In 2001 or 2002, Debby Stark 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

Has your view on the characters and the show changed, and why?

It evolved during the show itself as, in my opinion, the writing got worse. The only good thing about that is that it left a tremendous amount of room for fanfic from those who really liked the show.

Are your tastes in fanfic, as well as your view of writing in general, different from what they used to be? Why?

I rarely seek out other fanfic. No other show since L&C has interested me that way. I *am* interested in other shows but think they are already well written and don't require fanfic to expand on anything.

Open forum for author comments.

I still have a lot of pictures and posters of L&C up around my apartment, so there's hope for me continuing to write L&C fanfic. I haven't folded my tent, unsubscribed from email groups, and stolen away yet. I hope someday to find a fan living nearby who will rekindle my enthusiasm so I won't have to say "Those were the days..."
