Mythos Guru has an awesome interview up with Mythos programmer Marsh Lefler.

MyG: How did you first get into the gaming industry?

Marsh: I’m one of those people who grew up playing video games. I was a total nerd – I still have level designs/sketches of entire games I created in elementary school. By high school I was creating/programming my own games. I bring this up because that’s how I got into the industry - creating my own games; having something to show.

I did go to college and afterwards resumes were sent. Of course I got no replies, so I finally marched myself down to the only gaming company I knew anybody in, and showed them the games I had been working on since I was a kid. Got hired that day.
