Amazing but true!
David Ellis and I won the first ever Writer’s Guild of America video game writing award for our work on Dead Head Fred! I’m still snapping out of my initial shock. Wow! Sorry friends, I know it’s been a long time since last I posted, but at least I have something to talk about. And in fact I did a lot of talking about it right here and here. On a sadder note, I’m still recovering from the loss of one of my greatest heroes: Gary Gygax, who passed away on March 4th of this year. Gygax’s work on the Dungeons and Dragons series had a profound impact on my life, both creatively and emotionally. I would never have become a video game designer if I hadn’t been exposed to his ingenious games, games that fully embraced and enhanced our imaginations. The world is a darker place without him. Before I sign off, I want to give a quick shout out to RAUL TREVINO, the talented new artist working with me on ONE WAY TICKET. I will be posting some sample artwork as soon as he lets me. Also, my good pal ROB DUENAS has been kicking serious hiney on our MOSAIC pitch. Want to see a little sample? Sure you do:  |
