pssssst, don’t tell anyone but now and then I might be talking about none-DW PBTA games…

Hello Tavern!
After a lot of thought over the holidays I decided to take my involvement in the larger DW Community to the next level.
I hope you can find it in your heart to support me.
From the Patreon:
Can’t you just continue to do that Tim? Why a Patreon?
Life as a student isn’t cheap and with my Master Thesis approaching next semester I will be harder pressed for time. I want to continue talking to all of you about Dungeon World and writing more in depth guides to further the understanding of the game. I will also be getting married in August and I need to prioritize for that too. Having a bit of support (morally even more importantly then financially) from all of you can enable me to continue to be a voice in our community without cutting back.
What do you get?
You will get posts and advice from me as you are used to but I will also write more condensed and precise Guides to certain aspects of the game. Aspects like how to think about “Encounters” or Action scenes in Dungeon World. How to improve your pacing or how you can exploit your prep better.
I am also really eager to start working on Style Guides, my take on how one can do setting or genre supplements with Dungeon World as well as Class Guides, i.e. reviews of Dungeon World Classes that are out there.
I also want to take your feedback and write about everything you want to know or discuss as well as pick up topics that are hot in the community.
My goal is to release 3 Guides per Month.
Can anyone see these Guides?
YES! The plan plan is to release the Guides for free to everyone. I write these guides to help you all so putting them behind a pay-wall seems counterintuitive to me.
(Setting Guides might stay Backer Exclusive though)
Do you have any sort of preview for the guides at this point?
I sadly do not.
The plan right now is to release in Google Drive until I learn to make prettier PDFs.
Tim Franzke you have some guides you’ve written for DW that are mentioned above, such as first session for DW and advice on animal companions. Likewise, you’ve made public your google drive which has some custom classes/CCs that give some great insight to how you approach things.
Yeah I read those I was wondering if he had something new he was working on or if it was going to be just more G+ posts and G Docs. Also just curious as to why you don’t just put your guides up on drivethrurpg.com instead of going through the patron thingy.
Because that doesn’t feel right to me.
The only part about your patreon campaign I’m sceptical about is your mention of becoming really busy and that donation would help you get the motivation to keep on working on some guides.
I get mixed intentions here
I get what you are saying.
