The Living Greyhawk Journal was a periodical published by the Role-Playing Games Association(RPGA) as a stand-alone magazine from August 2000 (#0) to July 2001 (#5). The publication was intended to supplement the RPGA's Living Greyhawk campaign, though many consider the content within to be canon for the Greyhawk setting in general.

The first six issues (#0-5) were stand-alone magazines, but later issues were inside Dragon and Dungeon magazines at the back of each issue. Living Greyhawk Journals #6-20 were in Dragon issues 290-302, 304, and 306. Living Greyhawk Journals #21-24 were in Dungeon issues 98, 103-104, and 106.

Issue #5 was greatly delayed in its publishing. It was originally set to be published in July of 2001, but due to "transfers, reorganizations, disorganizations, and worse."[1] it wasn't published until March 2002. Issues #6-9 were published in the interim in Dragon magazine, but the RPGA still mailed the last standalone issue to all members who'd had a subscription when the issue was supposed to have been published even if their membership had since expired.
