My name is David Glass, and I'm a freelance cartographer and editor in the tabletop roleplaying game community. This is my first project on Crowdfundr, but my fourth crowdfunding zine following Zine-o-Map3 on Indiegogo as part of Zine Month (ZiMo) 2022, and Zine-o-Maps on Kickstarter as part of Zine Quest 3 in 2021.
ZVM: Zine-o-Map vs. Mini-AdventureThis year, ZVM: Zine-o-Map vs Mini-Adventure comprises 2 books.
That's 35 maps (37 if you want to count the covers) for your roleplaying adventures, done in an OSR-style. Book 2 includes:

The mini-adventures are written by a team of TTRPG designers and writers who have previously collaborated as creator and contributors to going rogue 2e and Zine Month 2022 project I Have the High Ground :
-
Jess Levine is an author, game designer, kindergarten teacher, and communist organizer. Her diverse creative interests are united by one consistent theme: lesbians. She resides in Philadelphia, on the occupied land of the Lenni Lenape people. She is the creator of games like going rogue 2e and the Zine Month 2022 game I Have the High Ground . Her fiction has appeared in Clarkesworld , while her music and non-fiction writing have been featured in the magazines Blood Knife and Seize the Press . You can find Jess on Twitter as @jessfromonline , on cohost as the same, and all her work on her website .
- Rhiannon Daly is a writer, musician, and game designer. Her previous games work includes her science fiction horror text game Ghost Moth and developmental playtesting on I Have the High Ground and going rogue 2e. You can find her games at scyphozoan.itch.io and find her on cohost as @rhiannon.
-
satah is a musician, writer, and occasional podcast producer from ontario, canada. they release music as people you meet outside of bars and piloting the animal . they contributed as a design consultant on I Have the High Ground and going rogue 2e & are gingerly working on pulling some of their other game design irons out of the fire but they're like super hot (from the fire) so it's slow going. you can find them on cohost @sitcom, on twitter @nuditea, and more direct links to their work at gaygothvibes.online .

Licensing
All maps in Book 1 are released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license, so you are more than welcome to use them in any commercial works you produce. The Creator perk includes the maps as 300dpi PNG and TIFF files to make this easier.
The copyright to the mini-adventures is held by the author, so those are not included in the Creator perk, and can't be used in other works.
Shipping
Continuing the tradition from previous years, the back covers are set up to handle address labels, so the books will be sticker-sealed shut and sent through the mail naked.
International supporters and those in the US who desire more safety for their zine should select one of the envelope options that include additional shipping to account for the additional postage and envelope.
Rewards
This year's rewards have been bundled into the 3 featured items at the top of the list to the right.
- The digital bundle includes both books as PDFs distributed through DriveThruRPG
- The physical bundle includes both physical books (and PDFs of both books)
- The creator bundle includes both physical books, PDFs of both books, and the individual map files in PNG and TIFF formats
If you'd rather pick up the individual books, or if you want anything from previous campaigns, those items are also available in the very long list of items on the right. Unfortunately, Crowdfundr doesn't currently provide a way to present the rewards other than one big list. I've organized things from newest to oldest, but that's about all I can do.

Stretch Goals
This year's stretch goals all go toward increasing the pay for the amazing writers of the mini-adventures.
$1250 - Increase to $.06/word - Unlocked!
$1500 - Increase to $.07/word - Unlocked!
$1750 - Increase to $.08/word - Unlocked!
$2000 - Increase to $.09/word - Unlocked!
$2250 - Increase to $.10/word - close enough - Unlocked!
$2500 - Increase to $.11/word
Work Ahead
This year's zine is a bit more complicated than previous years'. All the maps are completed and the first drafts of the adventures are written, but revision and layout will continue throughout the campaign. The authors are doing amazing work and are on track to have all the work done before the campaign ends, so I don't anticipate any delays with fulfillment, but more transparency is better than less.
