Not much to say this time around except -- Happy Holidays!

The editor wishes to thank the authors (Kathryn Ramage, kira-nerys, Olivia Montieth, Mark Russell Stanley, Heather Cook, Anne Fairchild, the Fredster and Fenris) for their contributions to the Cardassia Sutra Archive, and to this 'Zine.  Without their wonderful prose, Sophie would have had no inspiration for the lovely illustrations that comprise over half of this effort.  Also, a big thanks to Isabel Tan, whose drawing was the inspiration for "Red Satin Ribbons".  On behalf of all the contributors, I would also like to thank Andy Robinson and Alexander Siddig for their portrayals of Garak and Bashir - without the sexual tension, innuendo, friendship and lunches, we'd have nothing to write about!
