ABOUT "STAR TREK: DEFIANT":

"Star Trek: Defiant" is a full-cast, ongoing sci-fi serial adventure based upon the Star Trek television series.

Defiant started off as a text-based story list in early October of 1995. Believe it or not, that list is still around. I actually met my wife there. :)

But back then, Defiant was really something new and different on the newborn, barren wasteland of the internet. A bunch of fans with a similar passion for Star Trek came together and formed close friendships while telling stories about our fictional crew set upon my favorite of all the Star Trek ships, the USS Defiant (of Deep Space Nine fame).

You may notice that an awful lot of the characters share names with the people who created them/actors who play them, including myself. Back then we didn't know who each other were, and so it was a decision we made to name a bunch of the characters after ourselves simply so that we could learn each other's names. Not a very exciting story, perhaps, but there it is. :)

Defiant has a long and rich history that all of its members have formed together over the past decade, and it's my complete honor to bring Defiant to a wider audience in the realm of audio. We are absolutely making it accessible to everyone, so you don't need to know ten years of Defiant history in order to understand or enjoy the episodes. But we will try to incorporate some of the more major events from our past into some storylines to help new listeners learn more about Defiant and the universe she interacts in.

Welcome aboard the USS Defiant.

Boldly go.

"Would anyone be interested in taking on directing duties upon Star Trek Defiant as soon as possible? Just let me know."

Would anyone be interested? I don't know about the rest of you but I sure as hell am. When the email came round asking for someone to take control of directing Defiant, there was no way I was going to miss the opportunity.

I can't imagine my life without Star Trek. No really, I can't. I discovered it all by myself at the innocent age of eight and was instantly hooked by the adventure, the stories, the characters and the big-ass space battles. I loved it all and went out of my way to make sure I caught every episode as it aired on BBC2. Between me and my brother, we recorded from TV the majority of trek that came out from 1992 to 2000. Those VHS tapes still exist in my parent's attic, much to their chagrin.

It wasn't just the sci-fi elements that grabbed me though. Even as a young kid I was inspired by the elements of a better society, one that had gone beyond the petty squabbling over money and land and was putting its efforts and energy towards a greater purpose. There were still problems, there were still those seduced by wealth and power but the majority fought against it and fought against their own flaws and failings in the ongoing quest to become better people. Star Trek challenged and questioned things that others in the world just accepted. It was the first show to have an 'interracial' kiss on TV, it was the first show to have a kiss between two women and they had a Russian on the Enterprise during the COLD WAR! Certain people were outraged and you know if you're outraging certain people, you're doing something right.

The world today is a very different place than it was when Star Trek was first born. The Cold War is over and statutory racism has supposedly been quashed. The integration of a Russian into the crew is no longer a story nor is a kiss between a black woman and white man but there is certainly a whole wealth of social commentary a show such as Star Trek can make.

I am now 23 and I watched, with a growing sadness, as Trek got caught in its own hype and refused to question the social 'norms' that is had once challenged so readily. We never saw same sex relationships in any form except the aforementioned kiss, the federation stopped exploring and just started shooting, the show seemed much more concerned about churning out another high octane Borg fight than a well constructed story and more and more the aliens of the week were the 'bad guys' who needed to be stopped by the 'great' Federation. The show didn't grow and develop, the writers became lazy and the vision became blurred.

The final nail hit the coffin in June 2005 when Enterprise, even after a fantastic fourth season just couldn't sell itself to an audience now captured by Battlestar Galactica, Lost and Firefly. That seemed to be the end of Trek as we knew it.

Spin forward seven months and I'm stumbling across Pendant Audio in much the same way I one stumbled across Star Trek. Not long after I joined the group, the first episode of Star Trek Defiant aired and suddenly I could hear all the reasons that I had fallen in love with the show as a kid. I am so happy to be involved with a production that is maintaining that Trek feel as well as also striking out to forge new ground in the political and sociological sphere.

Entertainment, be it on the screen, audio or in book form should seek to amaze and astound you but I strongly feel it should never be for entertainments sake alone. If you're going to tell a story, make sure it means something both to you and to your audience. On Defiant, Jeffery has successfully done all of the above and more, putting Star Trek back where it should be. Not just battles in space but a mirror on our own world and way of life.

The trials that affect us today will not be those of the future, just as those that affected us in 1966 are not that ones we battle with today. There will always be trials though, there will always be struggles and conflicts and in any vision of the future it is important to show these. It is also important to show the developments, the breakthroughs, the triumphs and the successes that we have the potential of making. Star Trek has always been the perfect show to do this and whilst on the small and big screen it may have lost its way out here on the glorious World Wide Web the fans and the dreamers make sure it lives on as it should.

