Summary
From the publisher:
When Daniel Jackson dies during the events of 'Reckoning,' Jack O'Neill impatiently waits for him to return, as he always has in the past. But it never happens - and finally the general accepts his friend's passing and leaves the SGC to retire for good and spend the remainder of his life in his isolated cabin in Minnesota, alone. Two years later, a child, badly traumatized and not capable of speaking, but strangely familiar, walks through the gate. He is carrying a message of great importance, but before he can reveal it, he has to get beyond his deep fears and find his way back to life. Jack O'Neill takes the boy home to Minnesota where the two of them slowly bond and find a way to heal themselves. A straying horse is their only companion, and together the little family is on the search for peace and answers.
About the Zine
Usually I keep telling people I like my stories to be available for anyone. I won't charge money for my work simply because I believe every fan should have the possibility to read my stories for free, especially in times like this where money is often tight. But when the Japan disaster happened on March 11th, and when it continued to get worse and worse after the first huge tsunami had hit, I knew I had to do SOMETHING... So the idea of doing SOMETHING to help, grew into the plan of making a zine and donating all the money to a charity supporting Japan. But I didn't have a story up my sleeve that would be finished and ready anytime soon. Yet, I didn't want to wait too long because Japan can use any help they can get now. After thinking about it back and forth I decided that A Place to Heal would be the perfect story to turn into a zine. I'm aware that A Place to Heal isn't a new story and I will leave the original version up on my site for everyone to read. But the new version – the fanzine – has been revised. It still is the same story and I didn't add many new segments. But I think it has a better flow to it now and I worked out some of the kinks the original story had. I also added artwork to it, which is probably the biggest difference to the original version. A Place to Heal will come to you with 16 manips and cover art. The zine has 85 pages as a doc file (38308 words) and can be opened with Word and Open Office. I can also send the zine as PDF for Acrobat Reader if you wish.[1]
