His stories cover: a technomage working for intergalactic peanut magnets; a Mini-game obsessed card collector with an EX and a heist; a teenage chess hustler dipping into a fantasy VR world to grind for profit. Kit recommends some amazing ice cream I must try and refuses to answer the zombie question. You'll have to listen to find out why.

Matt Dinniman is the author of a few series, but Dungeon Crawler Carl is by and far the most popular. So, popular in fact that dozens of people sent Audible pictures of feet when his book wasn't released in a timely manner. Go to the GameLit Society on Facebook (or Twitter) to see what is happening in the GameLit world and interact with authors and other readers!
Eric Ugland is the author of The Good Guys series which follows a Michigander named Montana in the world of Valdrani. If you like massively overpowered main characters who still manage to fuck up, this is your series. If you are looking for something a little more subtle, check out The Bad Guys (which I have now read all of and am eagerly awaiting the next book). Go to the GameLit Society on Facebook (or Twitter) to see what is happening in the GameLit world and interact with authors and other readers!
If you listen to Game Lit or LitRPG you've probably heard his voice. But have you read his book? Or listened to him read his book? Legends and Lattes is a fantastic book about friendships, belonging, the quiet life, and coffee. I really highly suggest this book to anyone who has wanted to know what happens when the adventure stops and to people who have had a large change in their life and need to find their way again. Go to the GameLit Society on Facebook (or Twitter) to see what is happening in the GameLit world and interact with authors and other readers!

His world was constructed as the result of a thought experiment, 'how would an AI creating a video game compensate for an extreme outlier?' and from the there the world grew. He talks about the various challenges and benefits of building a world in the GameLit genre. Marcos dives into 'Beyond the Aether' a dungeon punk D&D setting he's now run a few campaigns in. His main vision appears to come from a fever dream he had where paladins with rainbow warhammers astride jet powered dragons rule the skies. In short his world was built from a visual theme that caught his attention and he figured 'why not?' and crafted his psychedelic world from that kernel. Both worlds have their own very unique flavors but, perhaps most importantly, they have different origins. The fairycake (core idea) used to build each of these worlds is vastly different and lead to some fascinating insights into the craft of worldbuilding.

