The Navigator's
Notebook is a series of in-depth examinations of specific
adventure worlds, as reported upon by young people who have
ventured there themselves - and survived to tell the tale!
Seasoned adventurers (the grownup-types) usually refer
to these as game reviews and actual play reports.
Each
of these stirring reports includes commentary on the physics
and traditions of the realm - the rule system, as
some of those stuffy grownup-types would call them - and may
also contain details on the local flora, fauna, indigneous
peoples and creatures, and how to survive encounters with
any and all of the above.
If you
and your stalwart adventuring party would like to submit a
report for publication, please send your query via electronic
post to
to recieve guidelines and suggestions.

A Practical Guide to the Practical Guides: The Coastal Wizards and their Mirrorstone book imprint have released a series of Practical Guides
that cover an array of interesting topics - Wizardy, Monsters, Dragons,
Dragon Riding, Faeries, and Vampires. Each of them could be used as an
invitation to adventure. I explain how in my review. Origins
2007 Adventure Report: Your friend and narrator,
Dr. Awkward, hosted two events for young people at the 2007
Origins International Game Expo in Columbus, Ohio. One
excursion was to the realm of cartoons with the TOON
RPG, and the other took the adventurers into the world of
the little people with the Faery's
Tale RPG. The events were such a grand success that several
more are planned for next year's Game Fair. Click
here to read a full report of the events, and if you plan
to attend Origins 2008, be sure to look for me there!
