Out of the Blue (Dragonriders of Pern zine)

Out of the Blue is a gen Dragonriders of Pern anthology of fiction, poetry and art written and published by members of the StarRise Weyr. It is a quarterly newsletter. At some point, possibly in 1995, the fanzine switched to both a subscription printed and a free e-zine format.
From issue #19 in July, 2008: "Membership to StarRise/Igen Weyr is free. The fanzine is available in three formats: hardcopy, for which you will need to pay copying and postage charges; text, sent via email; and available on a password protected website. You must be a registered member of StarRise/Igen Weyr to receive the login and password for the webzine. The cost of the hardcopy varies with each issue, precisely reflecting the copying and postage costs. Like all Pern groups, we are free to accept world-wide memberships." 
By 2009 it was published only in electronic format.

==Issue 18==
Out of the Blue 18 contains 180 pages. The cover is by Talon Duning. The previous editor April Legate stepped down after ten years and two new editors took over publication: Anna Smith and Dave McCombs.
From the editorial: "After nearly ten years of running StarRise, I'll be stepping down as your Club- and Weyrleader. I've enjoyed the time I've spent making StarRise what it is today, but it's time to move on. I've become increasingly burnt out over the past couple years and it's shown in the neglect of the club. Rather than sit by and allow StarRise to become one of the clubs I've always sneered at, I've decided to step aside and allow others, with more enthusiasm, energy and time, to take over. This is my last issue with StarRise, as an editor, publisher, and member... As of this year's WeyrFest (June 26th), Anna Smith and Dave McCombs will be taking over StarRise. I wish them all the bsst and hope they have as long and happy a history with the club as I did."
