On how not to publish a fanzine.
[livejournal.com profile] jkb and [livejournal.com profile] walkerminion check this.

(I esp the note about giving chocolate to authors who finish on time...)

It came!

The new improved version of Sanctuary Moon arrived today.
Larger font, protective cover (inkjet illos do blur under damp hands) and no druids. (A stupid typo of mine that didn't get caught)

Very hot, very sexy. If you like Han/Luke slash at all, contact wretchedhivepress@yahoo.com for your copy!

Vampiric Jedi.
An AU about a corporate merger.
A fairy tale
A reworking of the end of RotJ
Poems by khylara
A 35th birthday present for Han, from his dad
Vignettes and stories
A very silly story by Vic Coopers
4 full color illos, 3 by X
Illos by Alex, Larrkin, Susan, Sayaka, Tina and ZP Florian

And an editorial by the sheep

Can I squee some more?

"From the Other Adventures of Luke Skywalker," a Luke-centric zine, is now taking submissions for its Premiere Issue. The theme is "That Time of Year."

A fertility festival that requires the fields be sprinkled with Jedi blood.

The arrival of the Springfest Nerf bearing gifts.

The Wookiee Life Day

A mid-winter light fesival


We invite you to speculate on these and any other holidays that may occur in a Galaxy Far Far Away. Gen, Het and Slash, in any rating, are welcome.

Writers' Guidelines (A bit detailed, but don't be frightened off. Most of this is for my benefit) are here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/valarltd/82607.html#cutid1


Story Deadline is September 1, 2003. Art Deadline is October 1, 2003.

"APRIL is the cruellest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain."

Seemed fitting.
I must be ovulating. Every male, and most females, look good to me.
And half the male profs have visited/flirted with me today. Even grouchy old Dr. E. Strong pheromones? I mean, I'm wearing a turtleneck! (and not a tight one either)

I was tempted to go proposition Barb in Engineering on my lunch break. She pings my gaydar even if she is married.


Also, was overcome by urge to create a Luke-centric zine (Small, around 100-150 pages), open to any pairing (or none) but having regular themes. Because I am a tech-writer, a nitpicker and a general believer in CYA, I started by doing the Writers' Guidelines. I worried they were a bit draconian and have been told they are nervous-making.

Did I intimidate myself right out of my pool of talent? )

I really need advice from editors with more experience.
These are mostly for me, to keep me even-handed and to have something to refer back to. I just want it all in black and white so nothing gets done "on the fly."

(I wrote Nuclear Reactor Operating Procedures. Does it show?)
