ABOUT
ABOUT ME
Game writer, novelist, game designer, screenwriter, playwright, music critic, occasional poet, story structure wonk.
You know, the usual stuff.
WHAT I'VE DONE
I was at Microsoft Game Studios for a really long time. It was a great experience, working both for internal studios and with external studios like Bioware, Remedy, Gas Powered Games, Frontier Developments, and more.
Then I freelanced for several years before becoming
Head of Narrative at
Wargaming Seattle.
Now I freelance again.
Possibly for you.
WHAT I DO
I write things.
I diagnose things other people have written, and gently explain how to make them better.
I teach seminars in story, and how it works in games.
I am clever as all get-out, and very easy to get along with.
