In this episode I interview fanfiction writer Borealisblue about her Star Trek fic 'A Voice In The Dark' and her gorgeous Star Trek fan art. She shares her first introduction to fanfiction through a college classmate, her early days posting Toy Story fics to FFN, and how those fics later came back to haunt her in art school. She describes the joys of watching Star Trek The Original Series for the very first time and noticing the palpable on-screen chemistry between Kirk and Spock. We discuss slow burns, romance, and the murder mystery elements in her fic and pay homage to the Star Trek community's incredible contributions to fanfiction writing and the rise of modern fandom. She shares the creation process for her beautiful Star Trek fan art and offers unique storyboard method writing tips.
Thank you for coming on the show, Borealisblue!
Keep on rollin'!
