“The Abode of Life”: Star Trek Novelization Vangie13 cbr #20

February 9, 2014 by Vangie13 2 Comments

by Lee Correy “May I call to your attention, Captain, that our present course takes us disturbingly near the reported gravitational turbulence reported by Federation ships in this sector of the Orion Arm?” As usual, Spock was both punctilious and logically correct in his assessment of the situation.”  These are the very first lines.  This does not BODE well. While on a routine mapping mission, Enterprise hits a fold in space and is instantly transported millions of hundreds of kellicams away to a place unpopulated […]

“The Prometheus Design”: Star Trek Novelization Vangie13 cbr #19

February 8, 2014 by Vangie13 2 Comments

by Sondra Marshak and Myrna Culbreath “The two Vulcans moved as one. Spock began chopping into the no-mouths with great double-handed blows that no flesh could stand against.  Savaj picked up a no-mouth and used it as a battering ram.  Rand stiff-armed the cone-noses with the heel of her hand.  Scott found some way of heaving them over, and McCoy was making some effort to come up over the top after Kirk.” So, Marshak and Culbreath.  We meet again. Who knows what the hell these […]

A BFF finds TLA

February 8, 2014 by Another Kate Leave a Comment

Patience Bloom says:  “Around five a.m. I put on my clothes—noticing my boots are still on—and leave his apartment. The victorious rush of leaving without being asked fuels me. I am such a strong, independent woman who doesn’t need to linger. I can’t waste a second since I have an entire day in which to spread the news of my whorishness. I want to scream across the Île Saint-Louis, I just had my first one-night stand! But I don’t since it’s five in the morning […]

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes with Feng Shui

February 7, 2014 by xoxoxoe 1 Comment

I am definitely on a quest this year, to improve my health, my life, my surroundings. I have been making some changes around the house, trying to eliminate clutter and make our environment more eco-friendly as well as aesthetically pleasing. Our home life is still in a bit of disarray — this is a months-long project — but I am hopeful that by mid-Spring I will finally get my home as I want it, which will have all sorts of great effects on our lives.
