Hello all,

I have an article about writer/LARPer Jim Butcher up on Book Beast today ( bit.ly/4s4cd ), and I thought folks might be interested in it.

Butcher is the author of the Harry Dresden books as well as the Codex Alera, and I got him to talk about how LARP informs his writing.

Best,

Lizzie S.

Plus his books, while fun, are too fast of a read for me to justify the cost of a hardcover.

Libraries ftw!

Back on topic... So apparently the author gets his reference material for action scenes in a best-selling novel series... from playing in a boffer LARP.

Now THAT is cool.
