I should have RTFM'ed. The well known way to do this is to redefine pagestyle
plain to include the desired headers/footers. Here's an example that does
that:
% ### Change plain style headers to approximate fancy headers
\fancypagestyle{plain}{%
\fancyhf{} % clear all header and footer fields
\fancyfoot[C]{~\\[0.2in] -- \thepage --}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0.5pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}}
]{\markboth{\footnotesize\textsc{\textbf{\slshape\chaptername{} \thechapter:
#1}}}{}}
\fancyhead[L]]{\leftmark}
I've also read about \pagestyle{fancyplain}, which supposedly is a much easier
way to do this.
