I’m a British, thirty-something, London-based tabletop RPG designer and gamemaster, with a decade’s experience of writing and running roleplaying games. I’ve freelanced for several established RPG publishers, developing my technical writing skills and demonstrating reliability in hitting deadlines. My earliest forays into tabletop gaming were through Games Workshop wargames, with Inquisitor as the gateway drug crossing the divide, and I poke my head into wargaming every now and again to see what’s what.  More regularly I enjoy movies, serialised television, board games and junk food.

Since February 2021, I have been working full-time as a freelance developer/writer/game designer in the tabletop RPG industry. If you’re willing to pay a fair rate, I am very likely interested in working on your game. DM me on Twitter (@Sabbad) or on Discord (@Michael D#6064) so we can talk details!

Since February 2023, I have been organiser of the London Tabletop Industry Networking group – scheduling monthly meetups, representing the group at conventions, and writing our monthly email newsletter. The latter remains the best way to stay up-to-date with the amazing work of tabletop gaming creators in London, including myself. To join our meetups, or open a dialogue with our members, please reach out through our socials.
