Anthony Mercier

Born in Penticton, BC

Lives & works in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

I began writing in the fourth grade and have pursued the passion ever since in various endeavors. Even younger, I played my first games such as Pokémon Blue, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and the classic Super Mario World. Early on, I showed an interest in creating worlds of my own and investing time in making my own stories. I published my first book in 2019, Sovereign Soul: Akin Minds; and enrolled in the Visual College of Art & Design (VCAD) in 2021. I currently work for Marshmallow Jetpack in the creation of Next Horizon, for which I'm doing narrative, UI/UX, and character design. I'm also working on a few indie projects of my own, but they're largely in the conceptualization state and I've made assets for them. I also run a blog on my website where I discuss my book, writing advice, aspects of game design, and more.
