Humour

These are mainly for laughs and are in a slightly different (and lighter) universe to my other fiction in that Vila's mother is still alive. Dedicated to my mother, whose greatest fear while I was overseas was, like Jandy Restal's, that I was 'dead at the bottom of a cliff'.  Added 11-Jan-02.

Lynx
Lynx
is the PGP saga I've had in my head and been writing for about five years, always pushing it to the background to work on other stories with deadlines. I've finally finished the first two parts, which end at a satisfying place. Future parts will continue the story and also make a self-contained whole until I add more.
New Lynx Part 1 - Rescues
New Lynx Part 2 - Recovery

Crossovers

Exercises in illogic and fantasy: when the Blake's 7 universe meets another. Some of these were originally posted to  LiveJournal, but I decided to collect them here.

Wizardry  B7/Harry Potter: in which advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.  Added 28-Dec-06.
Pleasure  B7/Red Dwarf: a missing scene from Shadow.  Added 28-Dec-06.
Escape Committee  B7/Colditz/The Great Escape: Vila on CF1 as a teenager.  Added 28-Dec-06.
The Diary of a No-Body  B7/The Diary of a Nobody: Zen's diary in the style of the Victorian original.  Added 28-Dec-06.
Vila of the Dead  B7/Shaun of the Dead: Vila and Avon in the past. With zombies.  Added 28-Dec-06.
In the Nick of Time  B7/Doctor Who: Vila meets the Fourth Doctor on Gauda Prime.  Added 28-Dec-06.
The Lion, the Thief, and Avon  B7/Narnia: Vila finds somewhere he prefers to Xenon.  Added 31-Dec-06.
New Save the Bounty Hunter, Save the Galaxy  B7/Heroes: Hiro Nakamura reads a comic about a group of rebels in the future and decides to change the ending. I even did an illustration for this one.  Added 27-Nov-07.
New Time Warp  B7/Star Trek: The New Generation: a spatial anomaly throws the Enterprise 700 years into the future where it encounters the Liberator.  Added 27-Nov-07.
New Rebels and Amagons  B7/Swallow and Amazons: more a pastiche than a crossover, this is Blake's 7 in the style of Swallows and Amazons by Arthur Ransome (a classic 1930s British children's novel) though none of the B7 characters are children, I'm sure you'll be relieved to know. After the shootout on Gauda Prime, Vila, Avon, Dayna, and Tarrant end up on the shores of a lake...  Added 2-Jan-08.
