Freelancers & Fudge builds

I'm going to make up for not posting for two months by posting several days in a row.

I got some responses from potential freelancers concerning my announcement. This is a good thing. I'm not entirely ready to hand out writing assignments yet, but I hope to get there in a month or two. That's going to be tough… I'm probably going to need to sketch out a "bible" of the world to help convey all the important bits. And I'm going to have to work hard not to step on freelancer's creativity by saying, "The entire book you wrote is not in line with my vision of the world! Go back and revise!" It's going to be hard to convey a vision without a substantial amount of pre-written world material.

On the Fudge rules I'm going to write… I'm trying to decide whether to edit down the original 1995 edition document, or just start writing from scratch and put it all in my own words. I'm starting to think that'll be easier to do than editing down a document that has a whole bunch of stuff in it that I don't want, and really has a different tone than what I'm aiming for.
