Unless this is somehow fake news, it looks like ANet’s brought someone on board with lots of experience telling non-linear stories. The link in the twitter goes to an unrelated article laying out background and design philosophy (unrelated in that it never mentions GW2, very related in that it shows intentions towards GW2).

Thanks for the feedback, folks. I appreciate your comments and will say that consistent, complex, nuanced characters and storytelling are absolutely my goal as well. I’m soaking up all the existing story that I can, via gameplay, wikis, our novels, and lots and lots of conversations with my coworkers who have great insights (and opinions) on our expansive lore. I really love the game and am excited to be a part of it moving forward. Keep the comments coming!
