FOUR SECRET AUDITIONS... Fixer BlotterBabe must have exactly the right actors for a production that requires very specialized talent. The actors must not only be skilled, they need to have the right attitude and an ability to adapt to extraordinary circumstances. A Kiss to Die For: Kintsugi and Sartorial choose love over duty, but their respective families will do everything in their considerable power to stop them from being together. See How She Runs: Terrapin witnesses a murder and is handed a package destined for some important and lethal people. Now she is running for her life. Unrepairable: Landon and Liana love vexing megacorps for fun and profit with their Matrix show. Unfortunately, the megacorps always play dirty, and will do whatever's required to shut them down for good. The Kilimanjaro Run: Charlotte, Neema, and Elijah embark on an unexpected adventure that turns into a nightmare when they discover nothing is what it seems. They are left with no choice at all when choosing between the abhorrent and the right thing to do. FOR THE MOST DANGEROUS RUN OF ALL... Having auditioned thousands, BlotterBabe is out of time. It's come down to these few teenagers. Either they will save the day or lose it all... "Cons, lies, double-crosses, flat-out thievery-all the fun stuff. Auditions reads like that great first act of a heist movie. Everyone's showing off their particular set of skills while Brozek teases us with threads of what's to come." -New York Times bestseller Peter Clines, author of The Broken Room "Brozek spins a clever introduction into the world of Shadowrun in Auditions. It's perfect for newcomers, but also showcases shadows that have never been explored yet feel perfectly familiar." -Crystal Frasier, author of Pathfinder: Spiral of Bones

The rapid change in technology and how it permeates nearly everything is changing every facet of how we live, including how we interact with others What willrelationships look like in the complicated future of clones, uploaded intelligences, artificial brains, or body augmentation? What stories emerge when we acknowledge possibilities of new genders and ways of thinking aboutthem? The Reinvented Heart presents stories that complicate sex and gender by showing how shifting technology may affect social attitudes and practices, stories that include relationships withcommunities and social groups, stories that reinvent traditional romance tropes and recast them for the 21st century, and above all, stories that experiment, astonish, and entertain.

Let Brozek be your guide." - Chuck Wendig, game designer and author of 500 Ways to be a Better Writer "If you're going to make that leap, though, and come over to the freelance side to join us, don't go blind.

Read this book." - Matt Forbeck, game designer and author of Amortals and Vegas Knights "To those looking to save hours of field research into two highly specialized and hard-to-crack fields, Jennifer Brozek's pragmatic, down-to-earth advice serves as an essential clue-dispenser." - Robin D.

The first opportunity you should grab is this book. It will give you the information you need to decide whether you're dedicated enough to become a freelance RPG writer or anthology editor, and if you decide you are, then it will tell you how to go about it. Take Brozek's advice to heart. She knows what she's talking about." - Angel Leigh McCoy, writer for Guild Wars 2 and editor of Wily Writers Podcast
