Hey folks, my name is Tim Shorts and I've been gaming since '79. I did not know on that faithful winter night when I raided a Yahtzee game for dice and tried to wrap my head around this weird game with no board, that I'd still be playing it today.

What's a Micro Adventure?
A micro-adventure is a situation, one to five encounters and maybe one or two battles or problems to overcome. Micro-Adventures set up other adventures, or used between or during larger quests. Most Micro-Adventures are stand alone adventures, but I have been known to create a series of adventures or a micro-sandbox.

Game System
Since late 2016 I've been writing my adventures using the Swords & Wizardry Light system created by Erik Tenkar. It is a free system, available on-line, just click the link. I've gotten a preview of the expanded version of the rules, Swords & Wizardry Continual Light.

My Maps & Content
A Micro-Adventure includes hand-draw a map (by me), usually in color with the occasional computer generated maps. Within these adventures I often create new magic items, spells, or monsters. Micro Adventures are written for the fantasy genre, but I've got ideas for sci-fi, western, and horror.

How big exactly is a Micro-Adventure?
Most of my Micro-Adventures fit on a 4" x 6" notecard or a half page (8" x 5.5"). This includes the map and all the written content. Sometimes they get as large as a folded, one-page zine style.

Frequency
My goal is to produce two to three Micro-Adventures a month. With the new goals achieved, I include an NPC card each month and with each product I release I offer my advice, suggestions on how to use the adventure and NPC.
