Exciting! Any chance I can get you back on Roleplay Rescue to help promote this book?

Very much looking forward to this! One question that came to mind: Will this be mostly text-based and thus e-reader friendly, or will it contain graphics, diagrams and other elements that might be better experienced in print or some other format?

Great question! There are a couple of maps and a few diagrams in the section on node-based scenario design. But the vast majority of the book is text-based, so I think you'll be just fine with an e-book.
