For this week’s Fan Spotlight we’ll be highlighting a few of our favorite wordsmiths out there. That’s right, this week’s spotlight is on Fan Fiction and we’ll be showing off a more dastardly side of the verse. So pull out your pirate hats, sing a hearty sea shanty, and let’s get started.
First up we have a recent entry from Rufus Sutuul called The Blackjack Gang. Rufus tells the story of a brother and sister that have joined a gang with cards of the deck carved on their helmets. While the story is short, it’s filled with excitement and I can’t wait for the next entry.

Next, Nova weaves a tale about a ragtag group of mercenaries hired to take down a Bengal carrier called The SuperNova Legacy. Needless to say, things don’t go quite as planned and leads to a perilous escape, and that’s just the first part of the tale! Though it was a year in the making, Nova has finally come out with part 2 and is worth the read.

The Adventures of Rooster and Zan tells the story of two lifelong friends traveling the ‘verse in a Cutlass. Initially started as a few guys trying to make a profit, the story has now spanned three chapters and they’re all excellent. DavidonSC knows how to tell a tale and I always enjoy reading his work.

Lastly we visit Blood-Red who has taken a more scholastic approach to his fiction. In his piece Bill Ladyman and Dr. Lee Chiang discuss the ecological impact our moon had on Earth and the UEE. This is a fun & different approach to our Fan Fiction and we enjoy it.
