Zine lists, post 1 of 5: All-B7 genzines, part 1
by Sarah Thompson 23 May '01

23 May '01

B7 ZINE LIST A ALL-B7 GEN FICTION AND POETRY ZINES Names of authors are given for standalone and one-author zines only. Two or more coauthors writing stories in the same series count as one author. Otherwise, assume an anthology zine with multiple authors and unrelated stories. For standalones only, a rough indication of length is given as follows: 1-39 pp. = story 40-99 pp. = novella 100+ pp. = novel Country abbreviations: AU = Australia CN = Canada DE = Germany (=Deutschland) NZ = New Zealand UK = United Kingdom US = United States mm = multimedia Note: Multimedia issues of zines primarily devoted to B7 (B7 Complex, Conquest, Lodestar, Time Distort) are included on this list, with cross-references on the multimedia list, in order to keep all issues of the zine together. Other multimedia zines that are mainly B7 in content are on the multimedia list, but with cross-references here. 54124 (UK, 1983?)

Zine lists coming up
by Sarah Thompson 23 May '01

23 May '01

Just barely in time for MediaWest, here's the current version of the zine lists. I'll cc to both Lysator and FC; apologies to those who are on both and so will get long posts twice. As ever, please let me know if you spot errors or omissions. Ordinarily I omit the erotica lists when I post to Lysator, but this time I will leave them in, just to make two points: 1) There is roughly about four times as much gen as erotica-- and the latter category includes not only slash but heterosexual publications like Horizon's zine =Ultra=, as well as mixed zines that include many gen stories. 2) Slash is hardly an American phenomenon. If you look at the indicators of country of origin for the various zines, you will see that erotica of various kinds has been produced in the same places that produce genzines, and in about the same ratio relative to each other. B7 slash, like B7 fiction in general, started in Britain, for obvious reasons. Yes, there are earlier prototypes in Trek fiction, but then that is true of all fan fiction; Trek was the first organized media fandom, so that is where =everything= of a media-fannish nature can ultimately be traced. The basic idea of slash-- putting romantic elements, especially same-sex ones, into a story that did not necessarily originally have them-- has recurred in many different times and places, including ancient Greece and seventeenth-century Japan. The slashy reworkings of the stories of Achilles or Atsumori can hardly be blamed on the citizens of a country that didn't exist yet! And FWIW, I think it is extremely improbable that it will damage an actor's career to have it become known that quite a lot of women have sex fantasies about him, regardless of the nature of those fantasies. IMO the opposite effect is much more likely! Susan Beth, I'm enjoying the H&H posts greatly. Amazing how well the descriptions fit. Emily, good to see you here again, under whatever name (I think I can guess who you are), and thanks for your kind words. Sarah

