I'm a game designer and freelance journalist and occasional traveller and all-around-busy family guy. 

I've written for newspapers and local magazines, including the Valley News, our fine local paper, as well as The Burlington Free Press, Vermont's largest daily. Penny Press, the first board game I co-designed, is in the wild. I also write fiction that I am sometimes not wholly embarrassed by.

It's a pretty good life so far. To see retweeted cat photos, hop on the Twitter train at @mattgowrite.

NEWSY STUFF:

I'm in the final stages of developing our newest game, Westmonster Kennel Club. We took it to Boston FIG and PAX Unplugged, and it's really coming along.

Last year I wrote a column called 'Role Selection' for the Boston-based games website The Cardboard Republic. I really enjoyed chatting with folks working and playing in the board game world. 

And many of you know that PENNY PRESS, the board game another fellow and I designed, won Cards Against Humanity's 2013 Tabletop Deathmatch. We had an incredibly successful campaign on Kickstarter, and the final product is available on Amazon and other retail outlets. 

Here's one of the many kind reviews (you can see more at our page on Boardgamegeek):

AND FINALLY:

And finally, I've got an ebook -- FINDING FUNBOY -- available for Amazon's Kindle. It's in the lending library, so if you're a Prime member, go check it out. Like, for free.

OOPS, ONE MORE THING:
