Hard truths and soft skills: 10 pieces of advice for novice gamedevs

Combining some of the lessons he learned in game design, narrative design and writing over the course of a decade, the speaker will share the insights he'd wish others had told him when he was starting out. This light-hearted but sincere talk is aimed at beginning writers and designers, but hopefully other specializations might take something useful away from it, too!
