  • The Query Letter
    by Terje Johansen
    Terje Johansen never thought seriously of himself as a writer, before he replied to an ad from a game company.   They needed someone to do storyline writing for a computer game.   For incomprehensible reasons he was given the project, and—wonder upon wonder—they actually signed a handsome check for the result.   After that, it was a lot harder to take the long-time writing hobby as a hobby, and now the erstwhile computer science engineer cranks out fiction and non-fiction where he can find a square deal for it.   The day job as a network administrator will be retained until writing pays more. No hurry.
