This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

DISCLAIMER: I do *NOT* work for Exile as an employee, but have done (and will continue to do) freelance writing and game demonstrations for them.



Exile Game Studio is looking for a few good writers!

Exile Game Studio is currently seeking talented writers to collaborate on upcoming roleplaying game products. This is an opportunity to work for a fast-growing and award-winning independent game company and help create new content for our games.

Specific qualities we seek in prospective writers include:

* Ability to write clear, correct, concise, and exciting prose
* Capacity to fill wordcount and meet deadlines
* Willingness to collaborate with others and make revisions based on specific feedback
* Familiarity with Ubiquity Roleplaying System™ and Hollow Earth Expedition RPG™
* Creativity and imagination in working with new game mechanics and setting material

If you are interested in writing for us, please submit a sample of your work following these guidelines:

Write a short scene for an adventure scenario in which the player characters encounter one or more of the following:

a) members of a secret society
b) a pack of dinosaurs
c) Hollow Earth natives

This encounter need not involve combat, but it should be dramatic and interesting. Be sure to:

* Establish the setting for the scene
* Follow the structure of published Hollow Earth adventure scenarios
* Introduce one game mechanic (such as a new rule, Talent, artifact, creature, etc) for use in this scene
* Keep the length under 1000 words
* Include your name and contact information in the heading

Please send submissions to submissions@exilegames.com with "EXILE WRITING SAMPLE" in the subject line.
