Calamity (Knights of Eternity #1) by @quirkiltons.bsky.social
Woman is sucked into her favorite arcade game and inhabits the body of one of the game’s most terrifying villains. Things get worse from there.
Bonus: The author is super nice & cool :D

I simply don't see a way trad could keep up with indie in the space. Also the way they go about getting new talent is the complete opposite to how it's done in the LitRPG/ProgFan genre space. They'd have to make a lot of changes to the way they do business
Legends and Lattes appears to have been self-published (Cryptid Press) before it was picked up by Tor 9 months later. Even then, Baldree was already established in the space thanks to his voice acting work and connections. I'd argue that *was* an out of the way acquisition
I don't disagree, but I also don't see them really having a foot in the door here unless they're trying to acquire more already existing works. Their publishing cycle is simply too long compared to the indie space. Even if they ultimately have greater reach, which is doubtful
Trad publishers would have to give a lot more incentives than they do nkw and fully change the way they do business to take on more LitRPGs. I don't see it happening any time soon
LitRPG is the shiny new toy on the shelf. I hope it continues to garner new interest and new eyes, but it's by no means the future of all fantasy. It's a subgenre that is steadily gaining steam and recognition
Just launched my debut sci-fi novel Hounds of Orion: Book One!
In the year 2848, gods aren't in the heavens, they're on the battlefield.
If you enjoy mech battles, political intrigue, morally gray heroes, and high-stakes space opera, this one’s for you!

Congratulations!
Neat! Best of luck with it!
That's some intense math for a LitRPG. I respect it, even if I don't understand it
That's simultaneously really neat and not at all surprising, given her interests. It's no wonder she's a fan of yours, too!
After being told I had a voice for narration for many years, and after dabbling in it last year, I've finally pulled the trigger on doing narrations.
If all goes well, I'll have credits on at least 5 full length books before the year is out. I'm so excited!
And a great answer it is!
