Honestly, life. Between work and health stuff, on top of me streaming, me getting... Continue Reading →
Well, that didn't last long. Also, some thoughts on LinkedIn as a platform and the quest for professionalism.
I went to Gamescom this year and got to make many connections with devs, publishers, PR folks and content creators alike.
