Nadia Oxford, born Nadia Eisner, gave away most of her personal secrets in this book, but she's happy to do a recap for you. Nadia entered the Game of Life in 1980 - not to be confused with the board game Game of Life, which has little plastic pieces Nadia enjoyed chewing on even past teething age. As a college dropout, Nadia had more than enough time to slum around the internet. She started writing about games for websites and magazines in 2004, and if this lumbering LiveJournal entry is any indication, she's still doing it. When Nadia isn't writing, she's podcasting. She's the co-host of the Axe of the Blood God podcast, which talks about RPGs old and new, eastern and western. She's also a regular on Retronauts, which is a podcast for retro game fans who've been in outer space. Just kidding.

Please listen to Retronauts even if you've never been to space. Loser. Nadia lives in Toronto with her husband and whichever cat(s) the universal cat distribution system foists upon her at any given time.
