I can handle that stuff. My biggest issue is where to put what. Do I do the legal stuff on the credit page, followed by the table of contents, then the intro story, then ???, then profit?
What's the acceptable order of inclusion for all the setting information? Or is there one particular formula?
My belief is that you put the information in the order that a player or game master would access it,leading to the most common information towards the front of the book, and the rarest or least necessary in the back. Make it read organically - however is needed for your setting, and it's correct.
You make it sound like such simple good sense, yet I never even considered that approach. Once I'm done mentally kicking my cerebellum, I think I'm going to write up a short list of the different book sections and see which order feels smoothest. Thank you!
