File:Rigel1art9.jpg|from Rigel #1, from what appears to be a self-insertion story, "Rift Crossing: An Obligation Between Universes" Falkowitz commented on this story in 1979 in Southern Star #5: "By many definitions, ECHOES is a Mary Sue. Now, I don't mean that as a put-down; heaven knows, I've written one myself, and ECHOES is in general better than my ghod-awful "Rift Crossing"."

Image:timewarp2back.jpg|from Time Warp #2, "Grooming the Steed" -- from the editor of "Time Warp": "Oh yes. My bacover. THAT, my dears, is the illo that spawned a fanzine of its own. Seems Amy Falkowitz believed me when I said I liked dragons and wanted an illo of one. I saw this, and wrote back, "Why not do me a whole portfolio of dragon illos?" So she did. THEN I said... anywho, the end result was PERN PORTFOLIO, a McCaffrey zine."

Image:princesstapes2-14.jpg|from the art portfolio in The Princess Tapes #2, Amy Falkowitz envisions The Other: "Luke's mother, Jaylahna Skywalker, has been in hiding for many loing years. After the triumph and horrendous revelation of Darth Vader to Luke, Yoda summons her out of hiding, to bring about the beginnings of the revival of the Jedi. She is the the unknown Other: Darth had believed her dead, and is not ready for her return. She is the Phoenix Arisen, summoned out of flame and ash and darkness; she comes with other Jedi of many species to challenge the Dark Lord and redeem herself (for she had indeed yielded to Darth cunning seduction: Luke is the son of the Phoenix and the Black Dragon.) The Phoenix Rises, Returns, and the Light is Reborn."
