TTRPG Tip

Sam Leigh - GoblinMixTape on TikTok

1. Start Small - even 1 page. Helps you start and finish with low stress.

2. Don’t Make it Perfect- it’s ok if it’s trash, requires practice to get good

3. Don’t try and be completely original - take inspiration or even build on the work of others who have System reference documents SRDs

Episode Topic - Why I’m publishing a TTRPG Zine

• Book has a higher funding ceiling.

• Zine lower investment

• Zine lowered risk testing publishing and kickstarter

• Publishing Zine is a strong tradition with RPg publishers

• ZineQuest opportunity
