作者簡介

Lee Sheldon began his writing career in television as a writer-producer, eventually writing over 200 shows ranging from Charlie's Angels (writer) to Edge of Night (head writer) to Star Trek: The Next Generation (writer-producer). Having written and designed over forty commercial and applied video games, Lee spearheaded the first full writing for games concentration in North America at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the second writing concentration at Worcester Polytechnic Institute where he is now a Professor of Practice. A companion book to this one, The Multiplayer Classroom: Game Plans, will be published by CRC Press and will feature fully annotated design documents from his more ambitious multiplayer and alternate reality games including the first online multiplayer classroom. Other games covered teach physical fitness, Mandarin and Chinese Culture and cybersecurity, a game where students must defend their university against attacks originating on the dark web. The third edition of Lee's book Character Development and Storytelling for Games, a standard text in the field, is also forthcoming from CRC Press. Lee is a regular lecturer and consultant on game design and writing in the U.S. and abroad. His most recent commercial game, the award-winning The Lion's Song, is currently on Steam.
