• DraQla by Cathy Stewart and Douglas Cummings. When Guinan is attacked by a vampire, Q shows up as Van Q to do some vampire hunting. But things are more serious than they seem.
• Over To Q, Too by Cathy Stewart. The saga of Livingston the fish continues.
• Witness for the Prose-Q-Tion by Marie Logan. Yet another speculation on the origin of Guinan's relationship with Q, this one darker than most.
• Un-Q-Lar Maneuvers by Cathy Stewart. Q asks Picard to pretend to be the uncle of a small boy that the Continuum has targeted for destruction.
• The Apprentice's Sorceror by Marie Logan. When a race puts Picard on trial for the death of the Crystalline Entity, Q shows up and tells outrageous lies to get him off the hook... at least, Picard *hopes* they're lies.
• Equality Pt. II by Max Query. A senile and quite mad Q is destroying the universe, and Picard and the crew of the Red Dwarf are the only ones who can stop him. Crossover with Red Dwarf.
• More Maligned than Malignant pt. III by Annie Hamilton continues the debate, putting forth the notion that Q is a teacher by using "Q Who."
