Interesting

At brunch yesterday, someone suggested I read up on "The Ray Wars" in Due South fandom at the Fanlore wiki. While I was there, I began to rummage through articles on other fandoms or fanfiction sites, especially ones that I've been involved in. There was less about the UCSL in the Buffy fandom than I'd expected, but I got about what I thought I would regarding Smallville.

It was Stargate SG-1 which surprised me. Several of my stories -- all but one of them gen -- have been linked directly in the articles about the 'zines in which they originally appeared. My Chaplain series is one of the stories listed under "Christianity and Fandom." By no means are mine the only stories linked, but it never occurred to me that "Time Was" (one of my weirder stories), "Teal'c's Thanksgiving," and "Campfire Stories" would be, for lack of a better term, important enough to be linked. It's not like every story mentioned in the 'zine lists has a link, either.

Not all of my stories in the fandom have been linked (even the gen ones) by any means, but this is the only one of my fandoms where I have a direct association -- and I know I didn't do it.

You have a fan?

Apparently. At least in one fandom.

BTW, the book I'm hoping you and [livejournal.com profile] ellen_fremedon get copies of soon so I can discuss it with someone face to face is Jo Walton's The Just City

Payday should be Saturday, and, if not, it's Tuesday.

Fanlore will link any zine stories we can find, but finding them is a pretty haphazard process. Your stories are on AO3, under the same name, and with the term "zine" in the notes (at least in the couple of cases I checked) which makes them a lot easier to find and link than some.

Now, being linked on the Christianity page, that's probably a fan.

Thank you for the clarification. Good to have a solution to the mystery.
