The dark, brooding eyes looked up from the keyboard when HE entered the flight
deck.  The eyes followed the tempting body as the man took his position;
watched the hand absent-mindedly run thru rich brown curls.  The mind behind
the eyes cursed it's desire...and wondered...

That was pretty much it, actually - the original version was 50 words not
including the title. It went "... which _one_ of Servalan's costumes..."
Several people contributed to that particular thread, it was earlier in the
year.

The latest issue of the Avon club's newsletter arrived in the mail today.
If newsletters count as zines, then I think this is the B7 zine with the
most issues ever (though the all-fiction zine with the most issues is
Chronicles).

All of you who have enjoyed Paul Darrow's performances in "Guards!  Guards!"
should have a look at this if you haven't already.  The front cover has a
very amusing color photo of Paul reading the book with the dragon Errol
looking over his shoulder.  On the back is Paul as Vimes with another,
smaller dragon.  Inside are various people's reviews of the play and the
recent cons.

And in the back-- oh joy!-- is an ad for the forthcoming Avon #14, which
will be a story by Judith Seaman!  She is one of my very favorite B7 fan
writers, so I'm thrilled to know that she is still writing.

According to the info on the first page of the newsletter, e-mail addresses
for the club are:  annbown@aol.com  and  AvonPDS@aol.com  , and there is a
website at:  http://members.aol.com/avonpds

I've made MAJOR updates to the Ashton Press website over the last couple of
 weeks. These are ongoing still, though, so bookmark the page and come back
for
 a visit! Recently, I've:

1) Moved Southern Seven 11 and 12 to their own page. Now that both issues are
 in print, I'm taking submissions for the next one. You won't want to miss it!
 It's going to contain the last book of the Log of the Hellhound!
 
 2) Updated the main Southern Seven page to contain details about each issue
 (1-12) as well as added a link to an author index. I also want to feature
 reviews of the various issues. If you've written a review anytime in the past
 and would allow me to publish it on my page, please contact me at
 ashton7@aol.com. THere is also a guest book on this page where you can leave
 your comments about the zines and the site.
 
 3) Updated the Blakes 7 pictures page. I'm going to be adding new pictures
 over the next few days, as well. I added one link to another B7 site that was
 sent to me. I know someone else also wanted their link added but I can't find
 their e-mail. If it was you, contact me!
 
 4) Added an entire site for Hellhound. This site has a timeline, a story
 index, artwork, reviews, cartoons and much more. We're going to be adding
text
 excerpts, the Hellhound Shopping Club, a discography and a character cross
 reference, as well. If you've written any reviews of the Hellhound stories
and
 would be willing to have them appear on my site, please contact me at
 ashton7@aol.com.
 
 5) I'm working on adding a new section which will contain links to a lot of
 the older stories Leah and I wrote over the years. Right now, it will contain
 only Blakes 7 stories and one Beauty & the Beast story. I'm hoping to have
 this site up and live tonight or tomorrow. I'll be adding stories to it as I
 get them scanned in and formatted. 
 
 
 6) For the Highlander fans, I've finally uploaded the rest of my Syndicon
1997
 pictures and updated the Syndicon page. This time there are some drop dead
 gorgeous pictures of Peter Wingfield (the rest of the cast look nice,
too...).
 If you've got a page with Syndicon pictures that I can link to, please let me
 know. I'd love to add a link to your site.
 
 7) I've made some changes to the main page, including a new guest book.
Please
 stop by and sign it so I'll know you were there! We'd love to hear any
 comments you might have about our zines, artwork, stories, or website! I
 changed the cartoon a couple of weeks ago... stop by and see Leah's cartoon
 "Beatings, Brother" which won the art show prize at MediaWest this year for
 "Best Humor."

It wasn't mine - that was the girl with the amazing boots.  But I was one of
the ones trying to help her untangle it.  Poor girl - she'd spent hours
making this marionette only for the strings to be too tangled for her to
give it to Paul.  I really felt sorry for her.

Thank you so much for the kind words.  And thank you, Avona, for your
comments.  I'm glad to know that someone read it.  This is the first time
anyone has responded to one of my posts...I didn't realize it would be such a
thrill!!!!  ;)
