How to Create a Species/Race

Me too... I'm on his mailing list and was tempted, for a few seconds. :sneaky:
But I haven't even read his books yet - the reviews have been quite divided.
What I have seen hasn't blown me over, at least not yet.
 
Where have you seen reviews?
 
Ellefson has just released a $1 tip collection for world building:
From his best selling series, The Art of World Building, author Randy Ellefson has collected some of his best advice from every chapter in small, bite-sized tips.

Note that these are mostly one paragraph long and collected from his previous works.
 
Randy Ellefson's Art of Worldbuilding 3: Cultures and Beyond is now available for the princely sum of free:
Written to help fantasy and science fiction storytellers, game designers, gamers, and hobbyists, CULTURES AND BEYOND (THE ART OF WORLD BUILDING, #3) is a how-to guide for filling an imaginary world with fascinating societies. It includes chapters on creating culture, organizations, armed forces, religions, the supernatural, magic systems, technological and supernatural items, languages, names, and various systems our world will have, from health, educational, legal, and commerce, to information systems. You’ll learn how to leverage real world cultures while making them seem original. Even those who’ve never invented a world will soon be masters as the author’s decades of experience walk readers through using pre-made templates that make world building faster, better, and easier to complete.

This is likely to be a short-time offering.
