Have you ever wondered why your spouse plays video games? What about your children, or friends, grandchildren, or co-workers? If you know someone who plays games, you’ve probably wondered what in the world is the draw to gaming? Damien and I dive into the crucial reasons behind why friends, family, co-workers, and classmates play games. We discuss how The Holder’s Dominion (a speculative thriller novel) shows behind-the-scenes insights to why people of all ages play games, and what is behind the draw in gaming. Ultimately, this book will give you the means to connect and relate to the gamers in your life.

When’s this book coming out? What is the “big draw”
to gaming?
March 1st, 2013!!
The big draw to gaming is the ability to immerse yourself in a different world, but still have the ability to socialise with a wide gamut of people. All from the comfort of your home/office/the bus.
Thanks for the kind words Genese! It was a delight having you on.
Agreed Damien! You nailed it.
Hopefully we get to connect again on another podcast someday!
