Poll #364: Adventures in Chapbook Style or Traditional?
🕑 Added 2023-08-09 00:49:30 +0000 UTCAs I'm digging in on these adventures set in the Witchfinder's Grimoire universe, I wonder which style I should write the adventure in. Typically, we use a standard modern style of dressing the adventure content, using full-color images, etc. However, Witchfinder's Grimoire is inspired by 17th-century New England. During this time, chapbooks were popular. These small books were black and white and usually written for children's entertainment or to share religious ideals. Below is a sample of what this looks like.
I would update it some for modern audiences, of course, adding in headers and imagery where necessary. Additionally, I can create printed versions of these books, which I can sell for as low as $9 + shipping.
Which option do you like best?

Chapbook is just the name of the style. They were traditionally just letter-sized pages folded in half. If I do the chapbook styles, I won't make them in color, but the inevitable larger grimoire will be color.

I don't understand. Chapbooks like chapters? Otherwise my mind is stuck trying to understand the smaller form factor getting equivalent content/progress/adventure. All my confusion aside I vote for it your style is good so this will be good. Would be nice to have some form of color option even if it's pdf/dm only

As long as we get to keep the color images in pdf at least, because I really like them
