About Ben
Ben Richards has worn many hats. He worked as a freelance illustrator on a number of role-playing game books, and for some years maintained an adventure webcomic called Dungeon Damage. He spent two years in the 3D animation industry, helping to produce the award-nominated Zip And Mac early learning programme, and producing special effects for a number of other projects. He is currently studying design at Victoria University in Wellington, New Zealand, while preparing a self-published world-building project.
He also believes that chilli con carne can be made without chilli or meat, although he much prefers the classic method.
