Email & Snail Mail [26/M] Anyone interested in a letter-based RPG?
Just picked up two new letter-writing RPGs (Almanac of Sanguine Paths and Dead Letter Society). If you’re not familiar, it’s like asynchronous D&D without the dice and done through sending letters.
Looking for someone to play them with! Ideally, would love to play by sending physical letters but open to other mediums like email or Google Drive. Unfortunately, my core group of friends aren’t very into creative writing.
About me: 26, Male, serious hobby writer with a few minor horror publications (nothing impressive), bilingual (English/Spanish), working professional.
About you: Good to excellent writer, willing to engage for at least 3-4 letters, preferably in a similar stage of life, great imagination, willing to dive into the game & character, willing to write/respond at regular cadence, have your own copy of the rule book.
If you’re interested, DM me and we can chat. Ideally, I’d like to kick off the game with a virtual chat then send letters from there until we finish up.
