Podcasts about Shadowlands

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 is coming soon, so we look at some comics that may influence where the MCU story could go. Shadowlands is rumored to be a key source. We'll look back on a few stories and predict what may be used. Plus, we give our recap and review of Wonder Man. Jay and Josh dare to wonder what superheroes can do for you on Superhero Suite.

Hoy vamos a crear personajes y arquetipos para Pasión de las Pasiones. Piloto Prodigio Carolina Cardoso Talento puro, impulsividad, vive al límite. Carolina Cardoso no llegó al primer equipo por casualidad. Desde niña devoraba cada curva en los karts de su barrio, y a los trece ya analizaba telemetrías como si fueran partituras. Su ascenso fue tan rápido como incómodo para quienes la subestimaron: campeona juvenil, fichaje sorpresa en la academia del equipo y, finalmente, la piloto que marcaba tiempos imposibles en los simuladores. Cuando la escudería necesitó sangre nueva, su nombre fue el único que nadie se atrevió a cuestionar. Entró al primer equipo con la misma determinación con la que conduce: sin pedir permiso, sin mirar atrás. ¿Quieres demostrar algo? Es la pregunta que más se hace. ___ Es quien más respetas y puede conseguir que hagas algo al momento. ___ Es con quien te has peleado desde que tienes uso de razón. En el último episodio. Sus estados más comunes son la indisciplina, la obsesión, la introspección y arrogancia. Siente que no le ayudan, que solo le piden, le reclaman y eso le hace entrar en crisis nerviosa. “Nacida para esto” Cuando ejecutas una maniobra imposible, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás ignorando el consejo de alguien? ¿Estás arriesgando algo importante para ti? “Más rápido que mis dudas” Cuando reaccionas antes de pensar para evitar un desastre, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás actuando por puro instinto? ¿Estás en una situación que te recuerda a un fracaso pasado? “Quiero que me vean” Cuando intentas impresionar a alguien (público, rival, equipo), tira con las preguntas: ¿Te estás jugando algo en ello? ¿Las dudas que te surgen son mayores que las posibilidades de conseguir tu objetivo? Veteranía en Decadencia Miguel Maldonado Experiencia, cicatrices, sabiduría amarga. Lleva el peso de demasiadas temporadas a la espalda. Fue un referente, un piloto capaz de leer la pista como si fuera un viejo mapa familiar, pero los años y las lesiones han ido limando su filo. Ahora lucha más contra el cronómetro interno que contra sus rivales: reflejos que ya no responden igual, decisiones que antes eran instinto y ahora requieren un segundo de duda. Aun así, sigue ahí, aferrado al volante con la terquedad de quien no sabe vivir sin el rugido del motor. Su decadencia no es derrota, sino un lento y doloroso recordatorio de que incluso las leyendas tienen fecha de caducidad. ¿Estás usando tu experiencia para anticipar el peligro? ___ es a quien defenderás a capa y espada ___ es con quien estuviste a punto de tirarlo todo por la borda pero ninguno de los dos aceptasteis las condiciones Movimientos “He sobrevivido a peores curvas” Cuando mantienes la calma en una situación extrema, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás ignorando el dolor o el cansancio? ¿Estás protegiendo a alguien más joven? “Sé cómo termina esto” Cuando adviertes a alguien sobre un riesgo real, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Te preocupa genuinamente esa persona? ¿Has visto este error antes? “Última vuelta en mis huesos” Una vez por sesión, puedes convertir un fallo en un 7–9 describiendo un recuerdo doloroso que te impulsa. Genio del motor Conoce el coche como si fuera un organismo vivo Sandra Sierra El corazón del equipo, inventora, obsesiva. Nacida con las manos manchadas de grasa y la mente llena de planos imposibles. En el taller de su familia aprendió antes a desmontar un carburador que a montar una frase larga, y desde entonces nadie ha logrado seguirle el ritmo. No es solo una mecánica brillante: es una genio del motor, capaz de escuchar un propulsor y detectar fallos que otros solo verían con horas de diagnóstico. Su fama empezó en los circuitos menores, donde convertía chatarra en máquinas que rugían como bestias nuevas. El salto al