Why "The Synopticon"? Well, firstly because it's a catchy title! And secondly, this section will be an open forum for you to submit your brief story outlines and we'll add the best here. The format should be similar to those found on the reverse of the regular Book & Video releases, i.e. short and to the point without giving too much away .. just enough to whet your appetite so to speak. If you've written a larger story, or a full piece of fan fiction, then please do submit it, together with a blurb and we'll consider adding the full item as a downloadable file. So, if you have anything and would like it showcased on these pages, then please drop us an EMail and we'll add them in a future update.
