I agree - even though I haven't read Fury yet - with the poor representation of Tahiri in canon. Keyes wrote her well in The Final Prophesy though. I guess this IS why we write fanfic. Maybe we should start a Preserve the True Tahiri group. [face-grumpy] And if there isn't such an icon there damn well should be - grumble, grumble, grump.

Good points about Anakin's view of, and Tahiri's view of, her name, Lonewolf and Qwi. happy Names and self-identity are strongly connected, no doubt about that.


News on the magazine:
I'm working on the interview. Pied_Piper has finished a writer interview for the chit-chat section. SW24 is working on the new stories list.

We need:
Reviews (preferably of a mix of stories by new and old writers)
Someone to contribute their favourite canon Anakin and/or Tahiri piece
An article or two - is anyone inspired with ideas?
Artwork - any of you artists? Or have you seen any good A/T art in the Fan Art forum?

I have an idea or two about Tahiri in Fury. As in, what was said about her and Anakin.

Cool bananas, G_A - that sounds excellent. Just PM me it when you've finished. If you want to use the thread to bounce a few ideas around first, let me know so I can change the header to alert people to the topic. happy

I would need some help. I would have a hard time keeping it on topic. It is more a long the lines of what Jacen says, than what they do.

How goes the new issue, Tahi?

Did you get any help, G_Anakin? I haven't read Fury yet, so I couldn't help.

I'd be happy to help review. I couldn't work on any really long stories because of time contraints, but I'd be happy to review a one-poster, or a short story, like Tahi's "The Talk".

Okay - sorry about the long absence. First Christmas and New Year and then the horrors of the start of the work year, and back to having no boss - so having to do 1.5 jobs again. It's like Groundhog Day! wink

Anyway - enough grizzling.

So far we have:
The interview
The New Fics Section - Big thanks to star_writer24
The "Writers' Chit-Chat Interview - Big thanks to Pied_Piper
A short RPG update - Big thanks to JediAlly

What we need:
Reviews
Artwork
Someone to do their "Favourite Canon Passage"

Thanks for the query. We're getting there. LOL Albeit slowly.

G_Anakin
I really like your idea - and I've been wondering if a number of us could contribute to an article on the way Tahiri has been portrayed since the end of the NJO. I've been researching the Force Heretic books, The Final Prophecy and TJK, and have some useful passages to work from. Would you be able to PM me the ideas you mentioned about what Jacen says about A and T?

What I think would work well would be combining my introductory piece on how Tahiri was portrayed in the NJO with your ideas - and then I'd like to have some other opinions in as well. Of course I would make sure everyone's ideas were credited to them, and cite them properly. happy

So everyone - could you PM me any thoughts you have on this topic:
What is your opinion of the way Tahiri has been written in the Dark Nest and the Legacy of the Force series?

Don't feel you need to write some kind of essay - an' no need to write propah or anyfing wink Just bang your ideas down and send them to me. The more material we have, the more interesting it will be. happy

The challenge
Pied_Piper has gallantly agreed to take this over as Whitey is unable to do it any more. Whitey - thanks so much for doing such a fantastic job for Anahiri hugs You are da bomb. happy

Kick - let us know if you need help at all with the challenge and feel free to ask for volunteers.

Yoda - are you still able to judge? Or is RL holding you captive. No problem if you're too busy. happy

Lonewolf - I'd be honoured if you wanted to review The Talk. But just do any of the new stories that you want to - and yes a short story or songfic review would be wonderful. happy



Anyone else want to do a review of one of the new stories? There are lots of new ones, so just choose one and go for it. And then either PM it to me or email it to me at candi.young@stonebow.otago.ac.nz



In the last issue we featured cover art. So if you have new covers for stories posted since then could you send me the links?

Has anyone seen any artwork at all that has either A or T in it?

I think that's all for the time being.

Good news! I have found two lovely new artists who have very kindly allowed us to post their work. The extra good thing is that they have quite diverse styles - so you are all in for a treat. happy

Remember to read the post above and send me any thoughts on the article topic. Also - remember: reviews, reviews, reviews. wink

And did I mention reviews?

Okay troops - the magazine is looking good. All we need are reviews, chit-chat and somebody to write about their favourite canon passage. Any takers?

I need more chit-chat from writers - so please send me a blurb about your current stories that feature either A/T or A and T by themselves. This is your chance to advertise your A/T stuff - remember you can include links to your stories/songfics etc and also a short excerpt if you like. The more the merrier. As it's been a year since we last posted, you can include anything written in that time frame.

If you new cover art - send me that, too. happy

Also you still have time to send me your thoughts on the DN and LotF portrayal of Tahiri. So far I have some material from Thrawn, Kidan, JediAlly, TahiriSoloFan and Morgoth. If you've sent me opinions and your name is not there - can you PM me as I may have put your piece in the wrong folder. I'm running off three computers at present so things sometimes get lost! (Especially when you're ditzy like me!)

That's about it. So just in summary, we need:
Reviews
Chit-Chat
Opinions
Favourite passage
happy

You're a wee cracker, Mags. And you're going to fill the favourite passage slot? Cool. happy Thanks.

In that case - all we need now is chit-chat and any cover art done in the last year. And if anyone wants to do reviews - please go ahead. Any A and/or T fic written in the last year will qualify.

Kidan - do you have cover art?

These favorite canon passages you're talking about - are they to come from the movies, or can they be from a comic or a novel.
