I've been trying to keep track, mentally, of how many projects and products Dreamscarred Press is in the middle of designing and developing. I gave up, and decided to make a list instead.
- Akashic Mysteries
- Monster Classes
- Something-Or-Other, the First Language
- Lords of the Mist
- Arcforge
- psionic/psychic supplement---or is that one out already?
- the Medic (path of war expansion)
Which ones am I missing?
Looks like you're missing Lords of the Wild (the werewolf supplement) and Steelforge (the items supplement), as well as the full names of Tzocatl, The First Language and Psionics Augmented: Occult.
We've got a list of other projects on our Patreon as well.
Steelforge as well, can't forget mine.
Isn't there also that Soulknife one since it's only been partially released so far?
They have A LOT of developers and one man to make PDFs. One man with a full time job that's not working on DSP products.
The writers gotta have something to do and this creates a very steady release schedule for us to look forward to.
Also for all we know several of those are complete and just waiting to be formatted.
They have A LOT of developers and one man to make PDFs.
That reminds me that I should maybe poke Jeremy.
Which also reminds me that I should maybe poke myself.
Thank you.

So this is a valid question and one I wanted to respond to.
As mentioned above, we have quite a few people wanting to write books, but there's a couple of bottlenecks in getting them to release. Layout and artwork are the two bottlenecks, and for artwork, it's often budget more than artists available, or it's the delay in coming up with the art order and getting a finished piece back. That's why our Monster Class line has been coming out so rapidly - we have artwork available, the content completed, and the layout has been going quickly. We've also brought on a couple folks to help with layout, which will hopefully be speeding things up that have been waiting to get out the door.
The other thing is that we have a variety of developers working on different things. While there is some overlap on who is working on which projects, once things get done and put into playtesting, writers want to write. And if they want to work on projects that fit for us, we're more than happy to let them! If the book's going to get written one way or the other and we like the project, it's a win-win.
Milo - yes, the second part of Psionics Augmented: Soulknives will be out hopefully soon.
Akashic Mysteries is our next big project that will wrap up now that Path of War Expanded is off to the printer. The Supplemental Content ended up being a gigantic release and the proofreading on it took quite some time. With those two things out of the way (Path of War Expanded and the proofreading), it's going into layout so we can get the book compiled and to the printer.
The Medic is ongoing support for the Path of War product line, just as Occult and Soulknives are ongoing support for our Psionics product line.
