Gameist Authors

  • Ben Dennison Growing up Ben had somewhere between four and six Atari 2600s. Why? He doesn't know, but to this day he still wonders why all the other kids didn't own three E.T. cartdridges. He knows King Koopa's last castle by heart and once held the PacMan hi-score at his local bowling alley, much to no one's praise or wonder.
  • Danny Gallagher I write for a living. I'm also very hungry. My humor and comedy writing have appeared in the Chicago Tribune, the Christian Science Monitor, Cracked.com, Spike.com, AOL's TV Squad and Asylum as well as on comedy club stages in New York City and Chicago and most recently at the Shadowbox Sketch Comedy Theater in Columbus. I also have not been able to afford food in sometime. My website is www.dannygallagher.net. I had to sell the last morsel of food I had so I could buy the website.
  • Jonathan Kimak Jonathan has been writing ever since he learned that crayons were not one of the primary food groups. He started gaming when his parents gave him an Nintendo Entertainment System for Christmas, a decision they now regret. Jonathan also writes for sites like Cracked.com and has a blog that is updated yearly at http://technohawk.blogspot.com/
  • Jonathan Plombon Jonathan Plombon instructed readers on how to properly dispose of unwanted children and advocated mass-doggy discrimination in otherwise respectable publications such as The University Chronicle and The St. Cloud Times. When not writing short stories about Mariah Carey, Jonathan brags to anyone who'll listen that he achieved World Records in both John Elway's Quarterback and Bill Laimbeer's Combat Basketball. Both.
  • Malcolm Christiansen Malcolm cares deeply and passionately about videogame plots, something his friends find adorable. He writes for Cracked, as well as for his personal site, The Last Gaffe. If you want to tell him how handsome he is or set up a TF2 deathmatch, he can be reached at mchristiansen (at) thelastgaffe (dot) com.
  • Moonbeam Glasscock While Moonbeam Glasscock is not actually funny, he is a humor enabler. As the editor and proprietor of Gameist, he considers himself a patron of the arts.
  • Nathan Birch I write stupid things and much to my surprise people publish them. When not doing that I play a lot of video games (you like video games, right?) I'm also a reformed Sega fan; please don't hold it against me.
  • RisingPun Seth Brown grew up playing almost every SNES RPG ever made, then spent four years playing Magic and all the Playstation Final Fantasy games, with occasional college classes in between. Since then, he has written three books, held two humor columns, and appeared in the Washington Post and USA Today. His website is www.RisingPun.com
  • SteelFan714 With four years of higher education spent studying the field of journalism, Bobby soon learned he really didn't like the field of journalism. Fortunately, he was pretty sure nobody had thought to write comedy for the internet yet, so he decided to do that for the rent. He writes for a handful of blogs and web sites on topics from video games, to sports, to video games again, all of which can be found linked from his own site, RobertPIngramEsq.com.
