The six inaugural participants for Wordplay, a games writing mentorship, have been announced. Produced in partnership between GamesHub and Creative Victoria, the program will commission six emerging writers to create work informed by Melbourne International Games Week 2021 (October 2-10), to be published on GamesHub.
They will be assisted by six experienced mentors, all of whom are well-established in the games criticism and coverage space. The mentors include Alice Clarke, Dan Golding, Rae Johnston, Brendan Keogh, Jini Maxwell, and Edmond Tran.
