 JPH> Abī>out ten years ago, at a Con in Los Angeles I saw a table
 JPH> heaped with Fanzines.  Apparently Diane Carey wrote more adventures of
 JPH> Piper and her crew, but Pocket books told her to desist and write only
 JPH> about the "Main" Trek characters.
        (sigh!) When will the powers to be stop worrying about sticking
to old plots and realize there are other characters besides the "Big
Three?" (Heretic!)  I can think of a least two of the series that were
so badly written I had to read them to see if they were serious.  (A
whole ton of "Mr Spocks first name is unpronouncable to Humans", and
one scene where Kirk orders Sulu to give the Enterprise "Full Right
Rudder!"  (Never saw a rudder on a Starship before)
 JPH> Evidently, Ms. Carey went ahead and self published her other
 JPH> works as fan-fiction.
        Good girl!
