Hey everyone. I'm a novelist (over 40+ novels published by various publishers) and have one LitRPG novel out- EverRealm, which is the first in my Level Dead series. I will warn everyone that I do not write "hard" LitRPG and subscribe to the definition that LitRPG is simply where the characters are forced/immersed/trapped in some type of gaming environment and must follow the rules of the game to survive/live/thrive. That's it. What type of game makes no difference. Hell, it could be Candyland or Chutes & Ladders! As long as they are forced ot climb that ladder then I consider it LitRPG. Bam! Looking forward to chatting with folks. Cheers, Jake
Welcome! Funny you should mention definition. A few members are working on a loose one that works very well, I think. None of that hard and soft nonsense. https://litrpgforum.com/threads/whats-a-good-definition-of-litrpg.150/ We also have a LitRPG History forum with posts on Guardians of the Flame, Fighting Fantasy series, and other books that we think are forefathers of the genre. Sounds like you'll fit in well here.
LitRPG - Nerdy shit for Nerds. Geekdom of epic proportions. Not quite as Nerdy as D&D... but damn close.
