Instead of a poll for this topic, (while they are nice, they often are either a popularity ranking list or a bone of contention when you omit someone's fav option), I would like people to chime in on where they place their books. Multiple locations or just the one place? Obviously, there are many options from hosting on your own web site exclusively, to listing it on any of the OneBookshelf sites (RPGNow, all the "DriveThru"s, etc.), DMs Guild, Tabletop Library, Open Gaming Store, Indie Press Revolution, Lulu, etc. Then there are the various print options, and even distribution to brick and mortar sites. As a quick reference, here are SOME* online venues for selling RPGs: I'm only just starting out, so my RPG books are all PDF and so far are only available on DriveThruRPG, but I have been considering listing on Tabletop Library and the Open Gaming Store as well. Where do you list your wares and why? What places did I omit? Where is a great place to sell, and why? Where would you NEVER place your stuff, and why? *I make no claim to knowing every conceivable place one could place their material for sale.

Thanks for that. I thought though that RPGNow is now fused or combined with (in some way) with DriveThruRPG... I'm not sure about the details but I read recently that basically if you publish to one you are in effect publishing to the other. Anyone know anything more about that? Or did I get it wrong? Thanks for the list there. Very good.

Thanks for the list there. Very good. I just checked, and you are correct. I guess, regardless of the web page appearance and URL, what you're really doing is publishing on OneBookshelf. I'll adjust the post above.

This might be of help as well... you can follow the leads and see where-all these RPGs are selling and extrapolate from there. Also, it helps perhaps to see what is at the top of the pile at this time to get an idea of what's likely to be popular... www.polygon.com/2017/7/5/15923872/best-tabletop-rpgs-2017

Because of the way the Dungeonworld Legacy System works, I can only sell a copy to people who have qualified and understand the idea behind it all.
DungeonDelversTwelve is ramping up to Kickstart in the next 12 months, but after that I expect to put it out on all the above.
