On a related note, the main GURPS Books site has a list of published books about Beasts, though it doesn't seem to include Pyramid issues (apart from one collection book, some of which have articles that would be useful, here.

That interest is I think the problem. Its been on the wishlist for a long time but few takers so far. PK did the Creatures of the Night series which was a horror based theme, not sure if that was as a freelancer or asst line editor.
Except for articles or adventures the rest seems to be from Kromm.
As for articles I would like to expand on my Animal Combat article.

Yeah, lot of work and a gamble on poor sales for both the writer and SJG which I think is why we have mostly seen staff writers tackle it.
I'd be willing to pitch a smaller project but I'm not well established and if sales were poor it might kill my chance to write the books I am keenly interested in writing (3 different magic systems and at least 2 more spirit related books). But I would so love to have someone, anyone finally stamp out the meme that GURPS needs a Bestiary. I'd much prefer to hear it needs more instead.
