Game on Girl

Hello everyone and welcome to Game on Girl the podcast!

Episode #1 – What Does it Mean to be a gamer?

Please follow and subscribe to my new podcast available here or click play on the player below!  This first show discusses two of the main questions from the interviews, namely “How do you define a gamer?” and “What does it mean to be a gamer?”  This episode is a compilation of the interviews I conducted but as the show evolves I’ll be conducting new interviews.  If you’d like to chat about gaming, and game culture, send me an email.

Greetings, Gentle Reader,

I am painfully aware of my lack of posts here and the promises I made to write up gamer profiles from the research interviews I conducted.  I have found finishing the dissertation and considering my future plans to be an overwhelming process, one that demanded I take stock of what I really want as opposed to what I am expected to want at this point in my career. So the six months since my last post have been a time of hearty reflection and upheaval in my life.

Now that some of that upheaval has leveled out and I have more time on my hands, I am turning my attention back to writing and producing something exciting for this website.  It is the first time since the early stages of my dissertation research that I have been really excited about something.

So I ask you to watch this space and publicly make the promise that a new and exciting post will be available before January 31st, something that will start with the research I did for my dissertation and hopefully build into something bigger.

So stay tuned and in the meantime,

Game on!
Regina
