A picture of me, looking tired probably.

Hello, I’m Hannah Nicklin. I’m an award-winning writer, narrative designer and narrative lead with over 10 years of experience.

I’ve most recently been Creative Director & CEO of Die Gute Fabrik, we launched Saltsea Chronicles to critical acclaim in 2023 on which I was the Creative Director & Game Director. Previous to that I wrote, narrative designed and co-produced Mutazione (2019), the most nominated game in the 2020 IGF awards. I have also done work as a writer & narrative designer, producer, artist, academic, performer, activist and lecturer. And I’m the author of Writing for Games: Theory & Practice, which is taught in many universities.

You can read more about me on my About page or check out my Credits, too. You can also head to this link to read more about Writing for Games: Theory & Practice. Check out my other books or e-zines in my shop, and if you’re really looking for A Time, check out my PhD about the playful arts (interactive theatre, games, digital art) as anti-capitalist practice.
