a monger's guide
A downloadable writing tool
Just like how people can’t just eat a fish without taking a knife to it and cutting out the inedible bits, so too does a story need to be prepared before it’s given to the masses. Otherwise, you’re just giving them the truth - and how often do people willingly consume the truth, bones and all?
This is a ten-step guide for taking an event and turning it into a proper rumor - one that’s juicy enough to sell and altered enough to serve the purpose of the forces shaping its narrative. This can be applied to any sort of event, as long as it’s salacious enough to be worthwhile and complex enough to be rewritten.
a monger's guide can be played in a group - going around the table and having each person come up with the answers in turn - or it can be used alone as a writing tool.