equipo profesional fue inevitable; necesitaban a alguien que no solo reparara, sino que reinventara. Y Sandra, con su mezcla de intuición salvaje y precisión quirúrgica, era la única capaz de hacerlo. ¿Estás trabajando bajo presión extrema? ___ Es la persona con quien siempre te has sentido peor valorada ___ Es la persona con la que más has reído y llorado nunca Movimientos “Lo escucho respirar” Cuando diagnosticas un problema, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás tocando el tema directamente? ¿Estás ignorando a quienes dudan de ti? “Ajuste milagroso” Cuando haces una mejora arriesgada, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás improvisando con piezas imposibles? ¿Estás sacrificando algo personal (tiempo, sueño, reputación)? “No corro, pero lucho por ellos” Cuando das apoyo emocional a un piloto, si te escucha, ambos desmarcáis un estado en la siguiente escena conjunta. Jefa de Equipo  Inteligente, analítica, mantiene la calma bajo presión.  Donatela D’Angelo Donatela D'Angelo dirige el equipo con la precisión de una directora de orquesta y la frialdad de alguien que ya ha sobrevivido a demasiadas guerras internas del paddock. Hija de una estirpe de ingenieros italianos, creció entre planos, motores y discusiones técnicas que otros niños no habrían entendido. Su talento nunca estuvo en el volante, sino en ver el conjunto: anticipar fallos, leer a las personas, detectar oportunidades donde otros solo ven caos. Su reputación se forjó a base de decisiones duras y resultados incuestionables. Donatela no grita, no amenaza; basta con que te mire por encima de las gafas para que entiendas que no hay margen para la mediocridad. Bajo su mando, el equipo funciona como una máquina afinada: cada pieza en su sitio, cada piloto consciente de que ella siempre va dos pasos por delante. ¿Estás intentando mantener unido al equipo? __ Es con quien tienes más complicidad __ Es en quien no confías ni un ápice aunque no puedas pasar de ella Movimientos “Tengo el mapa completo” Cuando lees la carrera como un tablero, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás observando desde una posición elevada o privilegiada? ¿Estás anticipando varios movimientos por delante? “Confía en mi voz” Cuando guías a un piloto por radio, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Te está escuchando solo a ti? ¿Estás arriesgando tu reputación si falla? Patrocinador Ambicioso Quiere resultados, visibilidad y dinero. Víctor Vormelker Viktor Vormelker no pone su nombre en un monoplaza por amor al arte. Magnate centroeuropeo del sector tecnológico, construyó su fortuna a base de adquisiciones agresivas y una intuición casi inquietante para detectar negocios emergentes. En el paddock lo respetan y lo temen a partes iguales: cuando Viktor aparece, significa que algo importante está a punto de ocurrir. Su patrocinio no es solo dinero; es influencia, contactos, acceso a recursos que otros equipos solo pueden soñar. Pero todo tiene un precio. Vormelker exige resultados, visibilidad y una narrativa que refuerce su imperio personal. No levanta la voz, pero cada palabra suya pesa como un contrato. Para el equipo, es un aliado imprescindible… y una sombra constante que recuerda que en la alta competición nada es gratis. ¿Estás ocultando tus verdaderas intenciones? __ es con quien puedes confiar, aunque no confíes nunca en nadie __ es la persona que nunca dejarías a cargo de nada Movimientos “Esto es un negocio” Cuando negocias recursos, permisos o favores, tira con Carisma. ¿Estás presionando emocionalmente? ¿Estás mintiendo descaradamente? “La marca primero” Cuando fuerzas a alguien a actuar por imagen, marcas un estado pero generas el estado de tensión o resentimiento. “Todo tiene un precio” Puedes gastar recursos, aunque cada gasto genera un enemigo, para: Cancelar una complicación. Conseguir una pieza rara. Sobornar. Rival Implacable Frío, calculador, obsesionado con ganar. Gilberto Ghetin Gilberto Ghetin es el tipo de rival que convierte cada carrera en una declaración de guerra. No busca amigos en el paddock ni necesita caer bien: su reputación se ha construido a base de adelantamientos quirúrgicos, maniobras al límite y una frialdad que desconcierta incluso a los veteranos. Donde otros ven riesgo, él ve