I’m now doing freelance writing and game design. My standard rate is 5 cents a word. System-wise I’m strongest in Savage Worlds and Fate, but I have experience with most modern games and adapt quickly to new ones. For content I specialize in adventures or creating environments that facilitate adventures.
