Charlotte C Hill is the pseudonym of a long-term slash fan who started out in Star Trek: TOS and traipsed through myriad fandoms including, for a minute, the MCU. By 1988 she found Starsky & Hutch and The Professionals, when she met Megan Kent, her fan pair of over 3 decades. Together Charlotte and Megan published Manacles Press, a fanzine press that published Concupiscence, McPikus Interruptus, Nudge Nudge, Wink Wink, and special collections and novels through the 1990s. As a way of classifying her story styles, she used various pseudonyms, including Maggie Hall, Sharon Idaho, Dawn Woods, Susan Smithson, and others.
In 1991 Charlotte and Megan started Escapade, a slash convention they ran for 34 years and which celebrated its 35th anniversary in 2025 under the steady, competent, and loving hands of the new convention chairs, Nevertheless and Glymr. Overjoyed to hand Escapade to this new--and awesome--team.
Once a prolific slash author, she contributed to Manacles' regular zines, and has written in The Old Guard, Almost Human, M7, The Professionals, Space: Above and Beyond, Wiseguy, Buckaroo Banzai, Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, Once a Thief, Blake's Seven, and Star Trek: TOS among other fandoms. In M7, her favorite obscure fandom, she owned the Drinking n' Fighting mailing list, co-moderated the Write 'em Cowboys writers' fic list, and was the co-archivist of the Drinking 'n Fighting archive.
She has contributed to Media Cannibals as a vidder.
She will leave this plane with unfinished works for Burn Notice Sam/Michael and a myriad of other fandoms.
