Hello, my friends.
First, thanks to all who read the book and came here to share their thoughts. It is always a treat to hear from those who I think of as the most hard core of Trek fans. Whether this one worked for you or not, I appreciate you taking the time.
It may seem strange to see me...
Good evening friends,
First, thank you all so much for the enthusiasm and the many kind words. You guys are and always will be the best.
I'm not going to tease you about the new series. There's nothing I am able to tell you apart from the fact that, as you might imagine, I am having the time...
Hi Misco,
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on this. I really appreciate you taking the time and am so very pleased that you enjoyed this story. And I never mind questions. I am sad I can't always get back here in a timely fashion to answer them, but I always try.
So as to your...
For me, the notion of reducing his rank would never have really worked for me. I get why they did it in the films. Everyone wanted to see Kirk back in that chair and it was sort of done with a wink and a nod to satisfy long-time fans. But realistically...I don't know. It's not how things usually...
There's always pressure. And all I can do is ignore it and keep writing. Here's hoping the next one works out as well as this one did. Or even half as well. I'm really flabbergasted at this point with how much people are enjoying this one.
Flabbergasted and so very grateful for all of the kind...
Hi Roy,
Thanks, as always, for your thoughtful and heartfelt words. I'm so glad you came by to share them. First, because you always make me see my words a little differently, in a great way. And second, because I was worried about you. I hadn't seen you around in a while and sincerely hoped...
I have read and do use Star Charts when I need to. Sometimes it is more applicable than others, and I have to remind myself always to think in 3 dimensions rather than the 2 presented on those pages.

This is one of those cases where I wasn't able to make what I had in mind work with a Myriad Universe story. I realize that Q can experience any of the various threads in the multi-verse, so the timeline created in "Places of Exile" could have been included there. But I also needed the Denzit's...
Batiste and Montgomery would have been peers, probably both on the same level. Batiste chose to lead the fleet...he wasn't ordered to by Montgomery. Their early conversations about the choice to return to the DQ in Full Circle were more a matter of professional courtesy than Batiste answering...
Hi Stormy,
Here's hoping that by the time you finished the book you understood the early strangeness of Nancy' story. It was definitely intentional. And as for Tuvok seeming out of character early one...I really was taking this from the end of Tuvok's arc in the Destiny trilogy...specifically...
Good evening everybody,
As usual, I have stayed away too long. There are so many comments here I wish to respond to directly, but the thought of a massive quote and reply post at this point feels impossible. I think what I'm going to do, begging the readers and the moderator's patience, is to...
Good evening all,
Usually I spend the first few days after a book comes out waiting for folks to have a chance to read it and begin to share their thoughts. I guess the fact that this one was in stores early in some places means we're past that point now. Thanks, as always, to all who are...
