Any Title Except “Lone Wolf,” I Beg You
October 8, 2007As of last Friday, October 5th, I am no longer an employee of White Wolf Publishing. I’m a freelancer once again, actively looking for contracts and assignments to add to those I already have queueing up. Likewise, I’m looking for one of those legendary “day jobs,” so I can pay my real mortgage while chasing my imaginary career.
Stop sending emails to my white-wolf.com and ccpgames.com addresses. I can’t hear you when you do that. If you’d like to contact me about work (or whatever), please send an email to my first name @ wordstudio dot net (except all assembled into a grammatical email address). If you’d like more information on what’s happening with me now, what the future holds, and what this all means for you and I, the line starts here. Let’s hope the show is worth the price of the ticket.
This is an exciting time. (An obvious lie — I mean “terrifying,” not exciting.) More commentary, speculation, rumination, and melodrama to come in the near future, since I’ll have time to blog. This time might be the explorer’s wide horizon of layered mountains hiding the misty fields laid on the mystic curve of infinity, or it might be the prisoner’s pit of drowning hours accumulating in a cell like a cistern. We’ll see. Hell, I may even cogitate. Don’t want to miss that. So do stay tuned.

Ah, ok. No wonder I didn’t hear from you.
Good luck in your new endeavours!
Now that you’re in this new phase of life, perhaps it’s time to consider compounding the terror by moving to the other side of the country. Seattle would be a marvelous place to take up a Day Job. Plus, I could tell you where all the tasty restaurants are!
Wow. So you left the company entirely, huh? That was abrupt. I can only assume that you didn’t instigate this change willingly… It kind of blows me away that they would be replacing you so rapidly, particularly since you were putting out such top shelf work for the Requiem line… That’s a damned shame, man. Good luck with the Next Big Thing you do!
Hello, I was linked here via the WW live journal. Just dropping a note of appreciation of your work on Vampire. My Wife, gaming group and I have much good time playing Vampire. Ironically, I’ll be running The Resurrectionists for them this Friday. So, before the game, we’ll turn our chairs towards Atlanta and give a salute your way.

I heard about this last night, and I was shocked, I have to say.
But, I hope everything goes good for you man, I know you’ll find something good to work on, and I can’t wait to see what it is.
Best of luck in your future endeavors.
Sorry to hear about that, Will, but a writer of your talent can’t go without work for long. If I can lend a hand in any way, let me know.

I was just thinking of you the other day while writing up a summary of online communities/virtual worlds.
Good luck going forward. Drop me an email.
It seems as if Wizards needs a guy to help them with their MMO including a Producer. Disney needs a Vice President.
If you’re really charming or are friends with Tim Cain (remember, Troika, they did Bloodlines) ask if Carbine Studios has anything for you.
You actually have name recognition working for you in some groups. So maybe a job might appear where none was previously.
Good fortune.
