A part of me is so weary of the internal and external struggle that existence in this physical realm is. And yet… I could never stop being aContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 03232023.4”

As I began to work at my post today, I received a subspace transmission from Dr. McCoy’s office (the vet). I was confused because I wasn’t expecting a hail from sick bay.

As our ship completes another orbit around Earth, I find myself looking back on the year that has gone by. At the beginning of the year, I was just settling into my new position aboard Starbase 321 (work) as a counselor.

Troi: So you finally made it back for another appointment. It’s been awhile, how’s your relationship with William going? Me: It’s over. Troi: Already? Me: Yup.

During my journey through open space, I have encountered many alien species; some hostile and some friendly. On more than one occasion, I’ve considered bringing some aboard the USS Zamora to join the crew. Yet, only William has made the leap from Federation ally to potential crewman. William has been staying aboard the USS ZamoraContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 12052022.8”

Off the Record

It’s been a long time since I’ve last written. There’s so much that has happened that I feel like I’m going to forget to mention something.
