When you read New Frontier after hearing the audiobooks by Joe Morton, did you really read Calhoun's voice that way? It was always so very odd to me the slow overly pronounced words and almost spit-dripping way he voiced Mac. I can't find an example of it on youtube but it was a wild listen.

What are a series of things that Trek authors do that kind of bug you? I have a list Dayton Ward: Afraid to let his own stories stand on his own and will spend pages and pages recapping old books or old episodes. "Pliable Truths" recapped all of Chain of Command over several paragraphs David...

The mission to Turkana IV? The planet controlled by rape gangs?

Me rocking back and forth all monring in my padded sell. "the Terran empire no longer exists in the 24th century," "the Terran empire no longer exists in the 24th century," "the Terran empire no longer exists in the 24th century," "the Terran empire no longer exists in the 24th century,"...

**update** Fired my second employee ever this week and she was happy and relived I was letting her go. She said she knew she was doing a bad job but was too afraid to quit. She thanked me for giving her a kick out the door.

Not seeing any publishing since 1999, does he have an online presence? wondered if he's publishing under a different name these days. Just re-read Final Fury and Balance of Power. Loved his wacky take on TNG and VGR. Fallen heroes was also a standout.

Just read "Last Best Hope" and the word fuck appears 19 times during the book. when i was a kid, star trek characters had outgrown crass language and were the best of humanity. Now the writers of on screen trek and lit trek are just trying to be "relatable". Stop It.

Recounting. I get the whole treat the Book like its the readers first trek book, however Star Trek books are so niche, it'd better serve the story to just go and put a glossary at the end "for more information, check out the last 25 years of trek literature" section. The best example of this I...

In typical Dayton Ward fashion, it reads like a student trying to get to the required word count for the teacher. Ward's trick to do that as usual is to find ways to summarize complete episodes of Trek related to the inner monologue/feelings of a person. So far we've gotten full synopses of...

How come no trek after 1991 picked up on the Klingon's love of Shakespeare ? Seemed like a perfect thing for Martok to be a fan of, and Worf could have rolled his eyes and hated it or something.

Ben Sisko and more appropriately, Avery Brooks is a bit a "eccentric". What author do you think captured him best? The weird back of the neck scratch, the low growl anger, the "Hammock time!" dad, he's a bit of a nut and i love him. I just want to find an author who captures him the best.

watched Chain of Command again- everyone raves about Picard and Madred but no one really talks about how great the stuff on Enterprise with Jellico is. It’s astounding how insubordinate and unprofessional the senior officers become (Except Data, who gets a shiny red uniform) I just fired a...

yeah the HR rep came away pretty shaken. she says she's never had a situation spiral out of control like that with that kind of person. She was going to head back to her boss with recommended new protocols for taking the person to an isolated location off the floor so something like that doesn't...

I got to write this down for posterity. Became a manager in my department almost 3 years ago. Last year another leader got demoted and her team disbanded and spread across several different leaders. one of the employee's I got had been issued a written warning and had issues with their...

Was Mirror Bashir also genetically enhanced? Or was he also unable to tell the difference between a dog and a house.

Re-watched Picard S3 again, what are some books that give this "Vibe"? So Far I've come up with The Fall series, and a little of bit of Destiny. Dug the Ro Laren "Imposters" episode the most and it gave me a James Swallow feeling ::-) What are come Trek books that fall along these type...

On this weeks episodes of Inglorious Treksperts Mark Altman confirmed Paramount is seeking bids at effects houses for the DS9 HD restoration.

Just read this again for the first time in a decade. Was so great. What are some novels that take place during any of the series that share such an epic story? This told a grand story in the middle of season 4 of DS9, kind of like the String Theory trilogy of Voyager or even Prime Directive for...

I just re-read Voyages of Imagination again, because I love the interviews with the authors and the background. Oh Boy were there a ton of authors who either had never watched Star Trek or had and didn't like it but were good writers so Pocket hired them. Then about the turn of the century we...

Just finished Fallen Heroes again, looking for a good odo story. GO!
