I have no shame. I actually said this to a newsagent today. In truth, it wasn't quite as tragic as it sounds, because a) they know me, and b) I'd specifically asked them to order me 30 copies of Issue 18 of The Official Stargate SG1 & Atlantis Magazine in a couple of months ago, when we found out this was the edition the short story Sonny Whitelaw and I wrote, K-T, would be published.

The plan is, you see, for me to sign them, and then, when I see Sonny next, she can sign them too. This way we won't have to duck and hide from the rabid Stargate collectors at Supanova in Melbourne and Brisbane next year, because we'll have something for them, as the books usually go by lunchtime on day 1:)

The story is told from Vala's POV (mostly) and is sort of a companion piece to Roswell. It's got nothing to do with the events of 1947, but, you know how it is. SG1 just can't leave that damn time-machine alone, so they decide go back in time so far they figure they can't do any harm. Famous last words!.

Those of you who are very clever. you will know the "K-T" event is the big meteor that zonked the dinosaurs. For everyone else who didn't know that, well, now you've learned something:)
