    Hey, everyone. I'm a professional game developer who's been writing most of his life, but to date my published work is limited to games. I'm working on a cyberpunk noir visual novel, hopefully to be released in early 2019, but I'm here because I'd like to branch out into LitRPG as a kind of 'making writing fun as well as work' exercise. I'm excited to find out what fans love about the genre and deepen my understanding of its conventions.

    I found the Apocalypse Gates series through a Reddit post that suggested it for fans of E. William Brown (whose work I like a great deal, although it's not LitRPG, even though it has similar themes), and I'm working my way through Daniel Schinhofen's other work at the moment.

    Thanks for the welcome, looking forward to being a part of the community!
