He is well known for his detailed pencil work and his focus on portraits. Morgan was often listed among favorite artists in the 1990s<ref>See [[1993 Virgule-L Fan Fiction Survey]]. </ref> In 1989, Morgan was a panelist at [[Koon-ut-Cali-Con]]. ==Collaborator== Morgan published fanzines under the name [[Xenon Press]] with [[Brendan O'Cullane]]. The pair also used the pseudonym [[Sean Charles]] to write [[slash]] and het fanfiction. By 1992, the two had a parting of the ways and their zines were published by [[Ann Wortham]]<ref>[http://groups.google.com/d/msg/rec.arts.tv.uk/RXZVaE_UaKk/J-vjBOe5MoUJ More On B7 Zines] post to [[rec.arts.tv.uk]] on April 16, 1992: "''Adrian Morgan and [[Brendan O'Cullane]] had a parting of ways, and each claimed the other had the money and list of who had paid for the zines. A lot of fans, myself included, lost money to these two. [[Ann Wortham]] now publishes [[Destiny (Blake's 7 zine)|Destiny]] and [[Different Destinies (Blake's 7 zine)|Different Destinies]]''.''"''</ref> and then later by [[Bill Hupe]]. A fan in early 1994 wrote: {{Quotation| Ya know, every time I think I have a handle on what [[Lezlie Shell|Lezlie]] is saying, that in her vision slash constitutes female sexuality expressed by women writing about heterosexual men having sex with each other (maybe) I come smack up against a collection of stories by Brendan OCullhane and Adrian Morgan, two gay guys that wrote good, solid,emotional *slash*. Brendan collected the stories into one zine that I scored last year (Double Vision). I enjoyed all the stories. They are explicit without pretzelism, erotic and fun. They do light and sweet S/M. I don't mind their A/V, which says a lot. Their A/B is good. They capture the 'distilled intensity' I like, and manage to stay true to the characters (at least mostly the way i see them), and the universe. One of my favorite zines. Are Brendan and Adrian just an aberration? I've never met either of 'em; did they learn a writing style just to please a certain market? or was slash what they wanted to write anyway? And where do these stories fit? <ref> from [[Virgule-L]], quoted anonymously (May 17, 1994) </ref>}} ==Awards== * [[Fan Q Award]] (for art in [[Vice Verse]]) (1990) * [[Major Oak Awards]] (for art in [[Longbow]]) (1991) ==Published Zines== [[Xenon Press]]: * [[Destiny (Blake's 7 zine)|Destiny]] *[[Songs of the Seven (Blake's 7 zine)|Songs of the Seven]], Blake's 7 filk *[[The Plain Man's Guide to Alien Invasions]], a Blake's 7 fan club zine *[[Professionals Calendar]] - two calendars (1991 & 1992) featuring his slash art ==Sample Fiction== * [[Dearest Enemy]] (with [[Brendan O'Cullane]]) (1991) * [[It Was Real for the Children]] (with [[Ann Wortham]]) (1993) * [[Pick Up the Pieces]] (with [[Brendan O'Cullane]]) (1990) ==Zine Contributions== ===Blake's 7=== {{Div col|colwidth=20em}} * [[Aquitar (Blake's 7 print anthology published in 1988-1990)|Aquitar]] * [[Avon Calling]] * [[Avon's Gadget Works]] * [[Banzine]] * [[Before & After]] * [[Blakes Doubles]] * [[Blake, Rabble and Roll]] * [[Cold Fish and Stale Chips]] * [[Dark Between the Stars]] * [[Destiny (Blake's 7 zine)|Destiny]] * [[Different Destinies (Blake's 7 zine)|Different Destinies]] * [[Double Vision (Blake's 7 zine)|Double Vision]] * [[Eleventh Sector ]] * [[E-Man-Uelle]] * [[Fire and Ice (Blake's 7 zine)|Fire and Ice]] * [[Forgotten Seven ]] * [[From the Log of the Hellhound]] * [[Gambit (US Blake's 7 anthology)|Gambit]] * [[Hip Deep in Heroes (filkbook)|Hip Deep in Heroes]] * [[Magnificent Seven (Blake's 7 zine)|Magnificent Seven]] * [[Magnificent Tails]] * [[On the Edge (multifandom zine)|On the Edge]] * [[The Other Side (Blake's 7 zine)|The Other Side]] * [[Other Times and Places]] *[[The Plain Man's Guide to Alien Invasions]] * [[Power (Blake's 7 anthology published in the US) |Power]] * [[Powerplay (Blake's 7 zine)|Powerplay]] * [[The Naughty Bits (multimedia zine)|The Naughty Bits]] * [[Raising Hell (Blake's 7 zine) |Raising Hell]] * [[Resistance (Blake's 7 zine) |Resistance]] * [[Restal's Rules of Order]] * [[Return of the 7]] * [[Serrated Seven]] * [[Something...
