I’m Trenton: a writer, artist and emerging narrative designer with a love for storytelling.
I recently completed a bachelors in English Literature and Creative Writing from the University of Waterloo, where I wrote award-winning essays, short stories, and creative imitations in several distinct voices and genres.
I’ve since brought those skills to bear upon my quarantine-born dream project: ROSETIA, a science fiction role-playing game about first contact with a race of plant-bearing extraterrestrial turtles. Moral conundrums ensue.
I have no illusions about how impossibly large an RPG-sized project is. All I know is that making it—fleshing out the world and the dynamic characters who live there—has been the most rewarding experience of my life.
I want to take that passion into the industry. To learn from the best, and contribute my best in kind.
