In 2001, Julie Mack was interviewed for the Lois & Clark Nfic Archive.

This interview was part of a series of checking back in with previous interviewees in the series: "Welcome to the Writer's Showcase *new* monthly feature!! Have you ever wondered what happend to your favorite writers? Are they still a part of FoLCdom? Have they moved on to bigger and better things? (Who am I kidding, there's nothing better than LnC!) Are they still writing at all? Well, look no further ... At the beginning of each month we will feature a previously showcased author, beginning with those authors who were interviewed by Annie Lansbury when she founded the idea and web site of The Writer's Showcase."

Some Excerpts

Although a FoLC is forever, are you still an active part of the fandom?

I'm thinking that "active" is a subjective term. I don't spend a lot of time online and haven't gone to a chat room in a long while. So, in that sense I'm no longer active. But I am still an L&C fan and I think I always will be. I have all the episodes on tape, but haven't seen an ep on TNT in a long time. Every once in a while I pull out my L&C stuff and reminisce. I continue to read fanfic (kudos to Wendy Richards and all the newbie writers ... great stuff!) and the various L&C message boards.

I remain a fan of Dean Cain's work and look forward to any future projects from him. IMHO, he is still the most gorgeous man in Hollywood.

Are you still writing? If so, what is/are your current project/projects?

Yes, I am. I haven't written any L&C fanfic -- or nfic -- in a very long time. There were lots and lots of writing assignments, term papers, and a proposal for a research project that were part of grad school, as well as the comprehensive examination at the end of everything. My muse wasn't happy being locked into APA-style writing and the formality of educational "babble", but she -- and I -- made it through. During 1999 and 2000, I wrote a series of non-L&C fictional stories. They're available at Anne's site, in the nfic section.

I'm currently writing a story titled "Good To The Last Drop". It's up to chapter 8 and should be finished relatively soon -- I hope. My muse is just so happy to not have to write any research papers that she's constantly whispering to me nowadays. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing ;)