Welcome to Jon’s Author Diary for the week ending May 17, 2020. Something happened this week that felt like a massive weight was lifted off my shoulders, like a huge ball of tension burst. Some of the lockdown restrictions were lifted here in England on Wednesday, so I’ve been taking advantage of being able to go outside more than once a day. However, that wasn’t what relieved the tension. It was my birthday on Tuesday. I celebrated in true author in lockdown style by releasing a book and eating pizza. It’s the second time I’ve released a book on my birthday, and, if I’m being honest, it’s probably not the best idea, especially when the book in question didn’t exactly do well. No. The thing that did it was a chiming melody coming down our street and an ice cream van stopping outside our house. We all had a 99 (which for those unfamiliar is whippy ice cream on a cone with a chunk of Cadbury’s Flake sticking out of it. This was the best ice cream I’ve ever had. I’m not kidding. Sure, it tasted like every other 99 I’ve ever had, but this one brought huge smiles. And, I can’t believe I’m writing this, when I reflected on it I ended up shedding a few tears. Crazy, right? Of course, it was probably a whole bunch of tension about everything coming out, but for me it signified we’d passed an important point. We are now in a world where when an unexpected treat is possible, where spontaneity is possible. When you’re planning your meals out two weeks in advance and the days seem to blend into one, a little thing like an ice cream van turning up unexpectedly represented something hopeful to me. I hope wherever you are things are starting to look better. Two releases This week saw me release two books! I launched Blind Reset, which is the second book in my Gambit duology—a GameLit series about dealing with going blind. The Tower, book 16 of The Ravenglass Chronicles, just went live in the Kindle store. Click HERE to grab your copy. You can read both titles on Kindle Unlimited. Writing update I’ve sent The Star, episode 17 of The Ravenglass Chronicles, to my editor and have turned my attention to redrafting Cleric of the Wasteland, which will be the fourth novel in my Wastelandseries. I wrote the first draft a year ago and I have to admit it feels very odd going back to that series. It’s a story I started writing in 2016, and so it’s been a bit of shift to get back into Abel’s head. That being said, the writing is going well enough. It’s a slow process, but I’m 20 percent through the redraft. It’s just a case of working on a few thousand words each day until it’s complete. This is part of my 2020 aim to clear all my open projects before moving onto my new series next year. Looking forward If you missed my author diary podcast last week, I talked about my plans for my next series when Kat’s journey ends. I’ve really enjoyed using the tarot’s major arcana to inspire the story. I’ve decided to keep going with the tarot influence and move on to the tarot’s suit cards—swords, cups, wands, and coins. The new stories will be set in the Ravenglass Universe with new characters and new locations. My head is filled with ideas for a series featuring a pair of thieves turned reluctant assassins. And, of course, there’s always room for more wyverns. Take care, Jon
Hello everyone, welcome to episode 225 of the LitRPG podcast. This week we have a couple new LitRPG Deals, an online GameLit panel video, and I review: Bio Dungeon, Force Cultivation, Cryo Knight, The Mechanical Crafter
Welcome to Jon’s Author Diary for the week ending May 3, 2020. As I write this, I’ve just finished my first draft of The Star, book 17 of The Ravenglass Chronicles. Book 16, The Tower is currently with the editor, so I’m hoping to get that released as soon it is proofread, which should be some time over the next week or two. My novel Blind Reset, the follow-up to my GameLit novel/mediation on disability Blind Gambit, is also being edited, and should be back for the final proofread next weekend. I don’t have a release date set, but as soon as it’s ready, I’ll get it out to the world. Blind Reset will be the second and final book in that series as I’ve told the story I wanted to and anything else will be padding for sake of it. If you’ve been following along with my Author Diary podcast, you’ll know that I came to a decision about the future of The Ravenglass Chronicles. Kat’s story is told using the cards of the tarot’s major arcana—22 cards equals 22 episodes (including the prequel). I’ve built quite a world and magic system, and have a lot of stories I still want to tell in that universe. So once the final book of the current series is done and Cleric of the Wasteland is released, I’m going to carry on writing in the Ravenglass Universe. It’s an ambitious aim, but I’m going to start writing series based on the minor arcana—four suits containing 14 cards. This means four series of 14 novellas. By the time I’ve finished, I will have written 78 novellas. So this one’s going to keep me busy for the next few years. With the backlog projects (three non-fiction books, two novels, and a collaborative trilogy) behind me next year, I’ll be able to focus my full attention on getting the stories out on a more consistent basis. I’m excited and daunted by the prospect. But I love a good challenge! Yours, Jon

We interview professional audiobook narrator Luke Justin Daniels
Blurb #1: Author: Martha Henley Title: Don't Kill For Me (The Crew Book 1) Eileen must question everyone she’s ever met to save everyone she’s ever hated. Serial killers are out there, but nobody expected this one to resurface. An anonymous letter is left on the counter of a floral boutique in a dying shopping mall. In it is a confession for murder — it’s signed RIP. The vigilante Rest in Peace Killer has chosen Eileen Somers as his latest victim. Now he’s killing her adversaries one by one so Eileen can rest in peace, but she doesn’t want his kind of help. Identifying a serial killer who walks among the ordinary shoppers in the mall seems impossible, but Eileen is desperate to stop him. After three men are killed, she’s running low on enemies. If she doesn’t crack the code in his confession letters, an innocent man will die. Don't Kill For Me is the debut psychological thriller from Martha Henley. This plot-twisting novel will have you looking twice at every stranger who crosses your path. Don’t miss reading the Rest in Peace Killer’s terrifying mission to please one woman by committing murder on her behalf. Blurb #2: Author: J.D.L. Rosell Title: Absalom’s Fate: A GameLit/LitRPG Quest (The Everlands Book 1) Sean Marrow is desperate to enter The Everlands, the ground-breaking VR game that everyone's talking about. He's so desperate that, despite being underage, he sneaks into a gaming lounge just for a chance to play. The Everlands has everything he'd hoped for: daring quests, wicked monsters, and more than a few intriguing women. But Marrow is also in danger. For reasons he doesn't understand, the gods of the Everlands are in conflict, and he's caught in the middle of it. Stuck in the game, Marrow has to quickly gain power in order to discover the reason behind the game of the gods, and put an end to it before the Everlands are destroyed -- and Marrow along with them. If you can't get enough LitRPG and GameLit, you'll love the first thrilling book of The Everlands saga! Abigail's Tip of the Week: Always ask readers to buy your book at the end of your description.

