I'm the Director of Universe Creation 101 - a company where I am developing my own creative projects and entertainment services, as well as consulting on cross/transmedia projects. I'm currently developing an unusual online comedy drama called AUTHENTIC IN ALL CAPS. I present and run workshops worldwide on transmedia writing and design. I've written a PhD on transmedia practice, and I sometimes blog war stories at YouSuckatTransmedia.com.
