Summaries
Summary from the Yadda Press flyer:
Yadda Press is proud to present a uniquely different zine experience :) JD Divas authors PhoenixE, Biblio, babs and Marcia live a double-life: we're also List Moms to the Alpha Gate Yahoo! Group, the best, the most active and the most creative Stargate community online, and not only in our humble opinion :) The Alpha Gate was formed in response to the loss of Daniel Jackson from our beloved SG-1 team, the aim of the community to celebrate the original and best team: Jack, Daniel, Sam and Teal'c. The Alpha Gate basks in the warm waters of DeNile, which ain't just a river in Egypt ;) In those lovely warm waters, we broke out the cocktails and tribbers experienced and virgins, to join with us in producing a zine which would help to support the Alpha Gate's fanfiction archive and secure its long-term future. The theme of the zine is DeNile - literally! We asked contributors to write stories which Make It Write where the episodes went wrong. The result is a dazzling array of slash and gen stories fixing episodes from throughout the seasons. Someone said of fanfiction that it was imagination calling to imagination; in Make It Write, we proudly offer proof of the truth in that. The zine is a celebration of the talent, creativity and friendships in our Alpha Gate community. [1]
Summary from a distributor, Agent With Style:
When Daniel ascended in 'Meridian,' a huge outcry went up in Stargate fandom. How could they essentially kill off one of the most popular characters on the show? Well, what if it never happened? What if a lot of canon things never happened? What if a group of fans decided to write a collection of 'fix-it' stories in which Daniel doesn't ascend, Janet doesn't die, Sam gets a second chance to make a first impression, Jack resolves some issues surrrounding his son Charlie's death, and more? That zine is here! Don't miss these mostly slash stories (3 of the 23 tales are gen) -- you'll be amazed at the fannish ingenuity of these authors. Was it all a virtual reality game? Is Daniel really back or is it just a dream?
