Interested in writing about video games? Wondering how to make it work freelance? Just want some tips or a nice chat? ☕ I'm hosting a @journoresources talk next month, perfect for newcomers, oldcomers, or thinking-about-dipping-inners. RTs appreciated. https://t.co/PjKtGANKWr

Tickets are a fiver (join live or VOD) but if you've recently been laid off you can get in free 💚 It's a weird time for our industry so I'd like to impart whatever wisdom I can from my years of experience. I can't say it's sunshine and rainbows atm, but there are paths forward.

Another great week of action at the #ALGS Championship - @TSM once again hitting form when it matters and going back-to-back-to-back to take the trophy. Here's @ImperialHal on winning the big one, thoughts on retirement, and whether or not he's the 🐐 https://t.co/8dgq5xPr7z

Thanks to @ValeriiMinenko for chatting with me and showing me a first look at your game, I can't wait to play the demo (which should be available soon)

Returning very briefly to tweet about Hollow Home, a new RPG from @TwigamesNet, a Disco Elysium-inspired game set during the events of the Russian invasion of Mariupol. This looks like an incredibly powerful game, one I'm keeping a close eye on. https://t.co/eSuD38spi9

I'm in the process of removing myself from Twitter atm - I don't see the point in migrating to an alternative. If you're a mutual looking to stay in touch, DM me for my Insta that I scroll but don't post on. Legit the best way to stay in touch may be following me on Goodreads 📚

Following months of interviews with developers from across three different, highly prestigious indie studios, here’s our investigation into the emotional abuse employees have been suffering at the hands of their founders. https://t.co/StiTuVqK14

ICYMI I'm a seamstress now

Wasn't sure if this 'counted' but my list my rules (I'm counting audiobooks so why not this 🤷). Loved the Sandman comics back in the day and this audio drama has a phenomenal cast and stunning production value. Great adaptation of Gaiman's best work

Et voila 💀

All finished now but will post a pic when it's light hope you're all riveted x

Oh lawd he sewing