oportunidad; donde otros dudan, él ya ha ejecutado. Su disciplina roza lo obsesivo. Estudia a sus contrincantes como si fueran ecuaciones: patrones, debilidades, impulsos. Y cuando encuentra una grieta, la explota sin piedad. Para el equipo de Donatela, Ghetin es una sombra constante en los retrovisores Preguntas del Playbook ¿Estás actuando con frialdad absoluta? Movimientos “No siento nada” Cuando ignoras dolor o vínculos para centrarte en ganar, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás reprimiendo algo que te duele? ¿Estás dispuesto a cruzar una línea moral? “Aguijón psicológico” Cuando provocas a alguien para que cometa un error, tira y suma +1 por cada “sí” a: ¿Estás intentando humillarle públicamente? ¿Conoces su punto débil? La música que se escucha al principio es The Edge de Swoop. License code: AF9VIM0FXNO8YMOQ Suny Side/Airstream

Hoy vamos a crear un escenario para Pasión de las Pasiones. “Asfalto en el corazón” Drama, velocidad y decisiones que derretirán el asfalto. Argumento El campeonato internacional SuperGT está en su punto más álgido. Equipos, patrocinadores, pilotos y mecánicos se reúnen en una temporada donde la gloria es tan importante como el amor, la lealtad y la reputación. Cada carrera es un espectáculo, pero lo que ocurre fuera de la pista seguro que tiene más repercusión. El regreso inesperado de Sandra Sierra, una genial mecánica que desapareció tras un accidente en extrañas circunstancias, sacude el equilibrio del paddock. Su vuelta despierta viejas heridas en Donatella D'Angelo, la jefa de equipo que fue su aliada más cercana… y algo más. Mientras ambas intentan reconstruir una confianza rota, el veterano Miguel Maldonado lucha por demostrar que aún tiene un lugar en la pista, aunque su cuerpo diga lo contrario. En paralelo, el equipo se ve presionado por su patrocinador, el ambicioso Víctor Vormelker que no duda en manipular a quien haga falta para proteger su inversión. Su presencia atrae la atención del rival, especialmente de Gilberto Ghetin, el enigmático rey del equipo estrella del mundial, que parece tener un interés personal en Sandra… y en su coche. La joven promesa Carolina Cardoso asciende con una rapidez que incomoda a todos. A pesar de las crecientes tensiones los dueños quieren mantener unidos a todos los trabajadores y aficionados por el bien del equipo. Cada carrera se convertirá en un campo de batalla donde la estrategia, el orgullo y el corazón pesan tanto como la velocidad. Ya hemos creado 6 Personajes/arquetipos para el juego: Sandra Sierra: Genio de los motores Donatella D'Angelo: jefa de escudería Miguel Maldonado: Veteranía en decadencia Víctor Vormelker: Patrocinador ambicioso Carolina Cardoso: Piloto prodigio Gilberto Ghetin: Rival implacable CABECERA Sonidos de pistolas de aire comprimido apretando tuercas, olor de grasa y aceite, respiraciones profundas para tranquilizar emociones, ruido de los motores acelerando a fondo, gradas llenas de aficionados animando a sus pilotos favoritos, semáforos en rojo…. Y verde comienza la Carrera LOCALIZACIONES El Circuito Estrella La sede principal. Luces, cámaras, prensa, glamour. Preguntas: ¿Qué rincón del circuito es tu refugio secreto? ¿Qué parte del circuito te trae un recuerdo doloroso? Los Boxes El corazón emocional del equipo. Preguntas: ¿A quién no quieres ver aquí? ¿Qué objeto guardas en tu caja de herramientas que nadie conoce? El Garaje Clandestino Donde se preparan coches ilegales, apuestas y carreras nocturnas. Preguntas: ¿Qué deuda tienes en este lugar? ¿Qué secreto viste y nunca contaste? La Sala de Prensa Donde la verdad se manipula. Preguntas: ¿Qué periodista te odia? ¿Qué rumor sobre ti es cierto? La Caravana del Equipo Hogar temporal, nido de tensiones. Preguntas: ¿Quién duerme demasiado cerca de ti? ¿Qué conversación evitáis desde hace semanas? PNJ Recurrentes Lina Duarte, la Comentarista Siempre sabe más de lo que dice. ¿Qué secreto tuyo podría revelar en directo? Marco “El Tiburón” Valenti, el Patrocinador Sonrisa perfecta, alma dudosa. ¿Qué trato te ofreció que aún no has aceptado? Sombra, el Rey de las Carreras Ilegales Nunca aparece sin motivo. ¿Qué te une a él que nadie debe saber? Yara, la Mecánica Fantasma Aparece cuando todo está perdido. ¿Qué le debes desde hace años?

