I’m John Harris (they/them). I maintain the gaming blog Set Side B. I used to write @Play for GameSetWatch long ago. I’m Metafilter member JHarris. I wrote the books Exploring Roguelike Games for CRC Press, and We Love Mystery Dungeon for Limited Run Press. I’m on itch.io and there I maintain Loadstar Compleat, the archives of classic Commodore 64 disk magazine Loadstar. BLM! Trans rights are human rights!
