Gutwrenching to say that GGRecon will be closing its doors in two weeks. After 13 months battling against Google, we've run out of runway. The whole team is incredible, and working with them has been one of the greatest joys of my life.

Harry is a fantastic, fantastic writer. Guides, reviews, they do it all. They're also genuinely a brilliant person and I can't recommend enough that you — as I always say — hire them!

Was a pleasure working with Josh every day. Aside from being a friend, he's just a top-notch editor and writer. Having him on your team is a no-brainer.

Got that Friday feeling and feel like hiring me? After four amazing years as Trending News Editor, GGRecon is no more. With bylines at IGN, Digital Spy, Den of Geek, Yahoo!, Screen Rant, and more, I'm looking for TV, movie, and gaming work. RTs and DMs appreciated 🍿

It's not just games journalism. It's not just journalism. It's not just news.   Google's "Helpful content update" a year ago has decimated the internet and the profitability of the written word in enormous and impactful ways. And most people don't even know its going on.

Lloyd is one of my best friends - and one of the best of us. A true leader and someone who puts his team above all else, his leadership at both Dexerto and GGRecon guides me in how I approach my own roles. (FYI, he forgot to mention he REALLY likes pumpkin spice lattes 🎃)

I'm still available to commission for freelance guide work. With Black Ops 6 and Dragon Age: The Veilguard fast approaching, I'd love to pick up some coverage where possible. If you're looking for some, drop me a DM! RTs appreciated, writing samples below.

Dan is someone I've worked with for years now, and is an incredibly hard worker and fountain of knowledge for all things Pokemon (and Fortnite!) He also happens to be one of my closest friends. He's truly fantastic at everything he does - hire him for freelance opps!✨

Alas I have been made redundant from my role at Dexerto. Obviously this doesn't come out of nowhere with the way things have been going thanks to Google but I'm grateful for the time I had there, the incredible people I worked with and the opportunities afforded to me. 1/2

In my time doing this, I've met a ton of amazing people and learned a lot about myself and the industry. Taking some time to figure out who I am when I'm not doing this. If anyone knows of any work tangentially related to video games going around, hit me up, I guess. 2/2

Officially unemployed now I’ve had some great conversations over the weekend but don’t want to leave any stone unturned - please reach out if you’re hiring or think I could help level up your team!

Sul sul! Haven’t reviewed a game in quite some time now, so what better way to jump back into it with my thoughts for The Sims’ upcoming Businesses & Hobbies Pack? 💚 dexerto.com/sims/the-sims-…

A bit of news: Yesterday was my last day at Dexerto. I absolutely loved my time there and all the wonderful people I got to work with. I’m taking some time to rest but am open to new opportunities!

I've worked with Tyler for years now, and am heartbroken that he's no longer on the team. Anyone who can snap him up, do - it's been a pleasure to manage someone so hardworking, reliable, and just so keen to get involved with what needs doing. A proper star.

Bumping for the morning crowd folks! I'll be out of work in a couple of weeks, so I am VERY keen to talk to people about a new role. - Years of editorial/writing in games journalism - Fantastic contacts/PR connections across the board - Video editing + presenting experience 👋