Hoy vamos a explicar un poco más de cerca que es PBTA. La ficción manda Todo empieza en la ficción. No tiras para “ver si aciertas”, sino porque la ficción lo exige: cuando haces algo arriesgado, incierto o dramático, se dispara un movimiento. Los movimientos son el motor Los movimientos son frases del tipo: “Cuando haces X en la ficción, tira +Y y… pasa algo.” No eliges movimientos como acciones de menú. Actúas en la historia, y el movimiento se activa solo si encaja. Tiradas con 2d6 + bonificadores Los resultados tienen tres rangos: Resultado Significado 10+ Éxito completo. Consigues lo que querías. 7–9 Éxito parcial. Lo logras, pero con coste, complicación o elección difícil. 6- El MC hace un movimiento duro. La situación empeora, se complica o revela una verdad incómoda. El 7–9 es el corazón del drama PBTA: lo consigues, pero… Ese “pero” es donde vive la telenovela, el peligro, la intriga o la épica, según el juego. El MC no prepara tramas cerradas El MC no escribe una historia. En su lugar: Presenta situaciones cargadas de tensión. Hace preguntas y usa las respuestas. Deja que los personajes brillen. Hace avanzar el mundo con sus propios movimientos. El MC también tiene movimientos No tira dados. Cuando el MC actúa, lo hace mediante movimientos como: Mostrar una amenaza. Revelar una verdad dura. Separar a los personajes. Ponerlos en un aprieto. Ofrecer una oportunidad… con un coste. Estos movimientos se disparan cuando los jugadores fallan, cuando miran al MC para saber qué pasa o cuando la ficción lo pide. ¿Cómo se juega una escena típica? El jugador describe lo que hace su personaje. El MC describe cómo responde el mundo. Si la acción es arriesgada → se activa un movimiento. El jugador tira 2d6 haciéndose pregunta y sumando bonificadores si los tuviere. El resultado genera una consecuencia que cambia la ficción. La ficción renovada lleva a nuevas decisiones y nuevos movimientos. Es un ciclo continuo de ficción → movimiento → consecuencia → ficción. ¿Qué hace que PBTA sea tan especial? La historia avanza incluso cuando fallas. Las reglas están diseñadas para reforzar el tono del juego. Los personajes son competentes, pero siempre vulnerables a la ficción. El drama surge de las decisiones, no de optimizar números. La mesa crea la historia en conjunto, sin guion preestablecido. La música que se escucha al principio es The Edge de Swoop.

