CHRISTIAN SORRELL
!!! FREELANCE SLOTS AVAILABLE !!!
I am a lifelong writer and editor from Indiana, now living in Newfoundland. I have a wide array of experience from my time (and schooling) as a fiction writer and storyteller, past work as a journalist and business plan writer, recent years as an advertising and marketing copywriter, and years of experience as a tabletop roleplaying game creator.
Over the years, I have self-published a number of tabletop roleplaying game supplements, run a successful $18k+ battle royale zine Kickstarter campaign, worked as a writer and editor on a $135k+ Kickstarter campaign alongside a number of other creators, contributed to a $36k+ Backerkit campaign as an adventure writer, and have done a wide variety of work across dozens of exciting TTRPG projects.
Several projects I’ve worked on — such as Cloud Empress: Land of Cicadas (development), The Bloom (proofreading), and Triangle Agency: Normal Briefcase Collection (adventure writing) — have been ENNIE nominated. The Shrike, which I edited, even WON the ENNIE for Best Adventure - Long Form in 2025!
Services includes:
Content Writing - adventures, systems, lore, fiction
Editing - copyediting, proofreading
Development - game design, developmental editing

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
“Christian quickly identified Cloud Empress’ unique themes and gameplay elements, helping me revise and finalize the rule system to support what makes Cloud Empress different. Christian’s assessments and suggestions were backed up by a deep knowledge of games, and helped me move the project forward in a significant way.”
“Christian was the perfect choice to help write the starting adventure for Through The Void. He took the time to understand the system, integrated it fully, and helped expand the universe we were creating. His content was crisp and evocative. More than anything else, Christian communicated clearly through the process and was a pleasure to work with. I wouldn’t just endorse him, I would encourage you to reach out about working with him.”
“Christian’s editing is conscious of the system, setting, GM understanding, and player experience. It hits without the pads and is communicated smoothly with inquiry and suggestions that pull the best out of the writing while keeping it clean and concise.”
“Christian is a fantastic editor. They take their time very seriously and are a very meticulous bookkeeper as well. They will absolutely give you highest standard of work—on time, and often early. And they’ve got their rates at an actually affordable level.”
