Professional graphic designer (
www.universalhead.com), drummer (
www.thetelltales.com) and gamer.
I'm best known here on the 'Geek for designing rules summaries and reference sheets ... it's an addiction that springs from my obsession with good design. You can find them all in one place at
www.headlesshollow.com/freebies_games.html.
Recently I've begun to do more game graphics - notably
Traders of Carthage,
Prophecy and
Tales of the Arabian Nights for Z-Man Games.
Creator of the official website for Tékumel (an original imaginary world invented by Professor M.A.R. Barker) at
www.tekumel.com and the unofficial site for BattleLore at
www.battleloremaster.com. Blog at

Please read BEFORE contacting me about my player aids: I get a lot of emails with requests for particular game summaries and translations of existing ones. Please save us both some time and read the following:If you want a particular game given the 'Universal Head treatment', you have two options: wait until I get around to buying it and doing the summary/reference, or buy it for me and have it go to the top of the queue.
Due to limited time, I do not supply original art files to translators. If you still wish to continue, go ahead, but please credit my original work.
Please don't contact me to get artwork, scans, answers to rules questions, inside info ... c'mon folks, that's what the forums are for!
