Hi old-ToTS'ers and new LW fans alike.
Folks, I need your help: There's a GAMEBOOK Kickstarter project I would like to see succeed: MAELORUM.
It's the 10 year project of Will Fincher (who designed the RPG system, wrote the narrative and did all the artwork SINGLE-HANDEDLY as a solo project.) The very tenacity it takes to FINNISH something like this, to see it through to the end, made me want to back the project and pledge. (That and an ongoing 30-year love of thisobsession hobby. 
)
You can visit the kickstarter page here:
Or take a look at the Maelorum blog:
maelorum.blogspot.com
While you're at it, join the Maelorum Facebook page:
www.facebook.com/pages/Maelorum/159982227790
Things you need to know about this project:
(a) IT'S DONE. Will simply needs the additional $5,000 Kickstarter goal for professional proofing, editing, formatting and to buy some time to add and tweak the artwork.
(b) He's thinking big. The groundwork, structure and narrative for Vol.2 are already in progress.
(c) He's received thumbs-up from gamebook and industry luminaries such as Jonathan Green, Tin Man Games, Megra Entertainment and several RPG blogs.
(d) Maelorum promises a new and unique style of gamebooking and hopes to be the new evolution of the format.
Fellow citizens and denizens of Magnamund, can we lend our support for the MAELORUM kickstarter?
If you feel this is a project you wish to get behind, please, up-end your coin purse and pledge some crowns towards a digital or print copy.
Tweet about #Maelorum, do a SIGNAL BOOST or PLEASE RETWEET containing the kickstarter link, SHARE the Maelorum FB posts on your FB page for the duration of the kickstarter. Add Maelorum's FB page or Kickstarter link to your FB status for a day.
Mention MAELORUM in the various forums you're involved in. (Members of Project Aon, ENWORLD, RPGNet, etc.) Get the word out there. Help me get eyes on the Kickstarter page. It just needs one final PUSH!
PLUS, it good gamebook karma, you get a permanent +1 to any random number rolled.
Here's the Kickstarter link one more time:
Please, folks, I'd hate to see the potential of a new gamebook lost because of the lack of support of the gamebook/solo-RPG community.
For Sommerland, the Kai and the nostalgia you now feel at the thought of picking up your fist gamebook or CYOA. ;D
Kind regards
