INTER*ACTION 1 goes to print on Thursday, and will be out by the
end of May. I'll be plugging it ad nauseam nearer the time in
this and other related newsgroups but, well... if you're
interested in the history and dynamics of interactive fiction,
story-telling systems and all aspects of role-play, including but
not limited to RPGs, then you'll probably enjoy reading it.
