Safely home from vacation. Delta has Paramount on the in-flight system, and of course I watched the first two #StrangeNewWorlds episodes again. #LLAP #youknowme

A functioning Star Trek style replicator. And from my home, I would slowly make the world a better place.

I hope everybody’s New Year is going well so far! For my new followers, especially the Star Trek fans, here’s a little something to get to know me better. Lovely to chat with @ineti.bsky.social and Michael Dismuke about working on Star Trek in print.

MN family opted for “crispy” as holiday food theme. I made spam poutine with crispy tater tots and Wisconsin cheese curds. Came out great. I generally don’t do food pics but this came out good. First time I made white gravy too.

One of my goals for the holidays was to compile my random fiction writing notes into one notebook. I was successful but now I have a long list of series and books to write. I guess I should just pick one and go! #writingsky #writingcommunity

I did two and stopped. Didn’t want to jinx it. Happy new year, y’all.

Last #StarTrekAdventures blog of the year is up, celebrating at the stuff we worked in and released this year. 🥳 #LLAP modiphius.net/en-us/blogs/... 2025 Year In Review – Modiphius Entertainment

For my writer friends, advice I got along the way: Dare to be bad (Dean Wesley Smith) Write suckitudinously (Holly Lisle) Just write it. You can’t edit what doesn’t exist. Have fun.

Ah yes, that time of year for Tradpub to send my hundred page royalty statement reminding me the #StarTrek anthologies my stories were in will never earn out. 😂😭#writinglife

Yes, this forever!

The latest brouhaha in writing circles about AI makes me wonder how many traditional publishing houses are using it now.

It’s wild to wake up and see 50+ new followers. Like, what did I say or do that made that happen? Maybe the Loreena McKennitt post? More Trek? Whatever, welcome, y’all. Hope your Sunday is going well or will go well. #LLAP

post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains. Here are three of my favorites:

After you’re done with family and food on the 25th, grab your favorite beverage and some quiet space and join me and @strangenewpod.com as we chat #StarTrek, theatre, and more! #LLAP

It’s a big one! The 200th episode of #ContinuingConversations with my cohost Michael Dismuke and our special guest, John Freeman! #LLAP youtu.be/ukdG3Af4D8w?...

Lunchtime #StarTrek today was #TNG season 2 opener "The Child." Yeah, skipping the really cringy parts, the B plot about transporting scientific samples was well done. I can see that easily fitting into a #StarTrekAdventures mission or episode, giving several PCs interesting things to do.

Just finished a rewatch of #TNG season 1, and I'm appreciating again how consistent parts of the season were, and how much better it got as the season went on. The actors were more comfortable with their characters and each other, the writing was improving, and the thing was starting to gel.

Lunchtime Trek was #TNG season 1 finale "The Neutral Zone." Real A plot B plot going on here with some crossover. Lots of stuff to think about from a #StarTrekAdventures perspective for a crew. Like, what are some of the standing orders Starfleet or a captain might put into place? Thread time.

Found elsewhere on socials. Too good not to share. #LLAP

Lunchtime Trek was TNG “Conspiracy.” Some interesting stuff in here that can be pulled into the #StarTrekAdventures game I’ll have to unpack at some point. But wow, poor Remmick. #LLAP

Nice

Saying goodbye to your involvement in a series 16 episodes/1.5 seasons/1-2 years before the rest of the series even airs is like holding your graduation ceremony in your junior year. Please stahp. #LLAP

Today’s lunchtime viewing is “We’ll Always have Paris,” an interesting TNG episode with Picard encountering an old flame and one of many crazy old white male scientists. #LLAP

19/20 here; I didn’t have an AOL email. And it’s properly “mix tape,” not “mixed tape.”

Post your favorite Star Trek character, wrong answers only.

There was a dollar cinema in between my college and place of work, and for about three months, my schedule worked out that I had several hours in between classes and work, so I would go to the cinema and watch Braveheart for a dollar. So I went and saw it 26 times. #FREEDOM

One more for today, this one for the active #StarTrekAdventures crowd and potential crowd: looking at the classic episode “The Galileo 7,” what gameable ideas to pull from it, and how it might work at the game table. #LLAP youtu.be/Uk2Fs63ViMc?...

For the writers, editors, publishers: editing, proofreading, and related services. Lots of terms, sometimes used interchangeably. I don’t know that I make sense of it all, but I offer some insights. What do you expect from editors and proofreaders? #writersky youtu.be/4QZpFOa9_P0?...

Soundtracks suggest there should be touchtracks, tastetracks, and smelltracks.

Today’s lunchtime watch was #TheNextGeneration’s “Symbiosis.” Great episode with some nice bits for Crusher and Picard. Prime Directive edge of blade dancing.

So weird to see this. They're wrapping up and saying goodbye to the series and we've yet to even see season 4. We have, like, 2 more years to go before we can say goodbye SNW! It's like we're getting set up to be depressed for a while yet.

If you were elected to public office (never mind whether you'd ever actually run), what book would you swear in on?
