S, 6 for Scarred Lands and 1 for Gamma World. Edge was my last work for the time being while I go looking for a real job(tm) and I'm currently working on getting my first technical article published.

It was a whirlwind romance for me :D

Edit: Man, I didn't notice how old this thread was... serves me right for only looking at the month.

An invitation to brag a little?! I'm all over it.

Actually I'm a very (very) small time, one man, pdf only operation, but I've managed to finish some things and get them out there.

Comic Book Super-Heroes My d20 take on supers and the first thing I did. Four reviews of varying opinion on RPGNow. It's been out for about two years and I'm startled to find that it still sells a few copies every month. My big goal was for this to "not be one more thing that I never got around to finishing."

Random Chaos? A scalable adventure for the CBSH game, still available for free on RPGHoard.com. No reviews that I know of. I wasn't able to playtest this as much as I would have liked, but figured if I put out for free that wouldn't be so much of an issue.

Next Age Heroes My labor of love and devotion, a D&D setting that I could go on and on and on about. Designed to take everything in D&D as is, and put it in a place where pro-active and ambitious PCs can quickly have a powerful influence on the world. Two good reviews are out there; if you're curious, follow the links in my sig. Sales have been low but I love this thing too much to let it go, and most of my time these days is devoted to writing the expansion.

2 Adventures for Next Age Heroes Just what the title says. Two low level, site based adventures designed to introduce PCs to the setting.

That's what I've done. If any big publishing house names (or even small ones) care to make an offer I'm all ears. I love the writing, but going through the steps from last edit to worthwhile product drive me stark raving nuts. Thanks for listening. :)
