geekiness

Yesterday my copy of Constricted By Plot arrived! I am the lead story. [livejournal.com profile] obi_ki has a Q/O/Xanatos piece in there.

And Sian found a VERY appropriate blurb for me:
"For a man born without one, family has been a growing concern for Solo. Many times his children have been threatened by enemies seeking to threaten him or Leia, or those looking to kidnap the Force-strong youngsters. Time and again, Solo and his allies have managed to defeat these threats, but each time, the pain of losing a loved one became all too real. When his children grew capable of defending themselves, Solo for a time thought his family was safe. He couldn't be more wrong."
From the official Lucasfilm line... Thanks, Unca Georgie!

Not to mention a gorgeous photo manip of the boys with Jacen (looking a bit like Tom Cruise) half-shadowed, between and behind them.

Last year was a digest sized zine with about 6 stories. This year's is full sized and over 200 pages.

Also, once we got my software working, my video got done in about 2 hours. Still at rough cut, must smooth it a bit. But turmoil is over!

Could you briefly remind me which story of yours is in there? You write so much, I'm getting confused (not that I'm complaining, mind *g*); is it one that I beta'd? If it's anything I'm remotely interested in, I will finally get off my tail and place an order. I'm more sensitive these days to the need for people to support their local zine publishers, now that I are one. *g*

It was "Simply Irrsesitible" the Luke/Han/Jacen piece. You bet'd it, and said it was pushing squick limits for the fandom.

6 Q/O, 2 JAG, Mummy, Harry Potter, Samurai troopers, X-Men and mine

Hi Angel I went to that site but I didn't see anything about zines. It looked more like professional-type merchandise. If they're the right place, how can I find the zine? Thanks. :)

Sorry,
