Reid started out as an editor and quickly became a designer, too. His most interesting work includes the Monstrous Arcana series for beholders.
"Thomas was born in a snowstorm in the mountains of Fort Collins, Colorado, two days before the chistmas of 1966.
Growing up in Texas, he whiled away his youth playing DUNGEONS & DRAGONS® games.
Eventually, Thomas found his way to Austin, where he met his wife while playing a DUNGEONS & DRAGONS® game.
Right after graduating from the University of Texas, he began to make a living builing wooden swing sets, just like any other well-paid history major.
Then, one fateful day, he answered a TSR advertisement in the back of DRAGON® magazine seeking professional editors, so he and Teresa moved to Wisconsin
in the fall of 1991.
Today, Thomas lives in the Pacific Northwest with his beautiful wife and two sons. When he's not editing games or writing fiction,
Thomas loves to go hiking and camping, play with his kids, and root for the Rangers, Cowboys, Stars and Texas Longhorns."
