Fan Comments

1995

I agree that DVS's Lovers zines and her writing in general is excellent. She always gives me the impression that she's writing a story, rather than writing out of sheer adoration for Kirk/Spock, Illya/Napoleon, or whoever, even when she does feature a standard slash couple."

There was a Garak/Bashir zine from DVS, which had avowed TNG-haters sneaking hours of reading under the table. Having read other of DVS' zines, I can believe it's her writing and not a resurgence of TNG interest.
