temeres has a fascinating couple of posts about a "new wave" in Blake's 7 fanfiction in the late 90s/early noughties: here and here. An interesting moment when people were meeting and discussing online but still (mostly) publishing in zines.
Varia Lectio was just the best zine. I still have it on my bookshelf all sparkly and studdy though the glue has kind of eaten its way in. I was not too keen on (fan)zine culture because it seemed to pride itself on being hideous and charging a gazillion dollars for it (whereas punk zine culture prided itself on being hideous but only charging a loonie and some used stamps) but a web archive can't be studdy (if gluey)...good times...
My copy is tucked away safely in a box: I was scared of it falling apart. I really want to reread it now, a lovely thing. My other fave was "Sleer As Folk", tho' my copy has sadly gone walkabout *mourns*.
Eh, I tried to make ttba both cheap & pretty. I'm still proud that I managed to make some loose change for charity despite charging (as I recall) around half what Judith suggested I should.
