Jon Palace was what would best be described as a Game |
|
Producer at Infocom. I was pointed to him by Steve |
|
Meretzky, who stressed that Jon was the difference |
|
between success and failure for many Infocom games, and |
|
that the documentary had to have him in there, even if |
|
his name wasn't on any of the boxes. I interviewed him in |
|
Topsfield, MA, and we covered all manner of Infocom and |
|
interactive fiction subjects. His trajectory was odd - |
|
he'd worked as a book editor, and then wanted to get away |
|
from where he was living, and he saw an ad for Infocom. |
|
They were asking for an "Editor", which caught his eye, |
|
and it was Mike Berlyn at Infocom who'd said the company |
|
should have a proper wordsmith for their products, which |
|
Jon was. |
