I'm pleased to announce that the well-known and well-respected developer Jim Perry (aka Machaira) will be joining me in authoring the book and implementing the engine for Level-Grind Online.

For those unfamiliar with Jim he spent 3 years as a programmer in the game industry from 1999 to 2002. Now he primarily writes .NET business applications by day and dedicates himself to the XNA and game development community at large by night. Among Jim's most well known achievements and involvements are:

* Microsoft XNA/DirectX MVP
* IGDA XNA/DirectX Forum Moderator
* GameDev.net Moderator
* Author of "Role Playing Game Programming using XNA Game Studio 3.0"
* Author of "Essential XNA 2.0 Game Programming"

Having Jim work on this book and engine with me is a great honor. Thanks Jim, let's make it a good one!

Nice resume there. Welcome Jim !
Hopefully we'll get more update from you, how's the engine progressing. Somehow Jeromy doesn't like to post that. :)
