I’m also a regular contributor to Tabletop Gaming Magazine, where I write a monthly feature interviewing notable game designers as well as game reviews. And I’m the editor of The Board Game Book, the first in a planned series of annual hardback releases exploring the year’s most interesting and exciting new games.
