This Week's Guest ... JD Wiker
This week, our special guest is game designer, minis painter, and voice talent JD Wiker.
JD Wiker was a game designer for Wizards of the Coast and a co-founder of the 3PP design house The Game Mechanics, Inc. He’s been a disc jockey, an RPG designer, a video game developer, an amateur voice-over actor, and a miniatures producer ... depending on when in his life you caught him. He's worked on IPs ranging from D&D and Pathfinder to Star Wars and Warhammer Online.
Join Stan! and JD for a conversation that covers work as an in-house designer and what it was like to return to the freelance pool just as the era of third-party publishing was beginning to boom.
They’ll be live on YouTube on Wednesday, September 4th at 6pm Pacific.
While Stan! chats with JD, he’ll be working on a cartoon homage to Todd Lockwood’s cover painting for the supplement Book of Challenges.
If you have any questions for JD, post them in reply to this message. Remember that if you’re a paid subscriber, your questions get bumped to the head of the queue.
