Brandon Haag – Editor

Copy and Dev Editor working primarily within the Progression Fantasy and LitRPG world, focusing on world building and interpersonal growth.

Overview

Howdy,

I'm a long time reader, having gotten into the LitRPG scene almost by accident by helping a few authors with worldbuilding details and then that spiraled into a career. Since I began editing back in 2018 I've worked with, for, or around every major publisher in the LitRPG world and call most of the long time writers and staff friends. I've learned under the tutelage of Nick Kuhns and Jay Taylor, the two best editors in the genre, and still call then friends to this day. This builds up to almost 8 years of experience in a genre that hasn't been in the western reading space for more than 9 and personal connections to MDP, ShadowAlley, Aethon, Portal, and many other publishers that are still expanding and competing with traditional houses to this day.

I grew up gaming and reading, including learning Latin, two dialects of ancient Greek, a few forms of Anglo, Old French, and a bit of Norse Runic so that I could better understand the myths and legends I was so fascinated with (I was an odd child). Now I spend my free time running tabletop games for friends, going to writing conventions, and discussing outlines with newer writers.

I have worked with first time indie authors, renowned publishers, up and coming rookies, and stay at home moms. Anyone has the ability to bring their worlds to life and I hope I can help lead you down this journey!
