:59:02
Tasha and Sela together again.
:59:04
This is a kind of
:59:06
King Arthur- Knights
of the Round Table motif.

:59:09
Sela, looking tough.
:59:11
A lot of times,
kids send me things.

:59:14
Nice lucite box
they sent it to me in.

:59:16
This is Tasha
done in needlepoint.

:59:20
It is, I think, my favorite.
:59:22
This is a very imaginative pose.
:59:26
At first, I've got to tell you,
I was actually shocked,

:59:28
and then I kind of really
have grown to appreciate it.

:59:33
Spiner: What was weird to me
when I saw the first one

:59:36
was not just how they got
my naked body perfect--

:59:40
I mean, it was just
a perfect rendition--

:59:42
but yours was almost specific.
I mean, it--

:59:45
Are you filming?
:59:47
Star Trek is unique in that
we are the only television show

:59:51
that has an open-script
submission policy.

:59:53
We will take scripts
from anyone in the world.

:59:56
I once had a fan come in dressed
in a Starfleet uniform,

1:00:00
who was calling himself
Ensign Jones,

1:00:03
and all of his stories,
of course, had to do with

1:00:06
Ensign Jones taking control
of the Enterprise,

1:00:09
or Ensign Jones goes
to the Klingon home world,

1:00:12
or, you know, stuff like that--
1:00:14
Ensign Jones
travels through time.

1:00:16
I write in the original
Trek genre,

1:00:19
involving the characters
of Kirk and Spock.

1:00:22
I write slash
that appears on the internet.

1:00:25
You're talking
about the K/S zines.

1:00:27
The Kirk/Spock fetish groups.
1:00:29
The term means one character
with another, like Kirk "slash" Spock.

1:00:34
We thought that either Gene or
the studio would put a stop to it,

1:00:37
but the studio never really
seemed to care

1:00:40
because we're talking
very small circulations.

1:00:41
We're all very normal ladies--
mostly housewives.

1:00:44
Who want to read sexual
stories about Kirk and Spock

1:00:48
but don't want to see them
with other women.

1:00:50
The mailing list I'm on
is completely anonymous.

1:00:53
Why is it important
that your identity not be revealed?

1:00:57
Because of the controversial nature.
1:00:59
We're living in a culture
that isn't as progressive,
