----------------------------Original message---------------------------- FYI: the following came to the surface while I was cleaning my files. cal ----------------------------Original message---------------------------- TREKWRTR Host Change: new listserv address [log in to unmask] new list address [log in to unmask] trekwrtr on [log in to unmask] TREKWRTR, the Star Trek Script Writer's Discussion List, formerly on PCCVM.BITNET, had been removed from BITNET. It IS still active and is accessible through Internet. TREKWRTR is a public unmoderated mailing list designed to provide a stomping grounds for those interested in submitting DEEP SPACE NINE and eventually VOYAGER scripts to Paramount. Star Trek is the ONLY popular television show that accepts fan submitted scripts "on spec". While during the seven seasons of Star Trek : The Next Generation only three scripts were accepted "as is", many stories were accepted and writers invited to "pitch" sessions. If you have a good story, YOU can make a REAL contribution to the Star Trek legend. All topics of interest to Trek Script Writing (format, craft, moral support, pitch stories, information from Trek writing cons, series discussions from writing POV, etc.) are welcome. You should NOT post your scripts or story ideas to the list. This list is not intended as a workshop and it is not advisable to post your work anywhere until it has been registered with the WGA. You may (if you wish) post portions of your script for critique, if your script is registered or if the portion doesn't reveal anything crucial from your script. Full (registered) scripts would probably be best sent to USENET's alt.startrek.creative with an announcement to the list. Ideally, if someone wishes to workshop scripts with others before submitting, he or she can use the list to cultivate friendships in order to form private e-mail workshops. This also is not the place to post or discuss fan fiction or novel writing. Both are better served by the USENET alt.startrek.creative. (Pocket Books does not accept unagented submissions) To join the list, send to [log in to unmask] and in the BODY of the message put the command SUBSCRIBE TREKWRTR A confirmation notice will be mailed to you later. Please FORWARD it back to the listserv address above if reply to the confirmation does not work. Best wishes to your Star Trek writing ventures.
