Bridging the gap between gamers and non-gamers: this is a topic that we’ve addressed many times on the show. This week we talk to author, host, and video game columnist, Genese Davis. Genese has written a novel, The Holder’s Dominion, aimed at describing game culture and the desire to game to non-gamers. Listen to hear Genese’s story about becoming a gamer as an adult, the process of writing a novel about gaming, and how to lark your life.
As always, we’d love your feedback. Let us know what you think in the comments here, on our Facebook page, or on our Twitter account.
Until next time, game on!
