That was the start of my career! My first (freelance) job was as the technical editor for Amstrad Action in its closing years. A great magazine, even in its dying days.

Future launched my career too. I started writing for .net in 1998 magazine when I was 15 and joined as a staff writer two years later. Fun fact: its editor, Richard Longhurst, went onto start Lovehoney.
