1st Post - Brent Knowles - Writers of the Future Winner testing waters of Kindle pubs

BrentKnowles · 03-03-2011, 11:35 AM

Long time lurker but first time poster. This site has always been a great source of information for me and I'll see if I can contribute at all.

I'm a game designer, formerly with BioWare (Dragon Age, Neverwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate 2) but I'm retired now and blog about game design and writing at blog.brentknowles.com.

Stop by and let me know if you have any questions about game design or my experiences with BioWare!

Also, I've finally gotten around to uploading some reprints of my various stories, including my Writers of the Future winning story 'Digital Rights' on the Kindle.

Digital Rights (First place in the Writers of the Future Contest, 3rd Quarter 2009) - a young woman finds a 'ghost' aboard her space station: [promotional link deleted - MODERATOR]

Also my story The End of the Road about a soldier in the future who is trapped within bizarre alien body armor is relatively popular - [promotional link deleted - MODERATOR

I have a few other stories too, this is the link to my author profile

If you scour my blog I also have a Smashwords profile and occasionally provide free coupons and whatnot through that.

Sorry for the long winded introduction, I'll shut up now
