Greenwood is writing Forgotten Realms: The Unofficial, Non-Canon, Unlicensed, Utterly Unapproved 50-Year History under the auspices of The Ed Greenwood Group and plans to release it at Gen Con in August this year, and once a week there will be updates on the web where he'll [HQ]"peek behind the curtain and let you know something else about the untold history of the Realms, things you’ve never known".[/HQ][PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]Here's the full announcement: [hq]"Welcome to the unofficial history of the Forgotten Realms.® Have you ever wondered why I, the guy who created the Realms in the first place, decided to share it with the wider world? Do you want to hear behind-the-scenes stories, some of those that can now be told, about why things are the way they are? Why, for instance, that from the beginning the Forgotten Realms® maps didn’t have hexes all over them, so the rivers didn’t run in little diagonal lines along the edges of hexes, but rather the maps looked like maps of real places, rather than game maps? Ever wondered about things like that? Well, for the answers to those questions and many others, just keep visiting our site throughout the year because once a week we’ll peek behind the curtain and let you know something else about the untold history of the Realms, things you’ve never known. Things you may not even have thought to ask about, things that are deep dark secrets of the Realms. See you every week, throughout the year! The Ed Greenwood Group will launch its first projects in August at GenCon 2015 in Indianapolis—<a href="http://theedverse.us7.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=02e3adb9c3166d330ccdc9e83&id=915e170012&e=1c0a32ba7f" target="_blank">Forgotten Realms: The Unofficial, Non-Canon, Unlicensed, Utterly Unapproved 50-Year History</a> by Ed Greenwood, curated by Brian Cortijo and <a href="http://theedverse.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=02e3adb9c3166d330ccdc9e83&id=274bc7ee1d&e=1c0a32ba7f" target="_blank">All is Lust: Letters With a Hooded Lady</a> by Ed Greenwood and The Hooded One.