Support this Podcast in 3 Clicks! In This Episode: We talk about the LitRPG genre of books in a listener-sponsored episode from Patreon! Thanks for the idea and the support of the podcast Ken Murray! If you've never heard of the genre, that's okay! We dig into what makes up the LitRPG genre, and how it's kind of a subgenre of the GameLit category that's popped up over the past few years. In general, it is a little hard for us to define the genre in specific terms. The best we can really lay out (aside from the books that we talk about in this episode) are Sword Art Online, .hack, and maybe Ready Player One. After we stopped recording, Beej thought about potentially For the Win by Cory Doctorow, but still...that's a little different. And so is REAMDE by Neal Stephenson. They're at the very least LitRPG-adjacent. General Thoughts on LitRPG We both generally like the genre, and the books Ken got to us were chosen specifically for our tastes. Void got Dungeon Born by Dakota Krout, and Beej read Ascend Online by Luke Chmilenko. Both books are different from the other, with Void's being more geared toward tabletop RPGs, while Beej's is video game-based. In Dungeon Born, the conceit is the story being told from a dungeon's perspective (I know!), and how it grows and tries to balance itself with risk-vs-reward for the adventurers who come in. Ascend Online, though, is about a fully immersive VR MMO where folks stay in a sensory deprivation dormitory and essentially live in a game world that's the ideal sandbox for online gaming. We go through what works for us with these books in the LitRPG genre, and we also talk about what doesn't. The positives far outweigh the negatives, though, and Beej is totally on board for reading the rest of the series, and Void has already dug in and listened to all but the last half-book in his series on audio. We really have to thank Ken for turning us onto both the series and the books themselves. Listener support is always great, and this time, it broadened our horizons, too. So double score! Weekly Geekery Beej has been making his own RPG in RPG Maker MV (which can be played at https://bit.ly/beejrpg), and he saw Captain Marvel twice over opening weekend. It was better the second time, though he did really like it on the first one. No matter what those review bombers say, Carol Danvers is freaking awesome. Void has some thoughts on Anthem, too. He's mentioned before that his feelings are mixed, but he's still having a hard time finding the fun. They don't let him fly enough, and the game is too on-rails for the way it was advertised. The BioWare component seems completely at war with the core gameplay, and he is having a hard time making himself finish the story. He wants to care, but really doesn't. Thanks, Geeks! That's it for this week, geeks. Make sure to tell your friends about us! We'll be back next week with some more juicy, geeky goodness. (That sounds gross, but whatever. You get it.)

They talk about Blaise’s books, GameLit, and of course weapons and armor. Game Reads is hosted and produced by Sean Callahan, a nice guy and fan of the LitRPG and GameLit. I even helped him with the intro explanation video to the podcast. https://youtu.be/xnnESw7ps1o I was recently on Druken Dice, a video podcast where ‘the dice aren’t the only things loaded.’ Charles Dean’s latest podcast where he and some friends play a tabletop RPG.
