FEATURES & ESSAYS


EGM

As a contributor, I pitched and wrote feature articles that aligned with EGM’s editorial mission to provide high-quality, thought-provoking stories about video games.

In My Waking Life

Red Dead Redemption 2 made me confront, in more ways than one, my connection to the myth of the American West.

Featured on EGMNow’s “Best of” list, along with the kind words, “For all the countless articles that have been written about Red Dead Redemption 2, there’s never been anything quite like this story.” What started as an ode to one of my favorite games somehow became an elegy to my grandfather. Many thanks to Michael Goroff and Josh Harmon, the fine editors at EGM, for championing and nurturing stories that went beyond chasing trends and clicks.


A journalistic feature that explores the challenges and perceptions of writing for mobile games. In researching this piece, I learned how mobile-game writing differs from so-called “prestige” game writing — despite sharing many of the same fundamental storytelling traits.
