The Zander Nyrond Fanfic Poll

A many years ago, when I was young and dribbling, as some of you may know, I practiced fanfic scribbling...

I finished two and three-quarters Blake's Seven stories. Two and a half of them were published, two in the second and fourth issues of a zine called Frak, and the half as a self-contained thing called Links. Today I resurrected both halves of Links from the depths of the LocoScript files in which it was hidden, and while I have developed somewhat as a writer since then (gods, I should *hope* so) it doesn't actually read that badly. There is no slash, and the story does not revolve around who gets off with whom (though there is some of that going on in the background): what I was trying to do was end the series the way I wanted it to end, and I think I succeeded without being too contrived about it.

It seems unlikely that the second half would be publishable now (is anyone still writing B7 stuff?) but it kind of irks me that I never got it all out there.

So...

[Poll #951781]

What do you think?

So you want me to cover it all up again, is that what you're saying? :)

I read in Janet's intro to "Powers" that one of the theories about the Liberator that I explored was in fact yours. Let me know which so that I can assign appropriate credit.

Was it my idea that, since Zen could auto-repair, it might be able to rebuild itself from the debris ? And you "personalised" it, by (if I remember aright) having Zen "go postal" on the corroding agent, and use *its* remains to start the process off (?)

Sounds plausible. When I get the story up, lo there shall be a co-credit.
