Project Update: Second Person
A few months ago I wrote an essay entitled "From the Basement to the Basic Set," which gave an overview of the birth of Dungeons & Dragons from its origin in the field of miniatures wargames to the consolidated "Basic Set" published in 1977.
The essay is just one of several to be published by MIT Press in a book entitled "Second Person: Role Playing and Story in Games and Playable Media," which is scheduled for a November 2006 release. I was pleased to contribute to such an interesting project, and am proud to have an essay alongside such authors as George R.R. Martin, Greg Costikyan, Kenneth Hite, Jonathan Tweet, John Tynes, and James Wallis, all of whom I admire for one reason or another.
In any event, MIT just put up their order page for the book, which will cost you $45.00 in hardcover.
Cheap.
