  This book offers an unflinching look at the creative and structural challenges of storytelling in interactive media. Drawing on over 30 years of industry experience, Kelly Vero explores the rich interplay between narrative, design and technology, making the case for why story is foundational to player engagement, emotional investment, and lasting value in games and virtual worlds. 
   
  The book unpacks how narrative design works across different genres and platforms. Vero brings the listener inside the design process, examining iterative workflows, empathy versus hypothesis testing, and the importance of building for diverse, evolving user bases. She draws from case studies, showing how stories are told not just through dialogue, but also through User Interface (UI), environment, mechanics, and player choice. 
   
  How Video Games Made the Metaverse is about building worlds that people want to live in. Whether you're a product lead, a writer, or a designer, this book explores how to integrate content, interaction, and community into a unified whole. Listeners will understand how to apply storytelling techniques not only to games and metaverses, but also to digital products more broadly. Vero's reflections on narrative, purpose, and legacy offer a roadmap for creating digital experiences that matter, not just ones that entertain.

  Black maternal mortality statistics have not shifted in the past thirty years. 
   
  The maternal mortality rate for Black patients is four to five times higher than it is for White patients. This is just one example of racism as a health and national crisis, but it is a particularly tragic one. 
   
  Birthing Liberation presents reproductive justice as the pathway to equity. The issue of reproductive justice may sound specific, but it is in fact the birthplace of liberation. Its four guiding principles—analyzing power systems, addressing  
  intersecting oppressions, centering the most marginalized, and joining together across issues and identities—have the power to lead us to collective liberation in all facets of life. 
   
  Collective liberation rests on the idea that in order for us all to have equity in this world—from the safety of birthing children to the ability to bring a baby home to a safe community to having access to resources, safety, and opportunities over  
  the long term—we must all become liberated individuals. 
   
  Sabia C. Wade is a renowned radical doula and educator inspired to create a guide for how we can all achieve liberation through trauma healing and reproductive justice. 
   
  Birthing Liberation creates a path to social and systemic change, starting within the birthing world and expanding far beyond.