To everyone reading this, fan, member or passer by, have a listen and let us know what you think. Star Trek is for all, it gives us the dream and the ideal that once we have overcome the problems facing us here, we look to the stars and we continue our voyages of discovery and wonder far into the future.

The Defiant awaits. Step Aboard.

Director, "Star Trek: Defiant" (episodes 7 - 32)

One summer in college I read a book, “Star Trek: The New Voyages,” edited by Sondra Marshak and Myrna Culbreath which included a story by Claire Gabriel entitled “Ni Var,” dealing with both the concept of duality and heartfelt friendship. (Apparently I’m not the only one who felt a profound emotional resonance in this story -- in the most recent Star Trek television series, “Enterprise,” a Vulcan ship was named “Ni Var,” as an homage to Gabriel’s story.) It was after I read this collection that I wrote my first Star Trek story. I’d been writing science fiction from the time I was eleven (and still do), but I never thought about writing a Star Trek story. The idea that I might project myself into a fantasy future, that I might participate in that vision, that I might even fly with these people . . . well, that was a temptation too seductive to pass up and I had no intention of passing it up. In fact, I was willing to do whatever it took to dive in head-over-heels.

I did not continue writing stories set in the Star Trek universe, but a kind of Star Trek serial took place in my head (along with so many “other” worlds) over the years as a continued source of comfort and inspiration. It wasn’t until I met some interesting, wonderful people online on a list and was invited to join “Defiant,” a fan fiction list that I decided once again to actually write some organized Star Trek stories. This time, however, I’d be part of a “crew” of people, all of whom would be writing, with each other as characters. I was pleased and excited by the premise as well as the promise of what it meant. It seemed like a dream come true, that I could find these cool people like myself with whom I would be sharing a universe I had inhabited alone for a very long time.

I am going to take this moment and opportunity to speak of Jeffrey Bridges, the creator of the Defiant list and Pendant Productions. He invited me to join the original list and we discovered that we shared our writing ambitions in common with our other interests, which helped forge a bond that became a deep and abiding friendship. I have visited him and Susan and their son Clark (and they’re even more wonderful and fun in person). I trust him with outrageous ideas as well as secrets. He is not only a talented writer and director, (as well as possessing a seemingly endless source of creative energy), he is truly one of the best men I have ever known. When he asked me if I’d consider assuming responsibility for the writing duties of the Defiant audio series, I knew that it was an act of faith and trust, one that I embraced with the knowledge that acceptance meant in addition to what I conceived for the continuing Defiant story, it also meant honoring Jeffrey’s legacy. It is my intention and hope that I do so.

In the very first story I wrote for the Defiant list, I invoked the concept of “Ni Var,” with one of the other early members. We didn’t know each other, but I suggested that we write the story together about how we’d become (unlikely) friends at the Academy (her character was Vulcan and mine was Bajoran). What happened was that we became friends for real and although she’s no longer on the list, her friendship remains a warm and enduring memory because the story we wrote has endured. One of the miraculous aspects of creating any kind of art is that as long as someone sees/reads/hears it, it, and all that went into its creation, it lives on.

One of my idols is a science fiction writer named James Tiptree, Jr., aka Alice Sheldon. She wrote a story called “Beam Us Home,” in which a young boy believes in the Star Trek universe, that he really belongs there and although he’s teased about his oddness, he holds onto that belief throughout his life. He becomes an Air Force pilot, the closest he can come to what he believes is his true self and one day, yes, he’s “taken up” into a space ship. It’s not Kirk or Picard and crew, but they’re intelligent and understanding, and he knows that he has indeed come home.

Nine hundred and ninety-nine can’t bide
The shame or mocking or laughter,
But the Thousandth Man will stand by your side
To the gallows-foot—and after!

Excerpt from “The Thousandth Man” - Rudyard Kipling

We have expanded far beyond a fan fiction list into the medium of audio drama, added new crew for new functions (director), but through tears and fears, joys and triumphs, silences and transformations, the Defiant list has endured in large part for the same reasons that the Star Trek universe itself has endured. It possesses, through its people, its crew, the qualities that Gene Roddenberry envisioned for a future and its inhabitants in infinite diversities and infinite combinations: tolerance, loyalty, compassion, humor, humility in spite of technological advances, honor and friendship that go beyond duty and convention. We are each of us that one in a thousand, a combination of many who consider the needs of the one vital, a crew that has no need or desire to go anywhere but where we are because we are already and ultimately home.

But if you’re ready to join us in our adventures on the U.S.S. Defiant to the far and wondrous distance, we are waiting to beam you aboard.
