When MZB was editing the Darkover anthologies, she got a lot of stories on "Subject A: a Free Amazon meets a man she can trust" and "Subject B: Dyan Ardais meets a woman he can trust." After a few years of listening to MZB grumble, Lisa carried out her threat and wrote Subject AB: Dyan Ardais and the Free Amazon. This story was first published in the Darkover anthology RENUNCIATES OF DARKOVER, Mar 1991.
