[Announcement] US PBM/turn-based magazine in the works ...

Right now MindShift Design is developing a new primarily-based US turn-based mag (print
and web) that we hope to get launched properly after September (after my wife and I
have our new baby). We plan for it to be a regular monthly publication, although it
will most likely start out bi-monthly - that will depend upon reception of it by
subscribers. We've been trying to get access to the subscribers list of PBM Report and
Paper Mayhem as well to start building a solid base for the magazine. The magazine
concept is developing well at the moment and we plan for it to up and running in a
couple of months. We're doing all the legwork now to make sure that once we get it up
and running, it will stay up and running.

We're looking for someone to write an article each issue on game development and the
challenges of game development; what it takes, how you do it, how problems such as fee
structure or game balance are designed and implemented etc etc. This will be a paying
gig, and the article needs to be around 1000-200 words per issue. If anyone is
seriously interested in taking on a regular monthly work piece, then drop me a line at
the PBMMAG@MINDSHIFTDESIGN.COM.

The mag will also have other articles in it focusing on other elements of turn-based
games (such as reviews of games, topic articles, etc) and we'll be looking for people
to write articles on the same basis. For more information, drop me a line at the same
email address. There's a small but growing list of article topics we're going to be
looking for, and I'll supply them to anyone with a genuine interest in working with us
on this. These articles will be paying gigs as well. We'll tell you how much once you
contact us <g>.

Once we get the magazine up and running, the email address will, of course, change <g>.
