How did you begin to write for tie-ins?

I was ‘discovered’! Back in the late 90s, when I was writing fan fiction based on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (DS9) and posting it online. Out of the blue, I got an email from the editor of the Trek tie-in range at the time, saying that I’d been recommended to him as a good writer and asking whether I’d be interested in pitching a story for a forthcoming DS9 anthology.

I practically fell off my chair hastening to respond that I’d love to. That pitch eventually became my second DS9 novel, Hollow Men.
