In 1995, I published a short bit of fiction for Shadowrun in the Shadowland fanzine,
as well as the Learning and Improving Skills system that our gaming group had created as a house rule. These
articles caught the attention of the folks at FASA, and before we knew it, my writing partner John
Jacobson and I were full-fledged FASA freelance writers.
I later went on to do some solo work for Crimson Skies.

| Shadowrun - Shadowland, Volume 2
December 1995
This volume of the Shadowland magazine contained the first version of our Learning & Improving Skills Rules as well as a fun perspective on Shadowrun magic entitled A Runner's Guide To Magic. These were the first works we ever had published.

| Shadowrun - Shadowrun Companion
1996
The first official FASA sourcebook we were published in. The main thing we did for this was a re-print of the Learning & Improving Skill Rules and the Shadowrunner Retirement section. We also submitted a variety of optional rules, some of which appeared in the Companion. Our treatises on Docwagon or Cyberware were originally written for the Companion, but didn't make the final cut.

| Shadowrun - Target: UCAS
1997
Our biggest work! John and I did the entire Chicago section for this sourcebook, including all of the fiction/color text and the optional rules regarding Strain III Beta, ghouls as player characters, Astral Voids, and Free Bug Spirits. There was even a brief appearance of Holly Kazinsky, the main character from Atlanta Blues.

| Shadowrun - Target: Smugglers Havens
1998
Not much to speak of here - just a one-pager describing the End Run, a smuggler's route from Denver to Aztlan. The short story End Run was supposed to be a fictional intro to one of the sections, but didn't make it into the final version.

| Behind the Crimson Veil
1999
I contributed the Enforcers pirate gang, as well as the Boarding Party rules for this
sourcebook.

2000
I did three planes for the CS aircraft book, including the Kingcobra, the Zion, and the Behemoth -
the three planes featured in the Great Helium War web serial.

A Crimson Skies campaign book featuring Paladin Blake and his premiere security firm, Blake Aviation Security. I wrote nearly all of this sourcebook.

Though it was never published, I did some scenarios and characters for this sourcebook on the nation of Hollywood.
