He's working hard on them; The Terry who wrote these stories is a journalist who thinks that he is, in his soul, a science fiction writer; It's one of the hardest parts of being a writer, the growing up in public bit. Terry needed to be published. He didn't have the time to spend polishing his skills in private. Patrick Kearns allowed him to write fiction, to hone his craft, to discover, I suspect, what kind of thing he enjoyed writing)
