My name is Jerónimo, a narrative designer and multimedia writer specializing in film, video games, and tabletop RPGs. I’ve spent most of my career writing for film, video games and TTRPGs. Most of the work has been in genre storytelling, so that means fantasy, horror, and sci-fi (three genres that I love). Although I like every stage of the writing process, world building and dialogue are amongst my favourites.
