I have worked on the award-nominated Civilization VII, and have many other indie and AA projects where I was responsible for content, systems and production.

I'm also looking for work and use my very own Anna Intelligence that's in my mushy meaty brain for programming, design, and art! No AI here, just organic, free-range homegrown nonsense

words cannot express how excited I am about Dana's book, and I don't know if any of us are ready for it. what a brilliant writer omg
Hi. I'm Dana and this is the first four pages of my work-in-progress novel, Flight of the Independent Omnivessel Exocoetus.
It's sci-fi, queer, and an unapologetic mix-tape of so many things I've thought were cool since I was a kid, and still do.
