Just Words

Just Words: A Collection of Viggorli art & fiction is a Lotrips slash fanzine focused on the Viggorli pairing. It was thought up and compiled by Siochan to benefit the charity Médecins Sans Frontières. It was published in 2005 through cafepress.

The zine is 292 pages long and features cover art by hazyshade, 16 pieces of original Viggorli fanfic, a poem and 5 original illustrations. It also features meta in the form of an essay and some "surveys" (questionnaires) filled in by 5 of the fandom's writers. Most of the contributors used different names/pseudonyms than those they were known by on LiveJournal.