Si alguna vez soñaste con protagonizar los enredos, amores imposibles y traiciones dignas de la mejor telenovela, Pasión de las Pasiones es el juego de rol que estabas esperando. Creado por Brandon Leon-Gambetta y publicado por Shadowlands Ediciones y Magpie Games, este juego lleva la intensidad de las telenovelas latinas directamente a tu mesa de juego. ¿De qué trata el juego? En Pasión de las Pasiones, los jugadores no interpretan a actores, directores ni al equipo de cámara: son los protagonistas de la historia. Inspirado en clásicos como Montaña en Pasión de Gavilanes o Cuna de Lobos, los jugadores encarnan personajes cargados de deseos, secretos, pasiones y conflictos intensos. Cada partida promete amor, traición, confrontaciones dramáticas y giros inesperados, todo envuelto en el glamour y el drama de las telenovelas más icónicas. Cómo se juega El juego utiliza un sistema Powered by the Apocalypse (PbtA): Los personajes se dividen en arquetipos con movimientos y habilidades especiales que definen cómo interactúan con la historia. Las acciones se resuelven con 2 dados de seis caras, influenciados por las habilidades del personaje y las circunstancias narrativas. Los libretos de reparto facilitan encarnar clichés perfectamente reconocibles, desde el gemelo intrigante hasta la empleada luchadora por amor, o la belleza que conquista al caballero. Cada movimiento de tu arquetipo potencia la historia, creando un flujo continuo de emoción y drama. Escenarios y partidas Para maximizar la experiencia, el juego ofrece varios escenarios inspirados en las telenovelas más conocidas: La Rosa Querida: un resort vacacional de alto standing. La Náutica de El sabor del amor: un restaurante con secretos y conflictos.Cada escenario permite jugar tanto historias cortas como series extensas, incluyendo la metahistoria de la telenovela y la vida de los personajes que han desaparecido o “muerto” y vuelven con giros impactantes. Complementos Baraja de personajes: añade secundarios memorables con movimientos únicos y escenas adicionales. Set de dados de Pasión de las Pasiones: dos dados de seis caras con el logo del juego para partidas más coloridas. Suplemento Tormentas del corazón: 9 libretos extra y 10 nuevos escenarios con reglas alternativas y modos de juego especiales, desde melodramas adolescentes hasta romances sobrenaturales. Sobre el autor Brandon Leon-Gambetta creció viendo telenovelas y ha dedicado su carrera al diseño de juegos de rol narrativos. Además de Pasión de las Pasiones, ha trabajado en proyectos como Protean City, Stop, Hack & Roll y GIF Tank, convirtiéndose en un referente en juegos que combinan narrativas ricas con mecánicas innovadoras.

On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan discuss the film Shadowlands before introducing Michael Ward. C.S. Lewis’s writings bring the great questions of the Christian faith to life. Through his imaginative and invigorating style, Lewis answers these questions in ways that are compelling to those outside Christianity and energizing to those within the Christian faith. The Problem of Pain and A Grief Observed offer two very different approaches to suffering. In the former, Lewis addresses the intellectual problem raised by the existence of pain in a world created by a good and all-powerful God; and, in the latter, he presents a deeply personal account of his own suffering.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, we take a look at permafree as a marketing strategy for indie authors, and examine if it still works. I also take a look at advertising results for August 2025. This coupon code will get you 25% off the ebooks in my Cloak Mage series at my Payhip store: FALLMAGE25 The coupon code is valid through September 22, 2025. So if you need a new ebook this fall, we've got you covered! TRANSCRIPT 00:00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 268 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is September 12th, 2025, and today I'm looking at whether or not Permafree is still an effective strategy for indie authors. As a related topic, we'll also take a look at how my ads performed in [August] 2025, and we'll also have a Question of the Week this week. But first, let's start with Coupon of the Week. So for Coupon of the Week to celebrate the fact that I'm working on Cloak Mage again, this coupon code will get you 25% off the ebooks in the Cloak Mage series at my Payhip store, and that is FALLMAGE25. And as always, the coupon code and links to my store will be available in the show notes. This coupon code is valid through September 22nd, 2025. So if you need a new ebook for this fall, we have got you covered. Now for an update on my current writing and audiobook projects. I'm about 82% of the way through the first round of edits for Blade of Flames, the first book in my new epic fantasy series called Blades of Ruin. If all goes well, that will be out before the end of September, and if you want to see what the cover art will look like, it's on my website and my social pages right now. I'm also 12,000 words into Cloak of Worlds, the aforementioned return to the Cloak Mage series, and that will be my main project once Blade of Flames comes out. In audiobook news, recording is done for both Shield of Power (as narrated by Brad Wills) and Ghost in the Siege (as narrated by Hollis McCarthy). They're both going through processing right now. As of this recording, I believe you can get Shield of Power on Google Play, Kobo, and my Payhip Store. The other links and the other links for Ghost in the Siege should be coming up before too much longer, hopefully before the end of the month. So that is where I'm at with my current writing and publishing projects. 