Welcome to Litsy!

I don't know why the database lists this book as being written by that Goodman guy. It was written by Una McCormick, an excellent writter, a even better academic and an all around delight. Restarted it three years after first trying it. Covid ate my brain.

“It has long been my custom, before embarking upon a great voyage, to set my affairs in order.“

Started this on the train. Una is a wonderful author (and a very nice person) who always perfectly nails character voices, and she delivers here. Very much enjoying it. Also, I know for a fact that this Goodman guy did virtually nothing on this book. Yet, he gets credit. Grrr.

You know this had to happen.

My favourite characters are generally these two. Spock just a little more than Scotty, but I do love a good Scot, so he‘s a really close second.

This is not Leonard Nimoy disavowing Spock. It is just a catchy title of a memoir of how he became the character and how he had to occasionally separate himself from it and not look at the rest of mankind as “humans“ 😂
He highlights his tendency to get bored with the characters that he plays - this is the reason why he was happy that the Star Trek TV show ended after the 3rd year and why he left the Mission Impossible series after 2 years on it.

1️⃣ Guardian, by Priest. It's Chinese and not in the database. (The series is pretty good so far too)
2️⃣ Science fiction.
3️⃣ The many Star Trek Fotonovels back in February. I've only started reading for fun again in the last couple weeks.

1️⃣ I speak French and English. I can read Italian, Spanish, German and Dutch/Flemmish. Don't ask me to speak those, though.
2️⃣ I don't have one? That's the closest.
3️⃣ 2?

The work on the Star Trek Fotonovels is coming along, though slowly, because life and students. But I've decided to take most of my examples from Metamorphosis and All Our Yesterdays, mostly because I can show how each example together demonstrate how the episodes were adapted. I wish I were here reading your posts, though.
