In Their Own Words

29 August 2001

This is the section where some of our favorite authors will share with us (and you) their favorite stories from among their own work. The lovely and talented Pix mentioned this idea to me in an e-mail, saying how she thought it might be an interesting contrast with the typical recommendations lists so prevalent on fan fic websites.

I, of course, immediately wondered the same thing, and so, here we are. This will be a weekly feature, with past Authors' Picks being archived on a page called "From the Desk of..."

So, let us begin...

This week we have the always-chivalrous M. Scott Eiland, who is known the Buffyverse over for his alternate universes, his crossovers, and his B/X stories. Click on the name of the story within the text below if you'd like to read it.

Scott says...

It's a tough choice, but "Trial" is my favorite story among those I have written. "Trial," which follows up one of the mini-scenarios from my story "Short Cuts" by having Faith face the judgment of the Council of Watchers, has action, heroism by many of the characters (particularly Willow and Xander), deeply expressed emotion, and the utter defeat of one of my least favorite characters in the Buffyverse. . .quite a package, and a fun read.

So there you have it — Scott, in his own words...
