I'm starting a gaming blog soon. Partly because I'm also intending to start my own 3PP in the very near future. My partner and I have the skeleton of an amazing gameworld and I've been building a name for myself by freelancing for various 3PPs and gaming periodicals (including kobold press, tricky owlbear, open gaming monthly, clockwork chaos, and wayfinder more coming soon.)
The next logical step for me is to start a blog where I contribute but also control the content. Presently I'm looking for a few things:
-I'd like a brave female contributor that doesn't mind writing about what its like to be a female gamer in a male dominated hobby. I want the good stuff the bad stuff the scary stuff but mostly I want someone honest that is willing to be vulnerable and share their voice.
-I'm looking for some overweight gamers interested in using a character concept to design a workout regimen and try to use our hobby to take a positive step forward. Yo'll have to be willing to write about it and do before and after photos.
-I'm looking for fellow lit nerds/game designers that would be interested in taking works of literature like for example shakespere's merchant of venice and glean out workable concepts characters or other useful game stats from the work. Merchant of Venice could well inspire a canal based city with shylock as a tragic villain for example.
-If you have an idea for a blog feature I'm interested in hearing it, I can't guarentee I'll love or want it but I'm open to suggestions.
Target start would be August 1st with the intention of having a decent backlog before we begin posting.
I posted here first because I like and appreciate the talent of the RPG Superstar community and its logical that many of you are looking to make a name.
We're going to do this on Blogger.com FYI

Totally interested.
For reviews I'm creating a template for reviewing based on economics. Price per page, crunch to fluff ratio, and so on. Reviews will be an easy way on the site as you'll have a template to folow its just writing style, providing an opinion and very light math.
