If I was a famous author I would publish a book with ten different endings which all went to print with varying degrees of rarity, but not tell the fans about it so that I could watch their confusion as they disagree over how the story ended. Then when they figured it out I would ‘come clean’, telling them that I had released eleven alternate endings and watch them panic again as they all try to find the last ending.
This is perfect.
Sometimes when I’m researching for a Trek fic I like to pretend I’m writing a paper for the Academy.
WHAT IS THIS, A STARSHIP FOR ANTS?
THE STARSHIP HAS TO BE AT LEAST…THREE TIMES THIS SIZE
I just realized that “pun intended” is a pun on “unintended” and I’m literally about to gouge my eyes out I’m so angry
This. Changes. Everything.
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.

Surprise beautiful person! Once you get this, you must put it into at least 8 people’s asks (anonymously) who deserve it. If you break the chain, nothing will happen, but it is nice to know that someone thinks you’re beautiful inside and out. ♥
Aww thank you so much.
"In my late twenties, I went to a panel on writing for Star Trek, around the time of the Northridge earthquake [1994]. After the class, I was walking out of the hall when an aftershock hit. I looked up at all the shaking tiers of the building and there were people in Star Trek uniforms running about, and I thought: “This is just like the show — we’re under Romulan attack!"
"I had insisted on half women on board [the Enterprise]. The network came to me and said, ‘You can’t have half women. Our people say it will make it look like a ship with all sorts of mad sexual things going on – half men and half women.’ So we argued about it like a poker game and they finally said, ‘Okay. We’ll settle for one-third women.’ I figured one-third women could take care of the males anyway."
