Hi everyone,

Just a quick update on progress with the first Ordinem novel, "The King's Pride".

I am nearing the 300 page mark and estimate that the total length of this dramatic story will be around 600 pages. This story centres around the drama of the characters princess Isolde of Valamire and the knight Sir Verna. They have an affair under her father the king's nose, but it is no ordinary love story as mystical tragedy soon follows.

I am now at the point where I am looking for a publisher or an agent to help complete, promote and distribute the novel. If you, or anyone you know, has contacts in the publishing industry that may be interested in this novel then please let them know, or please do message me about them at Contact Ordinem.

Thanks,

John

Hi Everyone

Sorry I have been so quiet recently. I have been thinking about the best ways to share Ordinem with you. There are of course adventures and a compendium (see Publications), and there more articles, short stories and mini adventures on Patreon.

However, I am keen to tell you that I have started work on a series of novels set on the continent of Scionos. This will take a lot of my time, but when the first one is completed it will uncover an inspiring journey into the world of Ordinem. I look forward to completing this so you can enjoy more of this world.

Hi.

Gamester on Patreon now has a shop. The first product available is the Ordinem compendium "The Continent of Scionos, 1268".

Just a quick update about the Kickstarter campaign.

Unfortunately the Kickstarter campaign has not proved to be a big success. I have learned a lot about how to run such campaigns, including ensuring that I have a much larger following before starting a campaign, and having benefactors that have agreed ahead of time to make pledges. Also, it is important to structure rewards carefully, providing specific products for each reward tier as well as for add-ons. It is also really important to have a great graphic artist on side as well.

Perhaps in the future I can give it another try, though your support on social media is not just appreciated but vital to the success of a Kickstarter campaign.

Thank you.

The Kickstarter campaign has revealed that there is a one-shot adventure in development, that Kickstarters will be able to get their hands on before the public release.

There are in fact two adventures well into development, and many other ideas waiting to be developed. The other adventure is the sequel to the adventure "The Ghost Watcher", and takes the players on a journey deeper into The Bad Lands, to find out the truth of what the feared Blood Eaters are.

The Ordinem Kickstarter fundraiser is about to go live.

Hi. The Ordinem website is now live.

Soon adventures and other source books set in this campaign world will start to be published.

The Ordinem website is in development. It will draw together all resources for this campaign world, including where to obtain and purchase content, as well as how to get the best from this fantasy role playing world.
