So have you picked a name PD? I am fond of The Frosthelm Chronicles, but I am open to arguments for other names. But right now that is the way I am leaning.

And are you going to do this? I think so, but it is too soon for any time frame to be put forth.

I think any of all of these qualities would be great to have in a fanzine of any length and regardless of content. More important than art, editing, anything like that (although art and good editing are good). I quite agree, all the art and editing in the world will not compensate for the lack of these things.

Reading about APAs has made me evne more interest in this. I think there is plenty of creative material on this board that we can and should put something together. Art and so on can come later, or even plans for it, but I think the first step is to get together material that people would submit. I'm not trying to take over the project, but I do want to keep bumping this. For my part, since I have some material on here, I'll think about what chunk might seem submittable. I hope other folks will do the same.

I will also ask him to create a group for this and add to the group those who have volunteered to help.

OK, the Admin has created and added a work group area for this fanzine project to begin. Everyone who has volunteered has been added to the group and tagged to let them know the group is there. No one else can see the group for obvious reasons. Anyone who wants to volunteer to help (a little teeny tiny bit or a lot or anything in between, should let me know and the Admin will add you to the group.

I've just been lurking and taking it all in, years worth of stuff here to read. But I wanted to chime in and say I love the thought of a fanzine. I really don't know anyway I can help, but I 100% for this.

Between The Frosthelm Chronicles and Mysteries of Murkhill it is going to come down to a coin flip. But for me, I lean towards the first one by a little tiny bit. Hey, The Perilous Dreamer you should use Mysteries of Murkhill for a series of pdf that you put out on your own on drive thru. The Mysteries of Murkhill Series.

Perhaps, I have some thoughts on that, that I am kicking around.

Have just been hearing about a fanzine, had to come check it out. A centerfold would be a plus, in suitable armor of course. Hey Admin Pete have you finalized the name yet?

The Admin and I am working on this together along with a whole lot of other people. We do not have any specific time frame yet. Right now we are working on our own contributions and watching other things come in. Right now there are a number of things that are being worked on and once we have enough for an issue we will look at a completion date and a possible publication date. We are hoping for late this year, but we will see.

A centerfold would be a plus, in suitable armor of course. Hey Admin Pete have you finalized the name yet? I have not given a thought to a centerfold, but that is an idea. A centerfold of an original monster might go right with a D&D fanzine. Got to find an artist first though. Would be interesting to see if people found it funny or if people got offended by it. Satire or parody go right over too many peoples heads these days. But something to think about.

I am going to defer to The Perilous Dreamer for all questions about the fanzine. I move things around as requested and help where ever I can, but this is his baby (and the team of volunteers, their baby too!)

I think a fanzine is a GREAT idea! Maybe a quarterly at first to keep it low commitment? I would be willing to contribute. It might help to come up with a list of brainstorming ideas like:
Alternate Ability Generation Methods New Races, Classes, etc. DM Aids
