I’m Tod Foley, and this is what I do.
I’m a writer, game designer, editor, publisher, and conceptual artist who focuses on the art and science of fiction, from speculative literature to RPGs, LARPs, and virtual worlds. I’m freelance, I’m indie, and I’m genre-agnostic. For 40 years I’ve worked and played in the intersection of narrative and structure, and I’ll be your server this evening.
You might know me from…
• My indie RPGs DayTrippers, Watch the World Die, and CORE
• My work for Iron Crown, including CyberSpace and assorted modules
• My online directory and forum for indie game designers, Fictioneers.net
• My work on Fractopian Fiction and the UbiquiCity series
• My theatrical LARPs Ghosts in the Machine, Mediatrix and World of Ideas
• My Actual Plays on LegendsOfTabletop, MFGCast, and Fandible
…or perhaps somewhere else!
