Here's a sample of the cover art which will of course render much better in the published version

 

This anthology presents authors who have honed their craft writing fan fiction for fans of Forever Knight, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, White Collar, and similar television shows.  Each has a personal following in those fandoms, and many have either a professional writing background which they have brought to their fan fiction or have founded a professional writing career on skills learned writing fan fiction. 

The editors of this anthology have extensive fan fiction writing backgrounds.  Jacqueline Lichtenberg has a bibliography of hardcover and mass market sf/f, plus nonfiction such as Star Trek Lives!  Jean Lorrah, sometime collaborator with Jacqueline Lichtenberg, is author of the famous Night of the Twin Moons fanzines, and several Best Selling Star Trek Novels from Pocket Books in addition to a broad selection of original works. 

These stories total approximately 100,000 words

The Face On The Coin
Thursday nights, 8pm, NBC. For three years, I knew exactly where I would be at that time - watching Star Trek.  ... I first recognized myself in the writings of others. Now I hope that others will find themselves in what I write.

Laura Wise
Thin White Duke In Sneakers
Novelette

 
Laura describes trying her hand at fanfic as giving her a chance to find out what she loved to write as well as read: plot, magic, mystery, comedy, romance. Over the last several years, it has become more than a simple exercise, allowing her to share her beginning work with an appreciative, if sometimes critical, audience. Fanfic lets her re-imagine what she already loves, and it has led her to building her own worlds on her own terms. Humorous love story between a human and a vampire.
