Marc Laidlaw
Marc Laidlaw (born 1960) is an American writer of science fiction and horror and also a computer game designer with Valve Corporation. He is perhaps most famous for writing ''Dad's Nuke'' and ''The 37th Mandala'', and for working on the popular ''Half-Life'' series.〔(Half-Life: Counter-Strike (PC) )〕
==Biography==
Laidlaw was born in 1960 and raised in Laguna Beach, California and attended the University of Oregon, where he tried, and was discouraged by, punched card computer programming. He wrote short stories and his first novel, ''Dad's Nuke'', was published in 1985. This was followed by several more novels over the next decade, but he worked as a legal secretary in San Francisco for a living.
Laidlaw had played computer and arcade games, but was not intrigued. It was not until ''Myst'' that his perception of these games changed. He obsessed over ''Myst'' and bought a new computer so that he could play it at his San Francisco home. With his new-found interest, he wrote ''The Third Force'' (1996), a tie-in novel based on the world created by the ''Gadget'' computer game. His favorite PC game of all time is ''Thief: The Dark Project''. ((interview) )
Working with game designers led him to feel that he wanted to help design an actual game. He joined Valve Software while they were developing ''Half-Life'' (1998) and worked on the game's story and level design. At Valve, he later worked on Half-Life's expansions and ''Half-Life 2''.
