About this listen

This is an excerpt from the book Creative Writing Career: Becoming a Writer of Movies, Video Games, and Books. This section comprises the entire section on video game writing, to include video game writer interviews, and is Part Five of the book.

This book includes two additional "sneak peek" interviews that will be included in upcoming books in the Creative Mentor series.

Maybe I should have concluded that this book was not for me from the summary and the sample clip before buying it, but I didn't. I found next to zero useful information in it. It goes on and on about attending conferences and networking in general and playing games or consuming other media you are going to work with. Well. Thank you for stating the obvious. Besides, for someone who pretends to explain how writing works, the author didn't do much writing in this book. It's filled with interviews where people tell about their career trajectories and self promote. I imagine that young aspiring writers may find some sort of inspiration in it but I, as a person who wanted to gain more knowledge about writing didn't learn anything.

Quite useless