Re: A word of warning
by Sarah Thompson 23 May '01

23 May '01

I did get a laugh out of the description of Ellynne, Mistral, et al., as slashers. But-- Enough is enough. I am sick and tired of the ongoing harassment of this entire list by an ugly little troll and her friends or sock puppets or whatever they are. Not all of us have the expertise to set up a killfile, and in any case some of us prefer to get the list in digest form, for which killfiles don't work. At the end of this post I will insert the academic resume of Fiona Moore, which I found at <http://www.redrival.com/nyder/resume.html>. Please note that it is posted on a site available to the general public, presumably in order to advertise Fiona's qualifications; I am not doing anything improper in quoting it. This is the very same website given in the signature at the end of the appalling newsgroup post that Annie alerted us to. If the misbehavior of Fiona and her associates does not stop, then I suggest that we all start complaining-- politely-- to the University of Oxford, particularly the faculty of anthropology and the Fellows of St. Cross College. If she is using the university's computers to harass us, then they are partly responsible. Furthermore, I think is professionally unethical for the university to permit this person to participate in any kind of field work or research involving human subjects. Would those German businessmen have consented to be interviewed if they knew that the interviewer was in the habit of arranging for people whose views she disagreed with to be deluged with offensive e- mail? We might also make some polite complaints, as fellow fans, to the OU Doctor Who Society, of which Fiona is apparently president, according to their website at: <http://users.ox.ac.uk/~whosoc/ouwho.html>. And I'd very much like to know what connection Alan Stevens has to all this nastiness. Fiona says on her resume that she is his employee, and in her filthy little "comedy" newsgroup that he is her boyfriend: >So am I, for the most part-- my boyfriend writes and produces >"unauthorised" fan audios </shameless advert>, and I'm no >stranger to ripping the piss out of certain programmes myself. So, what does Alan say? What, exactly, is the nature of his association with this horrible woman and her attacks on B7 fans? I would really like to know, because it affects my decision as to whether I purchase another issue of =Zenith=-- or anything else he is involved in. Has Alan or anyone else started up another B7 list recently? Is that the meaning of the exhortations to join a "proper" B7 list? If so, I suggest we start forwarding Jenny's obnoxious posts to whatever list she is recommending that we join. Here follows Fiona's resume, from her website. I suspect that the "handbag" business may be some sort of drag queen slang, picked up from her research on that topic. Perhaps it means something like, "Ooh, you hit me with your handbag, you mean ole fing, but it didn't hurt 'cause you're such a sissy." And my interpretation of the "animal camouflage" line is that it is intended to be a threat, something along the lines of: "You SLASHERS [here defined as 'anyone who disagrees with Fiona Moore about anything whatsoever'] are pretending to be normal, ordinary people; but I, the mighty hunter, see through your camouflage, and I'm going to sic my big bad boyfriend Alan Stevens on you." By the way: I hereby notify anyone who is considering harassing me with offensive personal e-mail related to this matter that I will not consider such communications to be private ones and will reserve the right to repost them to the entire Lyst, and/or to Fiona Moore's academic supervisors.

H&H: intro comments
by Susan Beth 23 May '01

23 May '01

I'm currently reading "The Complete Writer's Guide to Heroes and Heroines", subtitle: Sixteen Master Archetypes, by Tami Cowden, Caro LeFever, and Sue Viders. The theme of the book is that there are eight classical 'types' of heroes, which they call: The Chief, The Bad Boy, The Best Friend, The Charmer, the Lost Soul, The Professor, The Swashbuckler, and the Warrior. They also identify eight types of heroines: The Boss, The Seductress, The Spunky Kid, The Free Spirit, The Waif, The Librarian, The Crusader, and The Nurturer. [That the number of types is the same for men and women at first struck me as either a great coincidence OR a contrivance on the part of the authors, but then I realized that you can pair the male/female types up, one to one, with the differences between the two being due to social and gender factors. Thus: The Chief = The Boss, The Bad Boy = The Free Spirit, The Best Friend = The Nurturer, The Charmer = The Seductress, The Lost Soul = The Waif, The Professor = The Librarian, The Swashbuckler = The Spunky Kid, The Warrior = the Crusader. I admit the pairing between Bad Boy and Free Spirit isn't very good, but all the others are quite clear, so that's what is left. The exception that proves the rule, whether you use the modern sense (that is, shows the rule is true) or the older one (that is, tests and * disproves* the rule) I'll leave you to decide.] The authors also give three ways these archetypes can be used: either your hero fits into one archetype the entire story (what they call 'core'), or your hero is changed from one type to another as a result of the events in your story ('evolving'), or your hero is mostly one archetype with a minor in another, leading to internal conflicts in his motivation ('layered'.) The first reason I'm bringing all this up is that I was amused by how exactly all the main characters in B7 can be slotted into a role (except Avon, who is layered, and possibly evolving on top of it.) I'm going to go through the cast one by one, using a bunch of quotes from the book's description of each archetype to show why I think they fit - this will be long, so I'll break it into a series of posts, all headed with H&H in the subject line so you can easily delete them all if you find it boring. The second reason I'm bringing all this up is that I suspect it ties into what 'Jenny Kaye' sees as our 'conspiracy' in refusing to look at and be convinced by the evidence she so clearly sees on the screen for her alternate views on the characters (for example, Gan as psychopath, Avon *not * having the mostly-hidden good traits that some of us insist on seeing.) The authors say we all (that is, people in general) have grown up being exposed to these hero archetypes our entire lives, from nursery school tales and fairy tales and on through every book read and hour of television or movies watched. As a result we are quick to spot the telling traits, and assign a new character to the 'proper' role - which is a great help to writers. OTOH (and this is my supposition, so don't blame the writers of this book) it could be that it also introduces a bias in what we consider 'important' or 'pertinent' evidence when we watch B7. Once we have (consciously or not) decided that Gan is The Best Friend, we note and remember the details that point that way, and dismiss as unimportant or 'accidents' of production/continuity errors details that don't fit. Obviously, someone who has decided to put Gan into a different slot, such as a non-hero one I'll call Covert Psychopath, will be struck by and puts great weight on the very moments 'The Best Friend' cohort ignores. And, contrariwise, the CP people will downplay the importance of what seems like overwhelming evidence to the BF people. So, in a weird way, I guess I'm saying 'Jenny Kaye' is right that there is a 'conspiracy' and/or 'programming' that keeps the rest of us from seeing things her way. ;-) It's just that the programming/conspiracy has nothing to do with being on the B7 lists - it's part of our heritage from living in our society - AND, of course, she is just as much programmed as any of us, she just happens to be using a different subset of the 'rules' than most of us.

