That’s 800 installments of Star Trek. That’s pretty damned impressive.
I grew up with Star Trek, on my television screen, on my bookshelf, in my comic book longboxes, and in movie theatres. Since 1999, when WildStorm published my Star Trek: The Next Generation comic book Perchance to Dream, Trek has also been a part of my professional life in some form or other, from writing prose fiction and reference works for Simon & Schuster and comics for WildStorm and IDW and role-playing games for Modiphius to writing about the show for magazines (Star Trek Magazine, Entertainment Weekly), essay collections, and web sites. Most recently, I’ve been contributing to the Star Trek Adventures game world, and I’ve been writing about Trek for Tor.com since 2011, including rewatches of the past shows and reviews of the new shows as they’re released.
I’m deeply honored to have been a part of it, however small, and I look forward to the next 800 installments………..
