Where stories
found new possibilities.
Before our publishing chapter, Writers Game brought people together to explore how one story could live across books, games, comics, television and virtual reality.
These conversations are part of that beginning. Today, our focus is publishing—and the belief in a good story remains.
People who joined the conversation
Many disciplines.
One love of story.
Writers Game brought together voices from publishing, film, comics, games, promotion and virtual reality. Here are some of the people who helped make those events possible—and the work they are known for.
