So, there seems to have been a trend in the 80's, 90s and early 2000's of Trek cast members trying their hand at writing their own scifi (or other things), probably inspired by William Shatner's success. I've compiled a list of what I could find, so here I present them. It does not include autobiographical works because that's covered in another thread.

I read Armmin Shimmerman's Doctor Dee novel I got from the library that takes place in Elizabethan England it was a really good fantasy story. I really enjoyed reading it.I also read William Shatner's Techwar series from the library.
