About Me:
Editor and occasional reviewer at Snackbar Games, n00b blogger, level 3 journalist. Sometimes I do marketing work for a certain game company, but only occasionally.

My first opinion piece for Gamasutra is coming up, but they haven't told me when. Update: it's been moved to GameSetWatch, where I now already have a column, The Game Anthropologist. I love GSW, though; I really am honored to be writing there.

Hmmm. I still want other gigs though. If you like my GSW column and want me to write for you (I can do other kinds of writing too, I promise), hit me up. I have no more room for freebies--paying gigs only.

What I do well is everything. If you don't believe that, then my biography, blog, and column haven't impressed you enough. If you think it's possible, come up with an idea to test me and I'll send you a custom-made sample, just for you, limited time offer.

What I do best is game culture, game communities, and interviews.

Why do I use the word "Etelmik"?

I've not written this anywhere else. I made it up because I needed a name that I could use that would be short and would always be available when I'm making an ID. Because man, we make a lot of IDs. Also, I want to play online without using my real name. I had to figure out how to mix my player name and my writing name.

As for the actual name, I needed it to be unique and distinct--I realized this after I accidentally came up with two Roman prefixes and suffixes in the name-making process, like "us". That would change this name to "Etelmikus." See? Roman.
