I\’ve signed up to run 2 games of unWritten at OrCon.\n\nThe first one is called \’Being Christopher Kubasik\’ Where in we\’ll play a game where you can go into CK\’s head and… Well just go watch the movie, if you need more explanation. \n\nThe second game is \’Denoument\’ In it we\’ll play heroes that have just finished their epic quest, and must now learn to deal with the ramifications of their actions…\n\nI\’ll be running 2 more game, but I haven\’t figured out what they\’ll be yet!

Working on a rewritten unWritten

I’m in the process of rewriting unWritten in a way so that I can podcast its chapters. It won’t be a complete reading of the text, but more of a how-to.

I’d like to have different people guest host it in the different podcasts. The rewriting is also intended to make it accessible to high school teachers. I want this game to be used by HS teachers as a way of teaching kids how to tell, organize, and understand stories. Hopefully, it will be clear that this is foundational way of telling stories, not absolute. Once you understand what goes into a story you can then branch off into Bukowski, Dick, or Thompson land.

Wish me luck!

Writing my first unWritten story

Well, I took that game that I transcribed a few months a go and wrote it up as a story. I’m pretty excited about it. After I have it edited, I’ll post it here and I’m going to podcast it. I’d love to know what you think when it’s posted.
