Well certainly the news about a potential fourth Star Trek movies isn’t good. But perhaps someday. My own positive spin on it is that it means I can safely have Spock and Uhura broken up for good in any future offerings I may have. Hey, I take what I can get!
Speaking of, I updated The Sight today. I know…shocking. I actually had the start of chapter 7 written way back when I posted my AN about deleting it. I got a few more requests in recent days to continue it, so I picked it up again and finished it. The chapter not the fic! Ha.
In other news, of the writing kind, I got a Flash Fic done for this Friday yesterday. It’s not at all related to the boys from the Christmas Flash, but I think it is, dare I say, sweet.
I have begun the fic related to First Footing as well. The part you read on here will be the first chapter, aptly titled, First Footing. I don’t have a name for the overall fic yet, nor a plan as to when I’d start posting it. Not a for a while I think. Maybe not until it’s finished. We shall see. back in the very early days of 2013 and The Bond Between Them, I finished the whole darn thing before I posted it. Weird days that.

I’m guessing it’s easier to finish one, when you don’t have others in the queue, waiting for further plot lines and updating. Your brain amazes me that you can keep it all straight. Definitely a part of your brain is very strong where mine is weak. When new updates come out, I always have to go back and read the chapter before to remind myself what was happening. You definitely have a gift. You know that Monk “it’s a blessing and a curse” thing? Yours is the blessing. Mine is the curse.
I will never give up until all avenues are securely dynamited and caved in. As Will Smith said in ID4, “I ain’t heard no fat lady sing yet!”
Yeah, you used to could say things like that. It amazes me how many lines they have to bleep as not acceptable to be said today, every morning when I watch Touched By An Angel.
Dam rabbits. I can barely hobble, but I can dam sure chase rabbits.
ANYWAY. I won’t give up on ST 4. Directors are everywhere. As we discussed, the actors themselves often direct (Shat and Nimoy.) Let’s give Simon a shot at it! We don’t need no other director.
(Star Wars changed directors TWICE during filming the last movie. It’s really not at all unusual for the director to be changed.)
There’s still plenty of ⏲️. Crossing my fingers and toes and eyeballs.

Yeah the director thing doesn’t bother me so much as several of the articles claiming it has been shelved indefinitely. You are right directors change. Originally Orci was supposed to direct Beyond. Maybe JJ will come back. God FORBID. Or maybe they will speed up Taratino’s idea and he will. But the “shelved indefinitely” gives me pause. So we shall see, I guess.
When I wrote The Bond Between Them I foolishly thought it was One and Done. I really did. Because nobody spends their lives writing fanfiction. Except I do, clearly, as my account at AO3 clearly indicates.

I agree with your sentiments on ST4. Sad, but maybe someday and yes, we can safely have Spock and Uhura broken up for good ^-^ as it should be
I’m in awe of your updating abilities. You are awesome and I wish I could turn out the amount of updates you do ❤
Hope you are having a good week so far!

Your ability to produce so many quality stories, while writing several as WIP, never ceases to awe me! Thank you for sharing it with us!
I saw you had updated The Sight, but I foolishly decided that not only was I going to reread the last few chapters, as I typically do, but reread the entire story. My entire day, today, has conspired against me in so many ways… so I made little headway. Then when I had some time to look at my phone, I spent it on Facebook ranting about and reading about tRump and his “infomercial” (aka Oval Office prime time address) about wanting the wall! Sigh!
