Roll For Success: Surviving and selling as an indie ttrpg creator

By Malcolm Harris

You made the game. Congratulations.
Now what?

Think making tabletop RPGs is just rolling dice, writing cool rules, and waiting for fans to appear? Cute. Roll for Success is the tough-love, laugh-through-the-pain guide for indie TTRPG creators who want to finish the book, find the audience, and maybe even make money without losing their soul.

Drawing on decades of publishing games, comics, novels, and strange new worlds, Malcolm Harris shares the lessons that helped him build a thriving creator catalog across DriveThruRPG, conventions, Amazon, and beyond. This is not theory from the sidelines. It is advice from someone who has worked the table, built the brand, tested the products, and learned how to turn passion into momentum.

Part pep talk, part warning label, part battle plan, this book is for creators ready to stop dreaming, start shipping, and roll smarter. Grab some dice, pull up a chair, and get to work.Put down the dice. Pick up this book.

and go make money.
