New games chairman for Writers’ Guild of Great Britain

The Writers’ Guild of Great Britain has appointed Steve Ince as new chairman of the video games committee.

He has worked on titles including Broken Sword: The Serpent’s Curse, Galaxy on Fire: Alliances and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. Ince has been part of the Guild for the last two years.

“As a first step in this new position I’d like to invite all eligible game writers to consider joining the Guild, details of which are on the Guild website,” said Ince.

“Game writers, like most other scribes, can feel a little isolated at times, so being part of an organisation with such a rich history will give you a place in a strong community of creative individuals from every part of the writing spectrum.

“Previous holders of this position have done a fantastic job to date and I hope I can match that, particularly as there’s still a lot to do in respect to what the Guild means for game writers. By joining or becoming part of the discussion, game writers can help give direction in a field that is evolving faster than all others.”
