Well, I guess I have to talk about myself, then, uh?
I'm a newbie game designer, who started by doing a mod of "Zombie in my Pocket" called "Airborne in my Pocker". Then I went on to design my first original game, "D-Day Dice", in 2009 (it will be published in 2012 by Valley Games, along with a slew of expansions).
My background is mostly in writing: I have been publishing novels since 1990 (I was 22), with the occasional article in cultural magazines, and I have worked in the publishing business (even had my own publishing house for a while). I've dabbled in illustrations and graphics, too. Since 2005, I've been paying my bills by writing for TV, which is totally not as glamorous as it sounds.