00:02:00 Question of the Week [Question of the Week was posted on September 10, 2025] Now It's time for Question of the Week, which is intended for enjoyable discussions of interesting topics. This week's question, do you dislike guns showing up in fantasy novels? No wrong answers for opinions, obviously. The inspiration for this question was a blog post I saw where the writer was complaining about the increased number of guns in modern fantasy novels and how it shatters her suspension of disbelief, and she also found it an unpleasant topic because the ownership and regulation of firearms in the United States is a contentious topic and has been so for decades. And as you might expect, readers had a variety of opinions on this question. Adrian says: Nope. Fantasy is basically, in my humble opinion, the swords and sorcery type of genre. Yes to old fashioned weapons like bows and arrows, javelins, and trebuchets, et cetera, but definite no to guns (of any type), tanks, airplanes, et cetera. Jonathan D. says: In the right setting, firearms are fine in fantasy books. Men in Arms by Terry Pratchett and the Rigante Series by David Gemmell are great examples of firearms in fantasy done well. Wilson says: It depends on your definition of a gun because an energy rifle powered by a soulstone would be something that would fit into Andomhaim. Though I have to say that is not something I will ever write in an Andomhaim book. Mary says: Steampunk and suchlike genres are developing how to work with technology and fantasy, and I approve when it's done right. I particularly like what Moe Lane's doing in The Fermi Resolution. If you start with the first published book, Frozen Dreams, which is a post-apocalyptic North America high fantasy, hard boiled detective novel, it goes into how every wizard can make your own ammo blow up on you and the consequences. Ioana says: Mrs. World Burner should have lots of guns. #HailToTheHighQueen #SingularitySucks Jason says: Handheld firearms were first used in the West in the 1330s, so they actually predate full plate armor by about a hundred years. That said, the gun shape we're used to came about in the late 1400s. I'm perfectly fine with firearms and fantasy novels provided they're (more or less) what we expect in a medieval setting. Jesse says: Never bothers me as long as long as the stage of weapon development reasonably lines up with the field of the science in said fantasy world. Someone walking around with laser sights in a medieval hamlet would break it for me a bit. Michael says: I remember much of video games (and at least one famous Dungeons and Dragons scenario, possibly two) back in the ‘80s had the “players stumble across a crashed starship trope” where you could end up with power armor and ray guns in a fantasy settings, which would be perceived as magic. I like that kind of cross genre gun introduction more than gunpowder becoming commonplace, I think. The video games he's referring to are Heroes of Might and Magic 6 and 7, both of which I played back in the day and are quite good. Juana says: My suspension of disbelief gets knocked out more by dialogue than guns. Jenny says: Guns aren't as bad as cell phones, in my opinion, or the magical equivalent of a cell phone that is not even trying to be anything but a cell phone. What's interesting is if you read a book that is determinedly set in the 1980s, like the Kinsey Millhone Mysteries by Sue Grafton are all determinedly set in Los Angeles in the 1980s, which is way pre-cellphone and how much extra work the protagonist has to do in investigating since Google doesn't immediately bring everything to her fingertips. Jimmy says: Fantasy doesn't require medieval setting, nor does it require swords. If you study medieval warfare, then you'll notice two things. One, only the rich have swords. Two, it is a secondary or tertiary weapon. Swords are notoriously weak. They break often. The use of guns really depends more on the story's background than it does on the genre. Bonnie says: I agree, they're okay, depending on the time period/environment involved. There's no way that they would be okay with Caina or Ridmark! Cheryl says: Nadia needs guns. I guess it depends on the fantasy topic being written. John says, I'm kind of into Flintlock fantasy, e.g. Powdermage series, et cetera. Urban fantasy also requires firearms. My favorite historical European period is really the “Knights and Guns” era, which would be the early modern period. Todd says: A deeper question is how do guns fit into the culture? In the Cloak Games/Cloak Mage universe, there are ongoing wars, so gun use and safety is taught in schools and veterans are expected to maintain proficiency against the Shadowlands incursion. There's a balance there, and the punishment for criminal misuse includes slogging and loss of freedom, if not execution. So while I