Thanks for the update, and more thanks for moving the page and keeping it alive!
It's encouraging to see that you're even considering another edition of Karlenzine. As has been discussed a few times over here, zines are greatly missed, and I'm not optimistic on us ever seeing another WODS (and this from someone who has a novellette and a short story accepted and waiting for future publication for about three years now).
Best of luck with the pro novel.
Don't know how widely it's known in DS fandom (since DS seems to no longer have many ties in common with the rest of media fandom), but many many fanzine writers have gone pro over time. Folks like Peter David, Jackie Lichtenberg, Diane Duane, Susan Garrett, Roberta Rogow, Susan Matthews and Misty (Mercedes) Lackey.
ALL started out writing for zines -- and some continued writing for them for FUN after they broke out as pro writers.
That's not even mentioning non fiction writing credits by folks such as the late (and dearly missed by all who knew her) Joanie Winston.
