Cuckoo's Nest Wiki

Good Writing and GMing Forum

This is a good place to impart advice and learn how to improve your adventure-writing skills. Your first port of call should be The Cuckoo's Nest Games Master's Guide available from the main webpages at http://www.thecuckoosnest.co.uk/features/CNGMGuide.pdf∞ It gives excellent advice for writing and running LARP events, so budding GMs, you read this!

However, for more discussion and tips on writing events, look at the pages below.
- Dramatis Personae - Templates for friends and foes.
- Quick Tips for Linears
- Quick Tips for Freeforms
- Solutions to Adventure Breakers
- Current parties, GMs and characters
- The Adventure Vault A collection of past adventures ran by various GMs.
- The New World Adventure Vault A collection of adventure from the new Silentian Empire World.
- GM Tools - A list of world-specific GM tools (Some pages restricted to GroupGM only, as they may contain plot information not available to the player base as a whole)

Here is a page which links to various archived message board threads on the subject of GMing or writing for LARP: Threads On Writing And Gming∞

The in character forums are used by some parties as a means of interactive story-telling. Read some Quick Tips for Interactive Storytelling. (I'll be moving these to the Wikka for more permanent storage soon - Herald)
