On Usernames: StyleJam 2018

This summer, I participated in an online event called StyleJam. It followed the format of game jams, wherein a bunch of people sign up for the event on itch.io, a host and storefront for creative projects (mostly video games), and make small games on a set theme in a short time. Instead of games, though, the event was about style guides and creative bibles: creating documentation for real-life situations the way writers of TV shows and video games do for the worlds they’re creating.

I wrote a style guide for online usernames. You can read it here, and other StyleJam submissions here. StyleJam ends at the end of September.
