"I am so beastly tired of mankind and the world that nothing can interest me unless it contains a couple of murders on each page or deals with the horrors unnameable and unaccountable that leer down from the external universes." - HP Lovecraft Devon is a 23 year old writer/game designer with a BA in Creative Writing from the prestigious Charles & Lily Lieb Port Creative Writing Program at the not-so-prestigious SUNY Purchase. His short story "Revelations" appears in the Spring '08 issue of Space and Time Magazine. Not surprisingly, Devon is a total geek. So when not writing speculative fiction, making video games, reading speculative fiction, or playing video games, he tends to play live action and tabletop RPGs, make live action or tabletop RPGs, or play live action or tabletop RPGs that he has made, such as Systems Malfunction. In short, he avoids the real world as much as possible. He is also a HUGE film buff. Hey, my new e-mail address is here! ghostlightgames@gmail.com
