Reader

per month
You want to see new company histories months or years before anyone else.
At this tier, I'll send you new company articles as I draft them, currently planned about one a month. These will be the contents of what will someday be Designers & Dragons: The Lost Histories and Designers & Dragons: The '10s.

Commentator
$9
per month
You want to get the inside scoop on Designers & Dragons, to read other works, and perhaps to give feedback as well.
I'll send you monthly updates and the company histories as I draft them.
Also, I'll give you the inside track on the development of Designers & Dragons (and possibly other books). This will include discussions of notable questions or problems raised by the various articles as well as previews of the separate TSR product history books.
Finally, on request, I'll make sure that you have a way to send me back commented versions of articles; I can't guarantee I'll use the comments or respond to them, but I'll definitely take a look.

per monthAbout Designers & Dragons
Designers & Dragons is the history of the roleplaying industry, told one company at a time. The original stories were published as a series of four books, covering the '70s, '80s, '90s, and '00s (which are still available electronically, as audio books, and possibly in print). But, there are more histories to be told!
Currently, I am working on a new series of company histories covering "lost histories" (stories from the '70s through '00s not in the original books) and "the '10s". These will be published here in early drafts for patrons to read, prior to their eventual publication in new books. Super-patrons ("commentators") will also get to see occasional previews of my other works, including a series of product history books focused on the releases of TSR and WoTC.
I invite you to support the continued development of Designers & Dragons!
Please note that this Patreon does not cover the actual books, existing or future, but instead supports my development of the material in raw form.
