Corrie McCue

Creative Writer/Game Writer/Narrative Designer

United States

I'm enthusiastic about all kinds of creative, strategic, collaborative writing endeavors--tv, radio, print, YouTube, commercials, and games..although, I have a special soft spot for games. Naturally, I always imagine several scenarios unfolding as I daydream. Games are all about redos. I love..love..love redos.

I specialize in characters and dialogue. I'm deeply addicted to exploring the psychological underpinnings of this illusion we call life.

In addition to writing, I also enjoy sound design, especially unusual subject matter and voice over. You can find an example track on SoundCloud here:

Halloween Hijinks

The assignment was to write a short story using any piece of art on display at the Butler Museum of Art as inspiration. My original piece has been reworked. In 2022, I changed the format and the costume of the trick-or-treater. Since the piece of art used as inspiration would no longer make sense with this new version of the story, I will leave it unmentioned. I enjoy the challenge of repurposing past work.

I Dance

The prompt was to write from the perspective of someone with a much different life from my own. Although the profession described is not one I have directly experienced, I had a close friend whose shoes I slipped into for this piece.
