The Tao of Rules Hacking is a walk-through of how I took a few different rules systems and smashed them together into something new and unique. It’s an essay on both game design and getting what you want out of a set of tabletop roleplaying rules. It’s a sort of practical extension and demonstration of the ROLPUNK Manifesto.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to my little ransom project, the Tao of Rules Hacking is now available as a tidy little PDF, with some new material not seen in the original blog posts, absolutely free. The next ransom project will be announced on this page tomorrow.

About Berin Kinsman
Hello, I’m Berin. I am a freelance writer, putting down words on things as varied as short stories, screenplays, recipes, productivity advice, and tabletop games. Those are all things that I love, and I enjoy working with and promoting fellow bloggers, writers, editors, and publishers who share those interests.
My other passion is working with groups that assist the poor and the homeless. This is my way of trying to be the change I’d like to see in the world, as well as paying it forward in honor of everyone who has ever helped me in large or small ways.
I currently live in Albuquerque, New Mexico with my wife, the incredibly talented artist, crafter and educator Katie Kinsman, and our small army of cats.
Congratulations and thank you!
