After 13 years as first a contract writer, then a salaried writer, then a lead writer, then a senior writer at InXile Entertainment, I have been laid off. I had a great time while I was there, and I am sad to go, but as they say, every ending is a new beginning, so here's me, beginning again.

Stephen has done great work for InXile through thick and thin. Hire him and he'll do great work for you!
A weekly (soon to be daily!) reminder that I need a new job!

My Narrative Design contract at InXile ends 10/17 and I would love to have something resembling gainful employment before then if at all possible.

Today's been kind of a rough day. I learned earlier that my current gig will be ending 10/17. Though the timing is never great it's not really surprising. Was hoping to get a few more months out of it, though.

Anyway, if anybody's hiring here's my LinkedIn profile: www.linkedin.com/in/stephen-b...

Of course Alberta prosecutors feel betrayed. They’ve been generously helping police for years by refusing to charge/prosecute them.
NEWS: A senior Crown told me prosecutors feel "frustrated and betrayed" by EPS's decision to publicly attack and threaten to embarrass the prosecution service over its handling of a plea deal in a child homicide.

Three former Crowns also condemned EPS's move.

Yes, that’s me, your multiplayer teammate who gets completely crushed after breaking cover to run for loot at exactly the wrong moment. No, I will never learn.

I need you to understand that if you heard a song you liked in the 80s, you couldn’t Shazam it. You couldn’t Google the lyrics. You had to sing it to the guy at Tower Records.

One of the worst trends I've seen in 'leadership' in my many years of the game industry is this tendency to penalize the person who points out inappropriate / destructive / etc behavior.
