Steve Ince Joins The Writers\u2019 Guild<\/strong><\/p>\n

EAST YORKSHIRE, UK (July 26th<\/sup>, 2012):<\/p>\n

Steve Ince, writer and game designer, is pleased to announce that he is now a member of The Writers\u2019 Guild of Great Britain<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ince, who has nearly 20 years\u2019 experience in game development, believes such a move is important, not only to enhance the growing maturity with which game writing is being approached, but also as a way of contributing to how such important organisations view game writing and game writers.\u00a0 The Guild has been incredibly supportive of game writing in recent years, particularly with the inclusion of a specific game writing category in their annual awards.<\/p>\n

Being a part of a wider development of game writing is important for all game writers and others should consider joining, too.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This year has also seen Ince gain representation from SMART Talent and is represented by Kelly Marshall. \u00a0Ince has found working with an experienced agent to be a refreshing development in his career.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
