This is collection of Star Trek fan fiction. This on-line fiction archive and the fanzines (fan-produced publications) from which the material was taken were created out of our love for Star Trek in all its forms, and they are not intended to infringe upon the established Star Trek copyrights of the estate of Gene Roddenberry, Norway Productions, Paramount, NBC-TV, ABC-TV, Microsoft, Filmation, Simon & Schuster, Gulf+Western, DC Comics, Marvel Comics, Gold Key Comics, Malibu Comics, Harve Bennett, Rick Berman nor those rights of any other holders of Star Trek copyrights nor those of anyone else who has half a mind to sue me.

Note: ORION PRESS is a non-profit fanzine press. Viacom and Paramount own Star Trek. We only borrow it out of our love for it, and all income goes to pay only the printing and postage costs of producing these zines. Anyone who thinks I or any other fanzine editor makes money at this has 1) never met my wife who will tell you otherwise, 2) never done it themselves, otherwise, they'd know better and/or 3) not looked at my bank account since 1979.
