Back when I was in college I submitted an article called "A Guide to Undercover Missions on Low-Tech Planets" to the now-defunct Traveller Magazine. They paid me but never published it.

But now it's in Traveller Compendium 3!

So that makes me happy. My years of playing sci-fi RPGs because I was too hipster for Dungeon & Dragons have been totally worth it.

unfortunately, I cant link you to it or tell you what it was about, because I sold the rights to it when they bought the article from me. But, it involved a gay biologist who asks the player to rescue his kidnapped husband from a medieval kingdom, and to my surprise they didn't change it to a kidnapped wife. So that's a step forward for progressivism.
