A big update: Now that I’ve got some freelance contracts going again, I’m very much Open for Business! If you need a writer for a gaming feature, a pop-culture interview, a mock review or other games-industry consulting gig, a Star Wars expert or Fallout S2 recapper, my email is [email protected].
Some print work from my previous freelance days: an issue of PC Gamer with Cyberpunk on the cover, my book on the making of BioWare, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, an issue of Edge magazine, Fangoria issue number 2 (which contains my oral history of Friday the 13th: The Game), and Den of Geek.

Some books are just meant to be, ya know? Had to be me, someone else might have gotten it wrong. ✨
Cover reveal for STAR WARS LEGACY with Leia, Rey and Kylo Ren •
Set between Episodes VIlI and IX, Rey and Leia embark on a quest to repair Rey's lightsaber and rekindle the legacy of the Jedi.
After barely escaping the First Order on Crait, Rey and the Resistance are struggling to rebuild. Her friends need the last Jedi more than ever, but Rey feels alone and overwhelmed: Jedi tradition is built on masters and apprentices, and Rey's teacher is gone. Leia Organa tries her best to train Rey in the ways of the Force as Luke did for her so many years ago, but Leia's knowledge is limited, Rey's lightsaber is broken, and the specter of Kylo Ren and regrets from the past haunt them both. How can Leia pass the torch, when she herself is unsure of the way?
But then, the ancient Jedi texts offer a glimmer of hope: a long-forgotten Jedi temple on Tython that might hold the key to repairing Rey's saber. Rey leaps at the chance to journey there - and to her surprise, so does Leia.
Rey and Leia's nascent mentorship is put to the test when they discover the temple on Tython is filled with obscure clues to decipher and arcane trials to complete.As they work to unravel the temple's mysteries, they encounter a group of refugees living in its shadow, hiding from a First Order officer hot on the trail of two freedom fighters in their midst: With the threat of the First Order looming and the secrets of the temple yet to be unlocked, the newly forged master and apprentice must confront their pasts, reach each other in the present, and decide what it means to carry the legacy of the Jedi into the future.

Guillermo del Toro and Netflix have announced plans to form a new stop motion studio that will be both a studio and a school to push the medium forward and will develop plans to make Del Toro's next stop motion project after Pinocchio. I'm very hyped to see what this leads to!

Had a dream I was hanging out with the Goo Goo Dolls (maybe I was interviewing them for an article?), and their bass player went on this long, in-the-weeds rant about why the acoustic guitar is an inherently superior instrument compared to the electric six-string. He may have been onto something.

Hell yeah! Congratulations

On Monday, Yacht Club Games delayed the much-anticipated upcoming game Mina the Hollower.

On Tuesday, I visited their studio and saw the game. It made for a rare glimpse at why a video game gets delayed and what "polish" actually means.

Why 'Mina the Hollower' Was Delayed
Yacht Club Games hasn't given a new release date, but the delay shouldn’t be more than a few months

Top 4 games of 2025 so far
Avowed, Obsidian. Iridescent skeleton with a sword. Golden Tee Arcade Classics. A golf course viewed from the green. Whisker Squadron: Survivor, sort of a Star Fox 64 homage with roguelike elements and a synthwave vibe. Battlefield 6 key art. Soldiers surviving a flaming New York City.
