Gang,

It’s my great pleasure to announce that Mythender is in its text-complete phase — everything (except for the designer’s notes) has been written and laid out. It weighs in at just under 250 pages, around 69,000 words. It’s been sent to “the Cabal”: trusted friends and peeps who may have time to look it over before I send it to editing.

Here are some sneak peeks:

• The eight-page running battle example
• Terrorizing Mortals for Power spread
• Thor, God of Thunder
• The Mythic Words intro

To celebrate, I’m having a pre-release G+ party! On this coming Tuesday, June 12th, from 5p-8p Pacific Time/8p-11p Eastern time. (Which is 6p-9p my time, in Denver.) If you show up, you’ll get a link to the pre-release Cabal edition, what the hell! I’ll talk about the game, chat in general, and if people really want, I’ll follow Matthew Gandy’s advice and do some dramatic readers from the text.

Hope to see you there!

Also, since some of you have asked if there’s a way you can support the project, even though it’s free (and released under Creative Commons once its edited!), stay tuned. First step is to finish this game, second step is to think about that.

Rock on, Mythenders.
