Pat Harrigan and I enjoyed editing First Person — and readers seemed to enjoy its broad view of our field. Now Pat and I are happy to announce the publication of a follow-up volume, Second Person: Role-Playing and Story in Games and Playable Media. The contributors to this book go further with some of the ideas and topics in First Person, but also take in a new set of areas. In each case — from tabletop role-playing games to improvisational theater, from political games to procedural authorship — the approach of Second Person is grounded in specific examples, drawing on the insights of a diverse set of contributors.