think the amount of firearms in Nadia's world is a bit over the top, I can see it making sense culturally and contextually. In a different culture, it may or may not make sense. In a classic medieval setting, it wouldn't make sense. Conversely, in early 1800s Western America, a limited amount of firearms were to be expected. Every little house on the prairie would be expected to have a few rifles and perhaps a pistol or two. Setting, culture, and context all determine what the reader will find appropriate. And finally, Randy says: Depends on how they get there. Guardians of the Flame series had college kids reinvent them, which made sense, and their opponents figured out their own version. When one side has them and the other is too dumb to steal/capture some and figure them out, then yes, it doesn't work. So as you can see, we had quite a range of opinions there. For myself, I really have no strong feelings about it one way or the other. I do think guns are best suited to urban fantasy environments. In Cloak Games and Cloak Mage, as several commentaries mentioned, Nadia goes through a lot of guns. Granted, my favorite type of fantasy is what it's called basic fantasy or generic fantasy where a barbarian, a dwarf, an elf, and a wizard go to a dungeon and kill orcs and monsters. Firearms would definitely be out of place in that sort of setting. That said, I think guns and fantasy is like any other story trope and just needs to be done well to be enjoyable. I suppose it's a matter of properly setting the table for reader expectations. Like if you have a medieval style of fantasy world like Half-Elven Thief, it'd be weird to have guns suddenly show up. But if you create a setting that's an analog for 1880s America, but with wizards, then guns wouldn't be out of place. So that is it for Question of the Week. Thanks to everyone who commented and left insightful and interesting comments. 00:07:40 Advertising Results for August 2025 [Prices mentioned are USD] Now let's go on to the first of our interrelated main topics, my advertising results for last month, which would be August 2025. I haven't done an ad results roundup for a couple months, partly because it's been a really busy summer and partly because I've been adjusting some things and waiting to see the results. I'll explain more later, but the short version is that I'm losing confidence in the effectiveness of Facebook ads for selling books. But first, let's see some advertising results for August 2025. Let's start with Facebook ads where I advertise the Ghosts, Cloak Games/Cloak Mage, and the Frostborn series. The Ghosts, I got back $8.40 for every dollar spent, with 6% of the profit coming from the audiobooks, which was really nice. This one was a bit of anomaly because Ghost in the Siege did a lot of heavy lifting for this. For Cloak Games/Cloak Mage, I got back $2.70 for every dollar spent, with 12% of the revenue coming from the audiobooks. And for Frostborn, I got back $2.83 for every dollar spent, with 30% of the revenue coming from the audiobooks. Now on to Amazon ads. Remember, for an Amazon ad to be profitable, it needs to generate at least one sale/complete KU readthrough every six to eight clicks. So for Demonsouled Omnibus One, I got $5 back for every $1 spent, with a sale for every 0.82 clicks, which was really good. For Half-Elven Thief, I got back $1.22 for every dollar spent, with a sale for every 2.47 clicks. And for Dragonskull Omnibus One, I got back $28.75 for every dollar spent, with 65% of the profit coming from the audiobook, with a sale for every 0.11 clicks. Now, obviously these numbers require some explanation. The profit margin on Half-Elven Thief was narrow, but the entire series made up for it, so that's okay and it will improve when I start writing more books in the series later this year. In fact, I think I'm going to start writing the fifth one in October, if all goes well. The numbers for Dragonskull Omnibus One were so high because the ebook is $0.99, but the audiobook brings in a lot more than the ebook, something like 10 times, no, 20 times more than the ebook. BookBub ads do quite well with Google Play and Barnes and Noble. The numbers are too long to quote here, but they did quite well. All that said, the reason I'm losing confidence in Facebook ads is a combination of the loss of granular targeting and over-reliance on AI targeting. One of the paradoxes of online advertising is that the smaller and more granular your audience, the more likely your ad is to convert to sales. Narrow, targeted advertising is so much better than broad targeting. Unfortunately, Facebook has been slowly removing the more granular targeting options in favor of broader categories that don't work as well. Like you used to be able to target dozens of fantasy authors as interests for Facebook users. Now, you can only target epic fantasy and maybe J.R.R. Tolkien. In fact, I confirmed this just this morning, but you can't even target Brandon Sanderson as an interest, and he's probably the most popular epic fantasy author publishing today. To take the place of more granular targeting, Facebook has introduced AI assisted targeting, which they call Advantage Plus. Now, there's no beating around the bush. Advantage Plus isn't very good. It can garner a