Happy birthday to Ronald D. Moore!
Ronald “Ron” Dowl Moore is a writer and producer of several Star Trek series and films, as well as several other science fiction and genre programs. Moore was recognized for his writing work on the Star Trek franchise with seven award nominations, winning two of them. In his post-Star Trek years, he greatly added to this list of laurels.
While residing in Los Angeles as a struggling and budding writer, Ron Moore started to date a woman who worked on the set of Star Trek: The Next Generation. In 1989, Moore, an avid fan of the original Star Trek, convinced her to take him on a tour of the lot. He had written a script for the show, which the producers liked enough to actually film. It became “The Bonding”, and Moore was soon hired as a staff writer.
He remained at that position until the end of the series. He co-wrote 27 episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation including the series finale, “All Good Things…” for which he won the Hugo Award for excellence in science fiction writing along with Brannon Braga. Moore and Braga also co-wrote two films featuring the Next Generation cast, Star Trek Generations and Star Trek: First Contact. As producer of TNG in 1994, Moore shared an Emmy Award nomination when the series was nominated as Outstanding Drama Series that year.

William Shatner doles out another ‘Kirk is the best captain ever’ tale with the Reeves-Stevens helping him out. I make it sound like I didn’t like the book, I did, but I hate how even now, Shatner, goes out of the way to make sure that Kirk is portrayed as the smartest, strongest, most attractive character in the Trek universe. Sometimes it gets to be a little much.

Happy 2024 Birthday to Marc Okrand!

Happy birthday to Marc Okrand!
Marc Okrand is the inventor of the Klingon language. He initially created the Vulcan dialogue in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. He was hired by Paramount Pictures to invent the language and coach the actors on Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. Okrand’s basis for the Klingon language came from the few samples spoken in Star Trek: The Motion Picture which were made up by James Doohan. He is also famous as the author of The Klingon Dictionary and all its addenda.
On Disc 2 of the Star Trek III: The Search for Spock DVD, Okrand said he was asked to create Klingonese for scenes that had already been shot in English. During post-production, he turned off the sound and observed the actors’ lip movements as they spoke their lines. From these movements, he developed new vocal “sounds” for the actors to dub over their original English. He was asked to do the same for Spock and Saavik in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, during their brief discussion about Kirk in the Torpedo Bay. Okrand was also interviewed on 21 August 1991 for the TNG Season 5 DVD special feature “Alien Speak” (“The Klingon Linguist”).
Okrand previously worked with Native American languages, from which he borrowed the unusual Klingon tlh [IPA: /t͡ɬ/] sound (common in North and Central American indigenous languages, in which it is usually transcribed as tl; this is the sound at the end of the word “Nahuatl” as the Aztecs pronounced it themselves).
Recent work includes the Atlantean language which he was hired to do for Disney’s film Atlantis: The Lost Empire, which featured the voice of Leonard Nimoy. He also contributed Klingon and Vulcan dialogue for several episodes of the fourth season of Star Trek: Enterprise. He was a consultant for the Klingon, Romulan and Vulcan languages on 2009’s Star Trek and served as an uncredited consultant on Star Trek Into Darkness.

Out today: “The Art of George Wilson“, by Anthony Taylor.
What made many of the great adventure comics of the 1960s so attractive were their fantastic painted covers by artist George Wilson. Wilson’s covers harkened back to the era of pulp magazines and were spectacularly eye-catching. He turned in efforts for literally hundreds of comics titles including: Classics Illustrated, The Twilight Zone, Ripley’s Believe It or Not, Dr. Solar, Magnus Robot Fighter, Turok, Son of Stone and Star Trek, to name but a few. This new art book focuses on over 300 examples of his cover art and features numerous examples of Wilson’s artwork scanned from the originals together with many of the book covers he created including his extensive run on Avon’s The Phantom.

Out Today: “Strange Novel Worlds”
Out today: “Strange Novel Worlds“.
Since the publication of the first James Blish novelizations of Star Trek episodes in 1967, close to 900 tie-in novels, anthologies, and omnibus editions have been published. Star Trek tie-in novels have had a significant influence on Western popular culture. The works of beloved science fiction authors have shaped the way fans understand Star Trek and its universe, and many stand as near equal builders of the Star Trek franchise, next to Gene Roddenberry, his producers, and the many creators of the later series. With such a vast and varied body of work, tie-in books form a rich and deep cultural phenomenon, the history and content of which are worthy of concerted study.
Despite the enduring popularity of the franchise they are based on, no previous essay collection has ever focused on the numerous and widely diverse books of Star Trek tie-in novels. This collection does just that by examining the tie-in works as relevant literature. The essays primarily focus on tie-in books published from 1990 to 2022, and each author discusses the plot and context of separate novels while simultaneously exploring major themes such as canon vs. fanfiction and merits of the genre. The collection ends with an exploration of the continuity of this period of Star Trek as it stands following a narrative conclusion announced in 2021.

