Acid for Blood

I left my job at Xfire last month to work at a company that I couldn’t speak of until today. It was my first day on the job as a Community Manager for Guild Wars. How cool is it that I’ve been writing about the game as a player and now I’m working at ArenaNet? […]

The official National Novel Writing Month forums (NaNoWriMo) and website have just relaunched. They have created a sub forum devoted to virtual worlds. I don’t know if this sub forum existed last year, as I didn’t visit the site then, but if I remember correctly they didn’t have such a forum in 2005. I thought […]
