The Writers Cabal provides narrative design and dialog services for great games. We keep a blog with tips for the game developer working with writers or writing. We welcome feedback!
As one half of the Cabal, I am a game writer with over five years' experience in the popular media with four hours of produced television and two shipped games under my belt. As a writer for NBC serial DAYS OF OUR LIVES, I wrote each script within a week of assignment. I translated these skills as an in-house writer on STARGATE WORLDS. A citizen of the EU as well as the US, I also hold a degree in Archaeology from Harvard.
Clients include: NBC (Corday Productions), Cheyenne Mountain Entertainment (Stargate Worlds), Legacy Interactive (producers of the Law & Order games)
