Bleeding Play's PUSH 1 - A Must Read

First off, let me thank 6d6 Fireball for pointing out all those excellent blogs that are not in the RPG Blogger Network. Yesterday, I found a new blog ("One Thousand One") where the author Jonathan Walton seemed to echo my own sentiments about why we play these games in the first place. Then I did my usual and hoped over to Technorati to find out who has linked to Mr. Walton's blog and I discovered Bleeding Play. To quote from their site:

"Bleeding Play is a publishing imprint for free pen-and-paper roleplaying games and a portal linking to other free games on the web."

I read on, and soon discovered PUSH 1 and PUSH 2. Both of these publications are free to download, and offer up Amagi Games quality generic insight into how-to roleplay well, how to run a game, how to create an immersive story and player-to-player tension.

The complete PDF for PUSH 1 is available here. The online version only includes the first two articles, but the PDF has the full-issue.

Honestly, once I started reading Push 1 I could not stop until I was done. So, please jump over there and grab it. It's simply amazing stuff. I can't wait till the next issue is released.

In other news, Google recently acquired Feedburner.com - the RSS service I use for distributing my blog - and they have offered to migrate all of my RSS feeds over to the new Google Feedburner. It's a bit confusing, but I'm hopeful that this will go smoothly and I wont lose the 70 or so subscribers I have worked so hard to get... and to make matters worse... my 3-year old iMac exploded and the hard drive died - so, although I'm fortunate to have a full-service extended warranty, I won't have my system back and running until next week. I'll be on a borrowed laptop until then.
