Two things make a post

From that oh-so-dangerous time-sink known as TVTropes.com we have Dungeonmaster's Girlfriend:

Even Gary Gygax had DM's Girlfriend (Wife) moments; who knew?

And now for something completely different, and serious. Patrick Stewart speaks out against domestic violence, from first-hand experience:

I always liked him, now I like him even more.

Fanzine: A Change of Heart, issue #2, submission deadline 1/15/10

(crossposted)

After the success of my first heart-related fanzine, A Change of Heart, I've decided to put out another issue.

This one will be timed to come out during February, which is American Heart Month. If that issue does well too, then I may have an annual fanzine.

So if you wanted to submit something for the first one but didn't get around to it, or if you want to send me a letter of comment (LOC, in fan-speak) on the first issue (link goes to pdf version available from efanzines.com), here's your chance.

As before, emailed submissions are greatly preferred--to laurahcory at yahoo, but if you know someone who doesn't do email, ping me and I'll get you my snail-mail address.

Deadline for submissions is Jan. 15th, 2010.

Feel free to re-post in other fannish places.