Happy birthday to Jeri Taylor!
Jeri Cecile Taylor is a television writer and producer best known for her contributions to the Star Trek franchise. Born in Bloomington, Indiana, she received her Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Indiana University in 1959 , and her Master’s degree in English from California State University at Northridge. She is the mother of two time Star Trek: The Next Generation guest star and recurring Star Trek: Voyager actor Alexander Enberg.
Prior to joining Star Trek, Taylor was a producer, story editor, and occasional director on the hit medical series Quincy, M.E., on which Trek guest performers Robert Ito and Garry Walberg were regular cast members. She went on to serve as producer and writer for such series as Magnum, P.I., In the Heat of the Night, and Jake and the Fatman. She also directed episodes of the latter series. In addition, she co-wrote the 1987 CBS TV movie A Place to Call Home, for which she also served as supervising producer. She was also a producer of the short-lived TV adaptation of the film Blue Thunder, whose guest stars included Tracy Scoggins, Sam Anderson, Ray Wise, John Hancock, Robert DoQui and Kurtwood Smith.
She joined the staff of Star Trek: The Next Generation as supervising producer in 1990 and held that position through the show’s fifth season. She then served as co-executive producer for the show’s sixth season, and was then promoted to executive producer for its final season, and served as showrunner for the final year, as Michael Piller was primarily occupied with Star Trek: Deep Space Nine at the time. She also co-wrote three episodes of Deep Space Nine during the latter period. Additionally, she assisted in the production of the Trek films Star Trek Generations and Star Trek: First Contact, receiving special thanks notices in each of the film’s end credits for her contributions. Working in the business since 1976, Taylor was asked to join the staff after rewriting the episode “Suddenly Human”. (“Chronicles from the Final Frontier”, TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)

In Star Trek: Celebrations, IDW spotlights LGBTQIAP+ characters throughout the canon – Sulu, Raffi, Seven, Chapel, Stamets, Reno, and Mariner. (Interestingly, Culber, Adira, and Gray appear on the cover but not in the anthology. Culber and Stamets even have their own alternate cover but Stamets’s entry in the anthology is solely concerned with Reno. Fascinating.)

Shastrix.com has added a new review for Dayton Ward‘s “Star Trek: The Next Generation: Pliable Truths”:
It feels like Star Trek, which is I suppose one of the best compliments for it. There’s a ton going on, so bigger than one episode, with a lot of plot strands to pull on and none of them seeming to dominate. This might make the book feel unfocussed, and I did at first wonder what the main plot actually was, before realising that it didn’t need to have a main plot to successfully tell stories about these characters.

Reality has literally begun collapsing around Captain Sisko and the U.S.S. Theseus crew as they race through space and, one by one, witness the gods be annihilated by the new godkiller! The detonation of a god-scale bomb at the Pleroma started a chain reaction beginning the unraveling of time and space. But the Theseus crew are Starfleet officers ready to step up to the plate and boldly take on the unknown, and their captain is a prophet ready to embrace his godhood for the sake of the universe…or else!
Star Trek Library Collection, Vol. 3

First, two series set during the fourth year of the U.S.S. Enterprise’s five-year mission! In Star Trek: Year Four the Enterprise encounters a strange series of planets, arranged to look like a strand of DNA floating through space. The crew can’t help but explore once Spock realizes that the desolate structure once supported more than 800 billion beings in the past. By David Tischman, Leonard O’Grady, Steve Conley, Gordon Purcell, and Joe & Rob Sharp. In a sequel to “The Enterprise Incident,” The Enterprise Experiment details the Federation’s experiments with a Romulan cloaking device, by D.C. Fontana, Derek Chester, and Gordon Purcell.

Miles O’Brien and his trusty holo-helm set course for the planet Antara as Romulan forces prepare to besiege the population with Worf, B’Elanna, and Ro among them.

Meanwhile, on Romulus, Commander Sela and Spock uncover a dark secret that General Revo is willing to kill to keep secret…

Still reeling from the battle on Qo’noS, Worf and the Defiant crew have been ordered to return to Starfleet headquarters. Despite their heroic actions, the Federation can’t celebrate the crew’s involvement in the fight against Kahless and the Red Path. In fact, they’re forced to discharge Worf and his crew! With the unspoken, unwritten agreement that they’ll operate with full Starfleet authority… completely off the books. Disavowed from Starfleet, Worf and his crew set out in their new roles as secret bounty hunters for the Federation. Their targets: untouchable criminals protected by treaties and alliances. They’ll take on villains from across Star Trek’s history such as an individualized ex-member of the Borg Collective, a time-traveling con man from The Next Generation, and an alien gangster from Sigma Iotia II.

