From: [m--ob--y] at [netcom.com] (Maelstrom Hobby) Newsgroups: rec.games.frp.announce Subject: Freelance Authors Required Date: Tue, 30 Aug 1994 01:00:53 GMT Maelstrom Hobby, an RPG publishing company specializing in anime and manga-stylized games, is looking for several aspiring writers to ful- fill the roll as freelancers. We are looking for writers with the talent to captivate and engross the reader in sheer delight as they "drink in" your epic storytelling format. Publications to be printed are both conventional supplements requiring the dissemination of static facts or rules involving the game milieu and those supplements with which both form and function need an extremely descriptive and imaginative author. Product lines in need of authors: "Marauder 2107"---A post-holocaust science fiction RPG based within a chaotic Japan filled with Nomads, Newlords, a great Citystate and Breeders (creatures resembling both demons and "conventional fantasy" monsters). This product is currently on the store shelves in various locations in Australia, Canada and the US. "Night Runners"--A science fiction/horror milieu based upon the popular anime and manga "Silent Mobius." In a future Japan where humans wield technology and magic, the fight for survival is occurring between a brave band of warriors known as Night Runners against the seemingly never-ending evil from beyond space and time. Prospective authors should submit a ten-page manuscript (single spaced) for each game system they wish to "apply." The manuscript needs to be recent (produced within the past six months), unpublished, and within a similar vein as to those entries described above. [Note: Owners of Marauder 2107 may use any information contained within the sourcebook to use as reference for submitted material.] This offer possesses no deadline as we're always pleased to receive both writing and artist submission.
