Ancient's Gate Zines
What's a 'zine' you ask? A zine is a compilred
'book' of stories formatted for readability and with added art.
Ancient's Gate provides zines in three formats: print, download,
and on CD (for those on dial-up or who otherwise can't download).
The only restriction on download and CD zines is that, if you wish
to share them, no copy is made of the zine you purchase (think
of them exactly as print ones, if you wouldn't copy those, then
don't copy the e-zines). Do not, however, share the download link
you are given as that would constitute new copies. This has been
an issue at times an jeopardizes the service for all concerned.
The affordability of the e-zines, especially for those in other
countries enables many to enjoy them who otherwise may not be able
to (international shipping is extremely expensive). Also, if you
purchase print zines, keep in mind that Ancient's Gate Productions
prints on demand, which means we do not print ahead of time, but
only as zines are ordeed so it can take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks
to receive your zines. We apologize for this delay, but it helps
us keep things affordable for all.

zines category
Gen Zines - These stories are, as a rule, full
sized stories, novellas, and vignettes exploring the characters
in a way equivalent (though usually in more depth) than the episodes.
AG does not accept or publish Sam-Jack ship stories. Occasionally
we will publish more canonical relationships (Daniel/Sha're, Jack/Sara)
but those will be clearly marked when they occur.
Slash Zines - Slash, for those who aren't aware,
is an exploration of m/m relationship between Jack and Daniel (or
any male characters, but AG tends to prefer J/D. These stories
can range from mild PG to NC17 and R. It is implied and expected
that adults only are the target audience for the higher rated ones.
Little Daniel Zines- Little Daniel is a genre of
writing in which Daniel is or becomes a child. These stories explore
how Daniel as well as the rest of SG1 deal with the situation.
Showcase Zines - the Showcase zines are volumes
of stories available on the web (or which have been in the past).
These zines are an effort to preserve some of the best of fandom.
Life happens to us all and some stories/authors are already disappearing.
All zines are, needless to say, done with the authors' permission.
Miscellaneous/Other

can be found here. Fancy a Sentinel/SG1 Cookbook by Alyjude?

And
don't forget to offer feedback. Zine writing is prety thankless
sometimes and it helps to let them know you're reading and enjoying
what they do.