Out Today: “Journey to the Inner Light: The Life and Musical Voyage of Jay Chattaway, Star Trek, Jazz, and Film Composer”
Out today: “Journey to the Inner Light: The Life and Musical Voyage of Jay Chattaway, Star Trek, Jazz, and Film Composer“, by Terri Potts-Chattaway.
Journey to the Inner Light: The Life and Musical Voyage of Jay Chattaway, Star Trek, Jazz, and Film Composer is the story of the twentieth-century Emmy Award-winning American composer behind the scores of hundreds of beloved Star Trek television episodes. Jay rose from humble beginnings in southwestern Pennsylvania, where he grew up along the banks of the Monongahela River, simultaneously discovering his talent for music and his love of the open water. This passion for the aquatic-seen in his naval career and his adventures sailing the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans-blends seamlessly with his passion for composing original compositions and film scores.
In Journey to the Inner Light, the author celebrates Jay’s successes and, at the same time, reveals some of the challenges he faces as he moves through five decades of the music industry. She also opens a window into his private life for a three-dimensional portrait. Additionally, Journey to the Inner Light explores the creative process as Jay attempts to answer the question most asked of him: “Where does the music come from?”

Happy 2024 Birthday to Ben Robinson!

Happy birthday to Ben Robinson!
Ben Robinson is the English writer and editor of several Star Trek-related reference works and projects.
Robinson is the grandson of Bernard Robinson, most notably known as the production designer of most Hammer films made from 1957 until 1968. A 1991 University of York graduate holding a Masters degree in English and Related Literature, Robinson was an Original Series fan from an early age.
In 1996, Robinson’s first two years of working for GE Fabbri saw him serve as one of the initiators, editors, and writers of the comprehensive Star Trek Fact Files partwork magazine. He worked alongside Marcus Riley, Penny L. Juday, Larry Nemecek, Guy Vardaman, Tim Gaskill, and Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens on this project.
Following the tremendous success of the Fact Files which sold over 50 million units, he was reassigned to edit its US counterpart called Star Trek: The Magazine in 1998. A noted contribution that he made for the latter publication was the extensive interview he conducted with legendary Original Series Art Director Matt Jefferies which was published over five issues during the 2000-2002 run of the magazine. Later, Robinson followed this up with an interview featuring Andrew Probert, one of Jefferies’ successors. Over this period, he conducted interviews with many of the actors, designers, directors, writers, and effects artists involved with the franchise. Nicholas Meyer, Leonard Nimoy, and Robert Wise were among his favorite interviewees. Along the way, Robinson also compiled a massive archive of Trek materials outside of Paramount’s vaults.

“Star Trek: Sons of Star Trek #3” Review by Trekcentral.net
Trekcentral.net has added a new review for Morgan Hampton‘s “Star Trek: Sons of Star Trek #3”:
In the last issue, Jake, Alexander, and Nog had finally escaped Q Junior’s time loop, but that was just the beginning of their problems. This week, in Sons of Star Trek #3, their trials in this alternate universe continue. A last-minute mind-meld and a risky ship maneuver was enough to break the time loop, but not enough to break them out of this universe. Now there’s an army of cloaked Breen slowly phasing aboard, and the ship’s in a state of disrepair.

The Jackal’s Trick picks up the plot threads from Hell’s Heart, but shifts focus in terms of character somewhat. Whereas Hell’s Heart gave us a lot of the Enterprise crew as its main Starfleet characters, this one, especially in its earlier chapters, focuses more on the Titan crew.

RIP ICQ: Remembering a classic messaging app that was way ahead of its time
I had an account with them, 5542507 but it was registered before they required email addresses and somewhere along the line they broke something on my account and I found I wasn’t able to log in. It wasn’t as terrible as it could have been, because by that time everyone I talked with online had migrated to AIM. I remember the first few weeks of using ICQ and how amazing it was to have a live conversation with someone via text and the best part of it was that if someone was offline you could send them a message and they’d get it when they signed on.
I miss those days that you could sign off of an account easily.

Out Today: “The Most Human: Reconciling with My Father, Leonard Nimoy”
Out today: “The Most Human: Reconciling with My Father, Leonard Nimoy“, by Adam Nimoy.
Even before Star Trek I’d see him popping up in bit roles on some of my favorite TV shows like Get Smart, Sea Hunt, and The Man From U.N.C.L.E. And then one night he brought home Polaroids of himself in makeup and wardrobe for a pilot he was working on. It was December 1964 and nobody had heard of Star Trek. Still, the eight-year-old me had watched enough Outer Limits and My Favorite Martian to understand exactly what I was looking at.
Spock’s popularity happened quickly, and soon the fan magazines were writing about dad’s personal life, characterizing us as a “close family.” But the awkwardness that defined our early relationship blossomed into conflict, sometimes smoldering, sometimes open and intense. There were occasional flashes of warmth between the arguments and hurt feelings—even something akin to love—especially when we were celebrating my father’s many successes. The rest of the time, things between us were often strained.
My resentment towards my father kept building through the years. I wasn’t blameless, I know that now, but my bitterness blinded me to any thought of my own contribution to the problem.
I wanted things to be different for my children. I wanted to be the father I never had, so I coached Maddy’s soccer, drove Jonah to music lessons, helped them with their homework—all the things dads are supposed to do. All the things I wanted to do. So what if my Dad and I had been estranged for years? I was living one day at a time.
And then I got his letter.
That marked a turning point in our lives, a moment that cleared the way for a new relationship between us.