reasonable number of clicks on an ad, but those clicks don't convert to sales. Even with ads that don't use Advantage, Facebook still sneaks it in. So the effectiveness of Facebook ads has been in decline. Like I turned off the Facebook ads for the Demonsouled series entirely in August, and my results actually improved a good bit. So I'm going to test another series with no Facebook ads for September, and we'll see how much the results vary. Specifically, I think I'll turn off Facebook ads for Cloak Games/Cloak Mage, leave them on for Frostborn, and see if it makes any difference, and if it does make a difference, it will be time to reevaluate some advertising strategies. On the plus side, I didn't lose any money at any of my ads this month and they all turned a profit, and as always, thank you to everyone who was reading and listening to ebooks and audiobooks. 00:11:41 Does Permafree Still Work For Indie Authors? Now on to the other half of our main topic: Does Permafree still work for indie authors? One of the perennial debates in Indie Author Land is whether or not making the first book in your series free still works as a marketing tactic or not. Now, at this point, I've been doing this for over 14 years, and I have a lot of different series and quite a few different ones with free first books in the series. I thought it might be interesting to dig into the sales data and see what percentage of people who downloaded the first book went onto the second book and then the final book in the series. A few caveats and conditions: first, this is only for 2024 and the first half of 2025, since I wanted a set time sample for the data. Additionally, this is also useful for showing the conversion rate on a finished series that hasn't had a new book in years, since the final book in the Frostborn series came out in 2017, which was eight years ago at this point. Second, it will only apply to a series whose first books were free for that entire time period. Third, when I talk about conversion rates, I mean what percentage of free downloads translated into sales. For example, if Book One had a hundred free downloads and then 12 sales of Book Two and nine sales of the final book, that means 12% of people went onto the second book and then 9% on to the final book. So we had a conversion rate of 12% from the first free book to the paid second book, and then a conversion rate of 9% from the free first book to the final book in the series. So with all that in mind, let's take a look at permafree conversion rates for some of my series in 2024 and 2025. For The Ghosts, 13.47% went to the second book, and 12.72% went on to the final book. For Frostborn, 13% went to the second book and 12.93% to the final book. For Sevenfold Sword, 22.93% went to the second book and 22.81% on to the final book. For Cloak Games, 11.85% went on to the second book, and 11.67% to the final book. Silent Order, 14.64% went on to the second book, and 14.54% went to the final book. For The Tower of Endless Worlds, 17.46% went to the second book, and 17.46% went onto the final book. So I think there are a couple of conclusions we can draw from this. First, making the first book in a series permafree remains a viable marketing strategy. It doesn't usually result in dramatic spikes of sales, but instead it is good at generating more of a steady trickle. Second, anything you can do to increase the number of downloads of your free books will likely increase the sales of the paid books later in the series. That said, there are caveats. You want methods to increase the free downloads to people that might conceivably be interested in buying the books. Targeted advertising can be an effective way to do this. What's not effective is using bot farms or help from a bunch of scammers to generate a big download in free books. At best, you'll generate a bunch of downloads that won't convert, and at worst ebook platforms will detect suspicious activity and either delist your free ebook or suspend your account. Third, this strategy works even with books you don't promote very often. For example, I don't bash on the Tower of Endless Worlds because for some people it's their favorite book of mine. But in all candor, I do think it's one of my weaker books. I was trying to do something with urban fantasy I don't think I had the skills to do until Cloak Games, which was like 12 years later. So I don't really promote it, save that I made the first book in the series free a long time ago and kept it that way. It's still 17% of the people who downloaded the first book continued onto the final one. Fourth, this strategy does require some patience. It can take a while for people to read through a series. It can also take a while for a free book to get traction. Fifth, I at times hesitate to recommend this because saying write five books and make the first one free is easy to say, but it's a lot of work to do. For many new writers, getting the first book done and out into the world is a monumental challenge, then telling them to do it three or four more times and then to make the first book free does seem like a big ask, but it does work (sometimes slowly), but it does work. So that's it for this week. Thank you for listening to The Pulp Writer Show. I hope you found the show useful.
