Interview

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

If you don't want to work many hours a week for very little pay, you're in the wrong line of work.

What's your favorite drink?

Per the cliche, I really like black coffee.

Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?

Eurogamer for games, The Baffler for politics

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

As a freelancer, I spend very little time actually playing games for work - except when I'm under a review assignment.
