After the weirdness of getting RAF Magazine off the ground (so to speak), I’m now preparing to step back in time (for me, anyway) to edit Star Trek Magazine again.
I was the launch editor on this way back in 1995, Titan Magazine’s first regular magazine, so it feels weird going back to it. Currently working up ideas for 2005 in between playing catch up from the holiday.
Funny time for Trek, what with people saying it should be rested (unlikely to happen) and other really supporting the latest show, Enterprise.
Personally I’m looking forward to seeing what show runner Manny Coto does with what might be the series final fourth season, I was impressed with his previous show Odyssey 5.
