LINDSEY PRIESTLEY - SENIOR EDITOR
Lindsey has worked for Games Workshop for nearly a quarter of a century, a length of service that affords her a unique insight into what makes the company special. A keen reader since the age of four, and having an author grandmother, it was perhaps inevitable she should end up in the Black Library. Science fiction and fantasy books have always been her preferred reading matter, though she does admit to having a soft spot for detective novels and lurid mystery. Her hobbies include Maine Coons, herbs, chocolate, virtual halflings and chickens.
NICK KYME - EDITOR
Hailing originally from the grim north (well, so he claims), Nick Kyme moved to Nottingham to start his career working for Games Workshop's White Dwarf magazine as a designer and staff writer. Since then he's donned his editorial pants (and hat), and made the switch to BL Publishing. Nick is a published author himself, having written several short stories and two novels. Nowadays though, his time is filled putting together working on the ever-expanding Black Library novel range.
RIK COOPER - GAMES WORKSHOP ACCOUNT MANAGER
The offspring of unholy union between James Hetfield and Lemmy, Rik spent his formative years working in magazine publishing helping to produce such luminous titles as
The Mr Motivator Workout Magazine and The Official Comic of
The Flintstones Movie. After 10 years trying his hand at every job in the magazine world Rik decided his time was better spent with something people may actually keep after reading it and joined the Black Library, where he somehow managed to swag the extraordinarily cushty job of selling Black Library novels to Games Workshop.
CHRIS BEAUMONT - CUSTOMER SERVICE ASSISTANT
Thwarted in his attempts to escape by pushing at the door when he should have pulled, Chris was acquired by BL
Publishing when his former owners refused to claim him. Kept busy at work by dealing with his customer service duties and organizing copies of the latest books for everyone, he spends his spare time reading, making models and playing around with his digital camera. He has in depth knowledge of many of our books and can tell you about a book he might have read three weeks ago, but usually can't remember where he just put his pen.
DAVE ALLEN - WEB DEVELOPER
Dave was born in Ascot & spent the first 5 years of his life in a probation hostel near Windsor. After studying Technical Theatre Studies at university he rejoined his family who were now living in Carrickfergus. There the policies of the New Deal & the Good Friday Agreement ensured he lived long enough to get a qualification in Web Design, which led to him joining Games Workshop to fulfill his life's ambition of getting paid to write about goblins & other sorts of flibbertigibbet. Dave likes to listen to the Fall, Nick Cave, British Sea Power & the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band.
