The Outlander cast and crew have had a busy start to their South African stay. After the Scottish cold, wet and grey days, they’ve had to adjust to bright, sunny and very hot days. Gin and tonics have helped keep them cool, along with sunglasses and SPF factor 50 sunscreen protection. So what exactly have…

Written by: Erika Schmale, Guest Contributor Attending a Comic Con is not something I thought I would EVER do.

Written by: Jayne Coleman and guest contributor Maralyn Goldsmith We have a saying in South Africa — ‘n Boer maak ‘n plan — i.e., a farmer makes a plan.

Editor’s note: This weekend, amidst the parchedness of #Droughtlander, we will be granted a tiny drop of relief. No, it’s not a trailer (note to Starz: come out with it already!).

I wake up some days and think, when will it end? Can I endure? When will it stop, the wanting you? It’s interminable. I don’t entirely understand this level of torture. I mean – are we not just all devoted fans looking for the good (mostly!) in this enterprise known as “Outlander?” All we want is…
