Well, I'll think about it. Thank you for the offer.
First I think I need to finish this set. And to do that, I need to keep posting things for free for a while. The juices just don't seem to flow unless I can set these things loose on the world as they come to me. It gives me such joy to share cool things with the community that has given me so many cool ideas.
The final versions in the PDF would have the rough edges cleaned up, some explanatory box text to go with them, maybe some of the consistency issues worked out. Maybe--since this isn't really going to be a Deck of Many Things, but something else altogether--maybe some idea of the rules of how it works. Also, I'd want to replace any "borrowed elements" with things that are wholly mine from the ground up, to avoid intellectual property issues. To do that, I'd need to sort out the difference between "borrowed from" and "inspired by."
Meanwhile, the drafts are free for you to enjoy, as long as nobody else is trying to re-use them to make money without my permission.
One thing I would ask in return: if you do use these in your games or stories, I want to hear about it. What did you use them for, how did the party react, what happened.
And if you think of a product that you would like to use them in in a for-profit-venture, like a magazine or mug or t-shirt or whatever, please check in with me first.
I don't mind at all if you laser print a single copy for your own use.
Enjoy, and keep checking in. Thank you for all the kind comments, and the critiques as well.
