It's both inspiring and helpful. I’m an aspiring writer and game artist and not only am I enjoying Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne, but I’m also loving this behind-the-scenes blog.

I think you are my idol! "David Gaider wisely prepared for a career in the games industry by first suffering from terminal boredom as a hotel manager. During that time he gamed as much with his friends as he could, and that paid off with a sweet little job writing for a company he’d never heard of before on a sequel to a computer game he’d never played. “It’ll last a few years, I guess,” he thought. Nine years later he is still at the same company, working as the Lead Writer on Dragon Age: Origins. Who knew?" Wow amazing now i am not presuming it was down to luck that you got where you were today but i am going to say... damn i wish i had luck like that! Really looking forward to this game, (that for some reason had fallen off my radar) will be picking up the book too! David, i presume you will stumble upon this!

Knowing the book is written by David Gaider, who is playing such a big part in the story for Dragon Age: Origins... I'm going to *have* to buy it now!
