If you wish to participate, put a link to your blog in the comments of this post, I will create a separate blogroll specifically for EAD2013. Multiple entries will be allowed, however remember, that more is not always better, entries should be really impressive, a single well written article will beat out multiple poorly written articles. Note also, that only 1 prize will be awarded per person, so even if you enter 5 amazing pieces, you can still only win 1 prize. Though the community will love it, and the Judges will see it as well.
(I'm still looking for additional sponsors as well, so if you'd like your name attached to this fun project, something as little as a $5 gift certificate prize would be a welcome addition. Contact me at the email address above.)
EDIT: If you're going to participate and just send your entry in, PLEASE still let me know so I can keep track of how many people are participating. It may help in getting additional sponsors.

Awesome Brian, Pick your best ones to enter. I'll go ahead and put you on the blog list.
ReplyDeleteAs my friend and I have no blog, we are submitting to you our entry for the Earthdawn Appreciation day 2013.
ReplyDeleteYears ago Redbrick LLC enacted an “Open Call” for new Legends & new Heroes as per the Earthdawn original line title Legends of Earthdawn, where the Legend was a story and the supplemental chapter laid out the Thread item, or adventure idea and laid out the game mechanics for it.
We submitted the Legend, but the “Open Call” was continuously back-burnered and eventually scrapped.
We even went so far as to record the legend to audio, complete with music another friend composed, and had Redbrick post a sample of it on the message board.
So once again, we submit to you the “Legend of Rune & Songblade”… Both written and audio versions...
