My name is Matthew Birdzell, a multi-disciplined writer focusing on videogames. My favorites? Slick, cinematic narratives - single & cooperative - as well as multiplayer. You sweaty casuals. :)

I am passionate in writing narrative in whatever form it takes.

I bring to the writing room building set pieces, plot, character development that resonates, a range of dialogue, and vivid descriptions. These in the forms of screenplays, descriptions, and barks. Games like Halo, Horizon Zero Dawn, The Elder Scrolls, God of War Ragnarok, Tomb Raider, Overwatch, and Star Wars are my go-to’s or ones I admire.

On the flip side, I am fascinated by how that challenge is tackled in today’s multiplayer experiences. Telling a side story, describing a multiplayer map including a derelict ship, or coming up with creative insults or announcer moments - it all drives me to bring my A-game. Despite being stuck in a 9-5 fishbowl.

Outside of gaming, I slap high overhand serves in volleyball, enjoy target shooting, am a Middle Earth and Star Wars geek, love pranking friends, and write novels. Afficionado of dark humor.
