Saw this on Facebook.
A documentary by the BBC on fighting fantasy gamebooks which started with The Warlock of Firetop Mountain by Steve Jackson (the brit one, not the US designer of GURPs, Car Wars, GEV/Ogre, yadda yadda), and Ian Livingston who went on to found Games Workshop (creator of blood bowl, warhammer, warhammer 40k, yadda).

Just trying to help out.
Was hoping to be able to download it as an mp3, but not much luck.
If anyone can figure it out (might be on another BBC site), please post a link.

And yes, MP3 downloads are available.
For storycrafting, campaign setting, you might get some ideas from Neil Gaiman's creative process. He talks about "American Gods" in this "ep of the series":http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01fznhb (mp3 download available).
