:As a life-long Star Trek fan, I discovered to my abject horror at the end of 2009 that my partner had never seen a single episode! Accordingly, I took her to see the first of the J.J. Abrams reboots and she was hooked. We sat down and watched all the Trek I had onhand (which, of course, was everything). Rapidly exhausting my stockpile of episodes, and my own personal passion reinvigorated, I went looking for Play By Email communities to join- my search lead me directly to UFOP:Starbase-118.
:The application process required me to write a 250 word story set in the Trek universe. This surprised me, but now looking back I think it's an way to get the writing juices flowing early, and to make you think about the character you're going to play before you play it! In short order I was placed into the Academy, and wow. What a ride. As they say, the rest is history!
:The UFOP:Starbase-118 community maintains the highest quality of writing standards, but also fosters an atmosphere of tolerance and acceptance. If you're looking for a place to improve your writing, then this is the place- my writing has improved out of sight in the close-to-a-year I've been playing now. The command staff and the other writers here are, to put it simply, wonderful... collectively they will help you in every aspect of your writing and encourage you to reach for the stars.
:The rest is up to you.
