_____

I realized there was a need for a book describing how to write awesome RPG scenarios - adventures that are truly epic.  Adventures that have the fundamentals down cold, as well as, that little bit extra that makes them stand out from the crowd.

Adventure Writing Like a Fucking Boss treads ground parallel to my previous book How To Game Master Like a Fucking Boss.  Except, this new one looks at writing adventures from both the perspective of a GM and author who might be interested in (self)publishing their own material for fun and profit.

Only 14 pages?  Yeah, it's short as Hell, but packs quite a punch.  This is a crash course in adventure writing and pretty much everything you need to start crafting better scenarios!

Also, I was lucky enough to work with Gold Ennie award winning artiste Glynn Seal.  He did the layout.

There's also a sequel called Adventure Writing Like A Fucking Boss II that covers even more ground.  Together, they are an unstoppable powerhouse of wisdom that won't let you down.  Check it out: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/240735/Adventure-Writing-Like-A-Fucking-Boss-II

Enjoy,

This seems like something that would be a great addition to a second edition of How to GM Like a Fucking Boss. I would definitely buy another paper copy of that book if it meant that this text was included.

Is the file called "r333_Veins" the latest file?

Yes, that is correct. the "r333" represents the latest updated files for both versions - veins and print-friendly black and white. The former files with the typos were deleted.

At the moment, there is no r333 file for black and white, just one that says Veins,

I uploaded the updated b/w file myself, and just double-checked it a moment ago. It's called: "AWLAFB_r333_Print-friendly.pdf". You might not have gotten a notification about that specific file, but it's there. Look again, and if you still can't find it, we should take this up with OBS.

I want to say thank you for putting this book out. This book has pretty much open my creative mind again to begin writing adventure hooks. Also hope with enough practice, I can have some of my adventures publish here soon. So once again thank you for writing this book, and later I will be getting your other book on how to GM.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
