I worked for Games Workshop for a very specific part of its history. I started in the Mail Order Trollz and worked my way up into the Studio, finishing out my career with GW working on White Dwarf magazine, UK and then US edition. During my time at the company, especially during my White Dwarf years, I had one mission. I wanted to share the joy the Warhammer hobby gave me, to lift up that mystic veil and show, who you, the average gamer (like me) could participate no matter your skill level. In short, take some of the mystery out of what is drybrushing... lol I like to think I mostly succeeded in this mission, and I am heartened when I hear from now Vets in the hobby who cite me as a positive influence. The 'hobby' as I like to call it is supposed to be fun, a uniting force between gamers, to create friendships, a social fucntion, something to be enjoyed and share. You never were supposed to build silos of lore, because the very idea of the Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 universe was the history was so convoluted and fragmented there was no such thing as 'fact' Everything was supposed to contradict... That was the purpose. That being said, I am overjoyed seeing the hobby that once gave me a means to live, being so inclusive. Seeing female, LGBTQ+ gamers and seeing them represented at the highest level of GW toy soldiers is pure joy. I love it. I wish I had seen more of it during my time at Games Workshop. But we are here now and you've made this old White Dwarf'er very proud. Play well 👍 #Warhammer #Warhammer40K #WhiteDwarf #WarhammerCommunity #GamesWorkshop
J'ai mal à la hanche. Avant je serais allée chez l'osteo, il m'aurait fait craquer 2 fois. M'expliquant pendant que je rédige un chèque, tout ce qui était bloqué chez moi. J'ai même été qualifiée une fois de "chef d'œuvre en péril" (c'est joli hein 🥹). Et j'irais mieux.
