I've read some terminals in Trojan, Rubicon, and Red that seemed professionaly done, but then, I'm not a professional writing critic myself. I wonder what the odds are of getting Greg Kirkpatrick involved in this stuff again. It seems like a novel would be less of a commitment than a game, since you don't have to keep up with technology, and it's not as traditional to set release dates. I mean, some people take decades, y'know?
