Would some of you be interested in reviewing a homebrewed guide of mine?

[Warden Void]

Not sure if this is allowed on the forums so here goes...

I've finished writing up (both in english and in french) a homebrewed player companion guide for one of the nations in my campaign's setting.

It's the same length as Paizo's official player companions (32 pages, 36 if you count the covers and back-covers).

It's a solo project (even the illustrations), so I'd really appreciate it if I could get another, perhaps more experienced, pair of eyes on it.

If any of you are interested, feel free to reply here.

PS: I'd rather not just upload the doc for all to see just in case I want to do something with it that goes beyond just sharing it with my circle of players.

{ed: 32-36pg with illustrations, looking for trusted review}

PF Infinite would be your outlet (as you use their setting) so I'd check their requirements/criteria. Probably best outside of inner sea area.

But I'm using my own setting? Nothing from Golarion

I could give it a quick read if you want to PM me the link. But what kinds of feedback are you looking for? Clarity? Balance?

Balance for the homebrewed traits. But clarity and general comments would be nice too!

Could I send you the pdf file?

I’m not sure if you can PM files. I expected you would use a google docs link. Or maybe something like Dropbox

It is my understanding there are two levels of usage; 1)PF1 compatible using the OGL and PF1 license like a 3rd party publisher, 2)PF campaign material selling on Pathfinder Infinite and Paizo takes a bigger chunk of sales.

When it comes to sharing creative work I'd have the prospective reviewer sign a small agreement so you lay out some bounds of what you want, what they can expect, and what they can do with your information after the disclosure and review. It's called an NDA (non-disclosure agreement). No need to get fancy but you need some words on paper so you can sleep snugly at night. If you don't plan on selling the work then it doesn't really matter.

as a side note Writer Beware is a good website

Thanks for the advice! For now, I'll just trust other users, because I'm still uncertain on what to do with it after this point. Just throwing this out there, but would you also be interested in reviewing it?

ô¿ô I did stick my thumb into the clafoutis.

*sigh* you have slammed into my sense of professionalism. I don't as money is the salve for being ignored and wasting time. I tried with some trite posters and it is just irritating. So No for now.

Melkiador does reasonable posts.

So that's a no then? That's fine, no hard feelings. I understand your reasoning.
