GM looking for players, sandbox Dungeon World campaign, Saturdays weekly, 4-8pm (EST/UTC-5)

Edit: No more room, folks. Thanks! Hello, folks. I am looking for 2-3 players for my upcoming hexcrawl Dungeon World campaign. Dungeon World is an excellent RPG by Sage LaTorra and Adam Koebel that is beginner-friendly and runs on player creativity. My idea is to run a game set in a dying world with one of the possible incentives for exploration being the discovery of lost knowledge and lore. Instead of starting in a tavern and adventuring in the typical high-fantasy world, players would be dropped off in a dark fantasy environment, free to decide and pursue their own agendas. If anyone is familiar with West Marches, the format will be similar - minus the rotating cast and its restrictive one-shot nature, and with much more room for the players to add to the fiction. Because of this, I am looking for players that can get enthusiastic and creative about this kind of setting, and that can respect the tone of the game (not that joking is prohibited, but excessively silly character concepts or locations are). I have a lot of experience running Apocalypse World and its hacks, and I am looking forward to using Dungeon World's fast and simple rules for combat and exploration. I already have a player on board. We are going to play saturdays, looking to start in 2 weeks time on the 5th of December If you are interested, or have any questions, please send a private message or a forum post my way. Thanks!
Do you allow playbooks from source other than the core rulebooks?

I plan to incorporate Grim World playbooks into the game, but not during character creation. I don't want to say too much, but think of the party stumbling upon some terrible secret, which then leads to the playbook being "unlocked" for future use. This isn't to make the campaign more gamey, but due to the way I'd like the Grim World playbooks to tie into the lore.
So in character creation its strictly core rulebook classes? No third party playbooks allowed?

Updated the original post. Its still not too late to join, two slots remain open.
I'm interested. Which day of the week are you wanting to play?

Thanks for the quick reply. I figured it must be a weekend game because of the early start time. I'm looking for weekday games. Have fun out there! If you guys change to a weekday, let me know. 
Final edit to the original post. We have one more spot open. Thanks everyone for your interest!
