Mark Edwards: Mark never really considered a (semi)career as a freelancer given
how much time graduate studies take. However, a fortuitous meeting with an actual freelancer,
combined with immense drive times (with nothing to do but think) led to his first fan-submitted
work for AEG’s 7th Sea line. And after that it was all downhill. Since then in addition to AEG, he’
s written for games including 3.5/Pathfinder (for Adventure-a-Week.com), Call of Cthulhu (for
You Too Can Cthulhu), Serenity and Supernatural (for Margaret Weis Productions), Savage
Worlds (for Melior Via), Shadowrun and Shadowrun Missions (for Catalyst Game Labs), Witch
Hunter and Rotted Capes (for Paradigm Concepts), and various others (for Wolfshead
Engendering). Never one to juggle too few balls at once, Mark’s current projects include works
for Call of Cthulhu, Witch Hunter, and Postworld Games in addition to his usual work on his
very own living campaign, The Heroes of Altamira (using the 7th Sea RPG). This past year,
Mark got his highest freelancing honor to date when the Shadowrun Runners’ Toolkit (which
he’d written a significant portion of) won the 2012 Origins Award for Best Role-playing
Accessory.
