Orson Scott Card writes his own fanfiction

Every month once in a while, Orson Scott Card publishes a side-story from the Ender's Game universe and pads it with a bunch of content from other authors to form this thing known as the Intergalactic Medicine Show webzine. He charges $2.50 US an issue.

Sample: http://www.intergalacticmedicineshow.com/cgi-bin/mag.cgi?do=issue&vol=i3&article=_cheater

Oh, Battle School kids! How I have missed you. But do I miss you at the price of $2.50 a pop?

Admittedly, if I actually shelled out money I would probably read the other content as well. But the prime motivating factor would be the Ender stuff.

Yes, I like the earlier books better because the moralizing is more covert. Although I still religiously read the Shadow books if only to find out what happened to the Battle School characters. ^_^

Hey, that's an idea! Which one should I buy? I can send it to you by email after I get access. XD
