I'm a game writer, journalist, and academic. I freelance as a writer in game industry, edit Gamasutra's GameCareerGuide, and attend Simon Fraser University's Interactive Arts & Technology program as a PhD student.

I don't want to go on about myself, so if you're curious, you can Google me. It's creepy and wrong, but I'm leaving you with no other choice. Or you can just talk to me, like normal people.
