When/how did Cavelos work on 'The Shadow Arc'? I take it this means the
Shadow War (Seasons Three and Four), but as I understand it Cavelos was
only brought on in Season Five as a story editor (as well as editing the
B5 numbered novels and writing 7 herself), then she went on to Crusade.

wait, do you refer to her writing "The Shadow Within" (B5 Book 7)?

Where did you get THAT information? She was never a story editor on the
series, she was the editor for the Dell books far earlier than S5. And the one
she wrote (noted above) dealt with Z'ha'dum and shadow technology and other
advanced tech stuff, and so that made her right for the technomages.

I know I read it somewhere, I think it was in a Cavelos interview. She's not
fluffing up her resume is she?

Are you by chance confusing her with Fiona Avery?

Cavelos never worked on the show, in seasons 3, 4, 5, Crusade, or otherwise.
And he is referring to the novel, "The Shadow Within."

I think you're just mixing up Jeanne Cavelos and Fiona Avery. Jeanne
Cavelos never worked for Babylonian Productions at all.

you're right i was thinking of Fiona Avery, the Crusade person. but Cavelos IS the one
writing the Technomage novels, right?

Sounds like you're thinking of Fiona Avery, not Jeanne Cavelos.
