More writing

wiseheartSo, having dealt with long and incredible complicated projects lately, like Kansas 2 and the upcoming Torchwoodgate parts, I felt the sudden urge to write something simple and straightforward. Thus I dug out one of the Star Trek - TNG stories-in-planning and gave it a head start. "Terminus" is one of those rejected episode plots I pick up sometimes and turn into a story. Honest, down-to-earth action/adventure stuff, with a pinch of romance, set in Season 3, when the Trekkiverse was still simple and optimistic. I expect somewhere between 6 and 10 chapters, depending how often I'll get sidetracked. It will be therapeutic, I think.
I've rewatched some early SG - Atlantis episodes for Torchwoodgate and sometimes watch the rernuns of the various Star Trek series on German TV. It's a shame that there hasn't been that kind of sci-fi made for at least a decade. This new stuff is just boring and depressing. I gave Agent of SHIELDS a try but never got beyond the pilot episode. It isn't even what I'd call proper sci-fi, and I find it boring. I don't really care for the characters, and the whole background is just way too complicated. I did some research to understand what's going on, but in the end I didn't find it worth the effort.
Tried my luck with Stargate - Universe again, in the hope that with enough distance from the first two series I might see its appeal. I still don't. In fact, I found it more insulting and annoying the second time around. So I gave up on it again. Pity, because the visuals are amazing sometimes. But that's just not enough.
