Quiet Stories

This is the personal blog of Chris Bowring. He started it as a semi-professional, video game enthusiast, content creator / university student. He went through a few awkward years where he interviewed game developers on podcasts, wrote political commentaries and championed the need for mental health awareness. Now he's teamed up with some other guys, started this company, and talks in the third person. To find out what narrative driven games Chris and Quiet Stories are developing, follow this blog or check out Quiet Stories on Twitter (@OurQuietStories), Instagram (@quiet_games_mag) or Facebook (Quiet Stories).