H&H: Cally and Dayna
by Susan Beth 23 May '01

23 May '01

NOTE: all quotes are from "The Complete Writer's Guide to Heroes and Heroines." I'm leaving a lot out - most of which applies, some of which doesn't. If you want the latter, well, buy the book. It's interesting. ;-) -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Both Cally and Dayna are basically Crusaders. "Ready for action, the CRUSADER marches in. This is a heroine in the truest sense-deeds of valor are right up her alley. She is confident, tenacious and headstrong against opposition. Lines of battle have been drawn, and she never backs down from a contest." "The CRUSADER is a fighter, through and through....If she meets up with a brick wall, she goes over, under or around, but quitting is never an option." "The CRUSADER knows that action is necessary, and she is the one to get the job done. Fully prepared to stand alone against the enemy, she views those who fall short of her rigid standards with scorn. If necessary, she can become a one woman army." "The CRUSADER believes in commitment, but is much more committed to a cause than to her loved ones." Under virtues: "Courageous-This woman risks everything in pursuit of her mission. The CRUSADER faces danger, of any kind, without flinching. Brave in the face of opposition and bolder than many a man, she is fiercely resolved to win every encounter." "Resolute-the CRUSADER's determination is absolutely unyielding. She has decided which side is right and will not be swayed from her path. Her intense focus on every mission makes her an extremely formidable opponent." Under flaws: "Obstinate-The CRUSADER is not easily diverted from her mindset or her goal-no matter how misguided her ideas, actions or presumptions are." "Rash-Stopping to think is never high on her list. She rushes in regardless of the fears of those around her. Personal safety is not a priority for the CRUSADER. Her reckless attitude might win the battle, but it can also lose the war." "Opinionated-She has no trouble saying what she really thinks regardless of the wisdom of speaking up at a particular moment." Among suggested occupations: revolutionary. Where they differ is that Dayna has a touches of "Spunky Kid", while Cally is purely a Crusader. -- -- -- -- -- Okay, that's the end of the recurring women. You'll notice that, unlike the men, there is quite a bit of overlap. If you consider them to fall into two pairs, Jenna & Cally and Dayna & Soolin, both pairs include a Seductress and a Crusader. Two reasons this might be so occur to me. First, to the writers, Seductress might be *the * main reason to give females a place on the crew (or rather, for having actresses on screen), and given that they were fighting, Crusader is a natural archetype to fall into. Second, there would be major problems having some of the other heroine archetypes on the ship. For example: A Boss would be in natural conflict with Blake over leadership - which would be okay, except that that plot niche was already filled by Avon. And the remaining archetypes are poor meshes with the needed abilities to survive a rebel lifestyle: A "core" Spunky Kid, with her optimism, liking and being liked by everyone, a cheery and happy soul, simply doesn't fit into the B7 universe. Dayna has touches of this, but being gleeful over killing and weapons of destruction doesn't fit well. It's possible you could decide she has enough of the Spunky Kid in her to call her a layered archetype. The Free Spirit, an impulsive, emotionally guided cheerful type also doesn't fit into a band of rebels very well. Trusting that 'things will work out for the best no matter what' would make for a very short career as an outlaw. The Waif, who drifts through life in need of being rescued-she wouldn't even last as long as the Free Spirit. Finally, the Nurturer, someone who always puts the needs of the others before her own, well, anyone that self-sacrificing would end up dead pretty quick, too. A Nurturer has worthy talents and makes life pleasanter for those around her, but she isn't very useful in pulling off raids on military targets. Come to think of it, Zen probably was a Nurturer. Hmm. I guess ORAC would be the Professor supreme, and Slave....nothing comes to mind. I guess it just isn't a hero. Susan Beth (susanbeth33(a)mindspring.com)

