I've liked SciFi pretty much since I figured out how to read. I cut my teeth on Start Trek: The Next Generation and Issac Asimov. I read a lot of Weber and Heinlein now.

Star Trek: Aurora-That said, I've been somewhat disappointing with what Hollyweird has done to Star Trek lately. I support the hypothesis of a friend of mine that Enterprise was nothing more than a bad holo-novel written by Tom Paris. That said, I love stories about survival and the frontier, and decided to write one about a new colony. One without the fancy nickle-slick tech the Fleet always has access too. A place where an industrial replicator may be used to make a hitch-cart for a horse team. Where people work and sweat and bleed. Where sometimes the proper way to fix the atomic reactor is to hit it with a wrench. Where de-greaser and vodka are the same thing. That is Star Trek: Aurora.

SG14-My take on the Stargate universe, this is technically an AU storyline. The main differences are that, in SG14, 9-11 really happened and the SGC is feeling the effects in terms of morale, budget and personnel cuts. They are being expected to do the same job with less. Further, SG14 is going to be a little more hard military. The Chain of Command exists, most teams are enlisted personnel, etc. SG Teams don't get to use P90s just because some guy in the props department thinks they're sexy. In point of fact, they'll mostly be stuck with older inventory or test units that the Air Force is done with. Supplies will be short, creativity will be required, because damn it, you can only strangle so many Jaffa with a shoestring before it breaks.
