Another long interval between posts, and I find myself almost world-weary. A more-than-full-time schedule at school, unrequited love and my own personal demons have left me exhausted, stressed, worn out. Amidst it all, I have little time to write, or little time that I decide to spend writing. I wonder if that is part of my recent instability. Regardless, I am here now, and even though I am not writing fiction, my sentiments make it to the page.

Are Star Trek fans insane, or are they just so hungry for more that all sense of, you know, standards in storytelling has left them?

I'm not referring so much to the upcoming Star Trek movie, helmed by the unworthy J.J. Abrams, but the series of comics released to bridge the events of the new film with the previous continuity. I have just finished reading the first in the series of comics, and I must say, though the thrust of the story is interesting, the execution leaves much to be desired.
