    Star Trek writers of decades past - where have they gone?

    Actually, I never talked to Paramount/CBS directly. This was between Voyageur Books and them. I'd still love to write more Trek fiction but the current team at Pocket doesn't seem interested and two projects at IDW went nowhere.

    Shore Leave

    I find I am double booked three times throughout the weekend and I await the con to tell me where I really should be. It's messier than usual which is a shame for the 35th anniversary. In addition to the above, I will be the center square for Friday night's Hollywood Squares and serving as...

    Shore Leave

    Sadly, Constellation closed a few months back but the con organizers assure me the replacement retailer has all the ISBNs for the authors' current works and should arrive well stocked. Just about every author comes with books of their own to sell in addition to related items (for example, Peter...

    Kelly Biography

    Terry Rioux's bio is thorough, researched with De's cooperation and reads just fine. Well worth a look.

    Own Star Trek four color film

    Fans of the comic book incarnation of Star Trek may be interested in a Kickstarter campaign that just launched. Ray Pelosi, the man who digitized the comics onto CD, has acquired four-color film from some of the Star Trek comics and is in the process of selling them with artist Terry Pallot...

    Star Trek: The Complete Unofficial History Update

    Some honest assessments here, and all appreciated. To be honest, TOS remains the engine that has driven the franchise for all these years and deserves the most pages. I will admit I had far more written about the other franchises but had to trim for space reasons.

    Star Trek: The Complete Unofficial History Update

    Thanks, Daddy! It was a labor of love among the writers, editor, and visual contributors. I look forward to comments from the rest of the board.

    OT ReDeus: Divine Tales

    Hi All, Since this has many Trek connections, I wanted to mention that at Shore Leave, we released ReDeus: Divine Tales, an original anthology set in a brand new shared universe. There are eleven stories here from me, Aaron Rosenberg, Dayton Ward, Scott Pearson, William Leisner, Paul...

    Star Trek: The Complete Unofficial History Update

    Hi all, I appreciate the interest and support. Just to update you: the book has an October 15 on sale date which means it should be finding its way into bookstores up to two weeks earlier in some regions. Those ordering it online should have it no later than the on sale date. The timing is...

    Star Trek: The Complete Unofficial History Update

    Just wanted to let everyone know that my book,Star Trek: The Complete Unauthorized History: To Boldly Go Where No Fan Has Gone Before, is now available for pre-order at Amazon and fine booksellers everywhere. In addition to lots of words from me, it contains scads of sidebars from the likes of...

    Author turnover: Why did they leave, and where are they now?

    Would you settle for me, Peter, and Mike working together on something non-Trek related? If so, stay tuned for some news in a few months.

    The Unofficial History of Star Trek

    A few weeks back, I asked the membership about pictures and memorabilia for a project. Unfortunately, that came up empty which is a shame but now I can offer details. The full story is over at my blog, but the short story is that in October 2012, Voyageur Books will be releasing The Unofficial...

    Seeking some Help

    I am beginning work on a project, the exact details of which will be revealed at a later date. What I am looking for are high-resolution images from conventions, Star Trek exhibits at museums, stage shows, fan productions, fanzines, unique memorabilia, fan art, etc. This can go from Star Trek...

    O.T. Ames vs. Riverside

    Well, this is embarrassing. If Ames first appeared in the comics I edited, then I should be flogged. Figures I never went and checked the WHO'S WHO there...

    O.T. Ames vs. Riverside

    Peter David figured I'd know where Ames Iowa was first mentioned as James T. Kirk's birthplace before Riverside absconded with the claim. I thought i did but after checking the Making of Star Trek, Star Trek Concordance, The World of Star Trek, The Star Trek Compendium, The Star Trek II...

    Gene Roddenberry: The Myth and the Man Behind Star Trek

    Joel's book represented the Gene Roddenberry I knew on and off since the early 1970s and later had to sort of work with as DC's Trek editor (the real communication handled through Richard Arnold). David Alexander's book may have tons of archival notes, memos and correspondence but whitewashed...

    Star Trek/Legion of Super-Heroes coming!

    Frankly, I, not John Ordover, should be editing this dream project. Heck, I'd kill to write it. Clearly, Allyn and I knew what would be commercial and fun years ago. The Legion, introduced as a one-off in 1958, struck such a chord with readers that they made repeated appearances before being...

    O.T. Crazy 8 Press

    Thanks, Terpette. Looking forward to seeing you, too. As for the rest of you, clearly, The Camelot Papers is now available as a nook or Kindle download so if you like Peter's stuff, I strongly recommend you try it out.

    Shore Leave 2011

    To the best of my knowledge Pocket has not made arrangements for any schedule announcements or early books for sale. The local bookdealer and his cute staff will be on hand and have been provided with lists of the authors' in-print titles so he can order accordingly. He's usually well-stocked...

    O.T. Crazy 8 Press

    Hi All, Since all six of the partners in Crazy 8 Press -- me, Peter David, Mike Friedman, Aaron Rosenberg, Howie Weinstein, and Glenn Hauman -- are Trek writers, I wanted to take a moment and make sure you're all aware of this new endeavor. Born out of a conversation near the Men's Room at...
