Kirk was hosting his second meeting of the senior staff that day. The strain was clearly visible in his face. He took a deep breath and let it out in a long sigh, eyes closed. "I hope you have good news for me, Mr. Scott." "Helm control is still locked out, sir. I have some of the lads working...

Kirk headed aft. People passed him in the hallway, and as Captain of the Enterprise he was used to people glancing at him rather than politely averting eyes. Still he could not shake the feeling that the looks he got were silent pleas for help from people who knew their life was in his hands...

Aramis smiled for the first time since they had awakened him. "More blue. Like turquoise. Yes, perfect. And the grass was taller, thicker, and a darker green." He was entranced by his ability to paint a living landscape just by talking to "Mister Computer" who lived in the "arch". "I wish I were...

Aramis stood in front of the large window in the Observation Lounge, peering down at the sad remnants of his once proud world. "I did not know you were gods too." "Not gods," Dr. Haupmann said. "And yet you walk among the stars like Celeste." "These days many people walk among the stars. I'm...

There was another chamber leading off from the main area, separated by nothing more substantial than a bead curtain. With her exuberance overcoming Starfleet protocol, Janet pushed the veil aside and stepped quickly into the room. "Oh my Lord!" Kirk came through behind her and looked upon the...

Beaming into a new environment is always apprehensive. Given the hostile conditions of the planet a few meters away, it was doubly so. The security guards checked the perimeter, the Captain checked the environment, and Doctor McCoy checked himself, reluctant enough at having his molecules sent...

Kirk looked grimly around the table at the faces of his senior staff. He loved surprises, but not those that added to the length or complexity of a mission. "Are you saying someone's down there?" "The force field was carefully masked," Spock said. "It is strong enough to screen out the solar...

[Captain's Log, Star Date 5032.4. The Enterprise is observing Gamma Lyrae, a star that is about to go nova. While we are here, Dr. Haupmann is conducting detailed sensor sweeps of Gamma Lyrae IV, a Class G planet that was once Class M. Its surface is marked with several large features which may...

Back when James Cawley was astonishing the internet with his professional quality fan films to carry forward the fourth season of Star Trek, I wrote this pitch for consideration. Unfortunately the window for submitting materials had passed, so this sat in a drawer for about 15 years. Here is...

I look forward to this. Long, long ago I actually wrote a Star Trek episode for one of James Cowley's excellent productions, but the window had closed on script submissions. I may publish it on TDL sometime if there is interest.

Ride forth, O Coppery One. We look forward to seeing new ink here. Which, I must say, is something I'm up to as well in my new Narnia story "Harrod's Bend".

Congrats on your return. We look forward to your writing.

So Ilya has more than one appendix? Messy business that, especially if they get inflamed.

Welcome back to thee, of Phox of Copper! ;-)

Coming soon as part of a revived and renewed NarniaFansCast, "Harrod's Bend, or Otterly Narnia". A gentle, reverent sitcom that follows the misadventures of otter Ripley Pond as he leaves Cair Paravel to take up residence in the backwater village of Harrod's Bend. You'll laugh--guaranteed--but...

Truth be told, Hollywood only ever made 25 movies total. Only 25. They have been subject to endless remakes with the title and main character names changed to match a variety of books. Look at the Universal Studios horror movies of the early 20th century. They take a man looking for ultimate...

Orange corgis as oompa-loompas, even down to the silly song advice.

I did have the honor of posting the first comment on your article. Well written and worth a read.

I AM COMPOSING THIS AS I GO AS AN EXERCISE IN WRITING UNDER PRESSURE. WHEN IT RAINS IN THE WOOD BETWEEN THE WORLDS There is a wood which is no world, yet is all worlds as sure as none And in that silent windless grove there runs a path, a pleasant path that winds its winsome way around the...

IN PASSING Karl stood silently outside Moshe's Tool and Die Company for a very long time. In the weathered and worn back streets of Haifa, his mind reeled with the ghosts of life changing moments. But where to go from there, down the shabby avenues of the shadowlands? Where is worth going, and...
