Tabletop Adventures, LLC, asked me to do the interior layout and trade dress/cover design for the pdf book, Bits of Darkness: Dungeons. I was provided with the cover illustration, but I had to design the masthead, and lay everything out. Since then, I’ve done the trade dress for several more of their books.

Funny story about this design:. Grey Ghost Games had asked for ideas for the dice bags they were producing. I spent a few minutes one afternoon, came up with this rough design, and sent it off to GGG. Several other people submitted logo designs, and the designs were discussed heavily on the Grey Ghost e-mail list. After a few weeks, no real decision had been made, and the topic was dropped.
A few months later, at Origins game convention, I stopped by on of the exhibitor’s booths, and found brand new dice bags printed with my design! I was floored, because no one had ever told me that they had used my design (I wasn’t upset). Later that day, I caught up with the Grey Ghost rep and asked about it. Apparently, the information on who designed which logo got lost, and Grey Ghost had to go ahead and print the bags for the con. As it ended up, I got a couple of free bags out of the deal (which I wasn’t expecting), and a cool story for my portfolio.