H&H: Soolin
by Susan Beth 23 May '01

23 May '01

NOTE: all quotes are from "The Complete Writer's Guide to Heroes and Heroines." I'm leaving a lot out - most of which applies, some of which doesn't. If you want the latter, well, buy the book. It's interesting. ;-) -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Soolin seems to be a layered character, The Librarian plus The Seductress. This is somewhat contradictory, since one of the telling traits of The Librarian is downplaying sexuality and distrusting her own attractiveness, but there it is. I've already done the Seductress quotes for Jenna, but I'll repeat them at the end for those who get this message first. As for The Librarian: "She tends to think that only she has the answers. More often than not, she is right, but she can be a bit stubborn about considering other opinions. After reviewing her options, she chooses a path that suits her best. Once on course, she does well." "Used to getting things done on her own, self reliance is her middle name. And she likes it that way. After making all her decisions for so long, the thought of asking for assistance appalls her." Under virtues: "Efficient-The LIBRARIAN gets things done. She does not procrastinate, she does not dither, she does not make excuses. She looks a matter over, decides how best to accomplish the task, and then she does it. Making it look easy is one of her specialties." "Serious-She is not one to fool around. Life is work, not a walk in the park." "Dependable-Count on this woman. She never leaves anyone in the lurch. Her careful precision insures that the project is done exactly the right way with no mistakes. Once given a job, the LIBRARIAN sticks with it until certain it is completed and correct." "The LIBRARIAN: + is solitary + is analytical + is detail oriented" "Introverted, she is not distracted by outward appearances. She is able to take in fine points overlooked by more outgoing types." [The rest of this message is a repeat from Jenna's message, for Soolin's Seductress layer.] "The SEDUCTRESS holds enormous power over others, hypnotizing them with her charm and desirability. She is mysterious, manipulative and bewitching." "Men feel more powerful and desirable in her company, because she deliberately sets up that illusion. She may have a specific purpose in bewitching her man, but she can turn on the charm whenever she wants, even if she is not interested in anything particular." Under virtues: "Assertive-The SEDUCTRESS has learned that to be on the offensive is to her advantage. .... She does not care about being in charge as long as she is in control of her own destiny." "Strong-This woman is a survivor. The SEDUCTRESS does whatever is necessary to get what she needs. Enduring whatever she has to, she makes full use of her powerful attractions and mental acuity. When smoke clears, she is still standing." Under flaw: "Cynical-The SEDUCTRESS is jaded. Scornful of others, she trusts only her own judgment. She is suspicious of everybody, especially men. In her experience, everyone is in it for themselves." "The SEDUCTRESS: + is independent and smart + is able to size up people quickly and accurately + is cool and calculating + is very, very savvy" Susan Beth (susanbeth33(a)mindspring.com)
