Nathan Birch
I've written a number of articles for Cracked, and these days I do layout for the site (picking the pictures and writing the funny captions basically).
I also obsess about video games and pop culture at IGN.com, GameSpy.com and GammaSquad.com. You like those things, right?
Need somebody to write or draw something funny for you? Need help designing a magazine, pamplhet or book? I can be contacted at Nathanbirch2004@yahoo.ca
