Alternate Universe 4: The Writing, The Content

Alternate Universe 4: The Writing, The Content is a 1976 essay by Virginia Tilley and Anna Mary Hall, two of the four writers of a fanwork.
The topic is the fan-created Star Trek: TOS universe, Alternate Universe 4. It was written when the first two volumes were completed, and a third was in the works. 
The essay was published in Interphase #4 in 1976.
==Some Topics Discussed==
* Alternate Universe 4
* fan collaboration
* the challenges of physical distance, the postal service
* fanfiction decisions
* the loneliness of the long-distance fan
* shared universes
* alternate universes
* Star Trek: TOS
==About the Premise of AU4==
Alternate Universe 4 is a gen Star Trek: TOS Kirk-centric fanzine zine series with stories that take place in the shared universe known as Alternate Universe 4.
The name of the series refers to Trek universes. The canon Trek universe is the first, the Mirror Universe the second, the Kraith universe the third and this one the fourth, hence Alternate Universe 4. The premise centers around Kirk being court-martialed and eventually joining a secret organization of advanced aliens called Lightfleet (sometimes this is also called "Lightfleet Universe"). The zine is a psychological study of a hero rising out of the ashes of his own destruction.
This zine series "... ranks as one of the most outstanding Star Trek fanzines of all times. The publication gained immediate popularity, and was widely distributed." from Boldly Writing
This series was mentioned in Star Trek Lives!.

Alternative: Continuing the Epilog to Orion

Alternative: Continuing the Epilog to Orion is a Kirk/Spock 135-page slash novel by Gerry Downes. It is also known to fans as "Alternative 2/3" or "Alternative 2."
It is a sequel to Alternative: The Epilog to Orion. This fiction, along with two others, was reprinted in The Compleat Alternative.
It required an age statement to purchase.
The fanzine publisher chose not to credit the artists. The art is by Gayle F., Gerry Downes, Ruth Kurz, and Pat Stall (Stall's four illos fold out to four times the size of this full-sized zine!).
This zine was discussed in Not Tonight, Spock!. See Sexuality in K/S Fiction: Anal Intercourse Prolonged er uh Continued.

* Nebula of Orion (1976)
* Alternative: The Epilog to Orion (1976)

* The Compleat Alternative (2006)
Gerry Downes also wrote a short (16 page) "Insert For Orion" which was never published but which still exists in copy form. It was meant as an insert to the first zine, and explores the consequences of Christine watching Kirk and Spock make love at the ship swimming pool.
 
==From the Title Page==
"Alternative is the story of a love that transcends artificial considerations, written to honor those few who love another truly and who, twice favored, discover this love returned. May you find such love yourself, to light your days."

==Author's Introduction==
From the zine: 
==Its Origins ==
 
In 1978, rumors of a sequel to "Epilog to Orion" (which fans and Gerry both casually called "Alternative #2) were afoot: 
In 1979, Gerry wrote extensively of this sequel in Stardate: Unknown #5's editorial:

He asks Spock if when he was in Jim's brain during a mind meld, if Jim had any thoughts of same-sex relationships. Spock tells McCoy that's an invasion of privacy. McCoy goes to Jim's cabin and offers him a back rub. Jim agrees. McCoy rubs his back, and then handles Jim's penis. Jim is shocked, but when McCoy explains why, agrees to have sex.

Altocello

Altocello is a talented fan artist known for her beautifully detailed realistic work as well as her clever line art, incorporating both original ideas and intelligently chosen references. 
She has done significant work in the BBC Merlin fandom, with a penchant for the character Merlin (played by Colin Morgan), though she is ready, willing and able to work with characters less likely to feature in fan art, such as Gaius. 
She has also worked in other fandoms, including Outlander, The Magicians, Good Omens, and the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, with a particular focus on the Rey/Kylo Ren relationship and the actor Adam Driver (who plays Kylo Ren).
Altocello regularly takes part in fannish challenges and fests, such as the After Camlann Big Bang and the Merlin Celtic Animal Project for Merlin.
== Styles and Themes ==
Cello's signature styles include her 'playing card' illustrations, featuring line art and a close attention to symbolism. In some images, the same character is shown from the waist up and mirrored on a card - just as the king, queen and jack images are mirrored on regular playing cards. In other images, two different characters are 'mirrored', often illustrating a binary or symbiotic relationship such as Merlin and Arthur being two sides of the same coin, or Rey and Kylo Ren representing the Light and Dark sides of the Force.
The "Alban Cards" (see below) are an excellent example. Altocello describes them thus: 
Some of Cello's artwork quite properly requires (demands!) a quick application of talent and enthusiasm (e.g. "Adam Driver in an hour"). 
However, Cello often puts a great deal of thought into her artwork. For example, "Quiet Breathing" (see below), shows Arthur recovering from his mortal wounds in Avalon. Cello's end notes on AO3 mention artistic inspiration from Aubrey Beardsley's illustrations for an edition of "L'Morte d'Arthur", as well as literary inspiration from John Keats' "Endymion" and T.H. White's "The Once and Future King". The choice of imagery for the border also carries meaning: 
== Examples of Work ==
Image:Quiet breathing 72ppi.jpg|"Quiet Breathing": artwork featuring Arthur for an After Camlann Big Bang fic.
Image:The Alban cards.jpg|"Alban Cards": Arthur as the Oak King and Merlin the Holly King. Guinevere as the Goddess of Spring and Morgana the Goddess of Autumn.
