Marian Mendez is a prolific and popular fanfic writer.
A fan in 2004 wrote of Marian's Blake's 7 fiction: "Marian is well known in the fandom for her brilliant, short, outrageously funny humour pieces - and her gift for crackfic. While I could have nominated any one of a dozen of those beautiful gems, I chose this because it's something she's not as known for - a deadly serious, quiet, and heartfelt character piece." [1]
