About a month ago I finished my first-ever fanfic Trek Story entitled "Prophecies". It's part of a small series called Star Trek: Titan I have created. So far, I have other stories listed, along with a couple previews.
But I'd like to hear your opinions on "Prophecies" itself.

I'm not really comfortable with the format you've got it in. Too many breaks.

I didn't have time to read the whole thing (I'm at work, shhhh) but I really like the overall theme of the story. It sounds like a little more of the mystical. More of what DS9 tried somewhat unsuccessfully to do in the last two seasons of the show.
I also like many of the episode titles you've come up with, particularly, "Where you least expect it". I thought many of them sounded very compelling. What i would be interested in reading is a synopsis of each episode.
If you'd ever considered publication, or selling your manuscripts to the people who do the Trek books, click on the link to my site below and e-mail me from there. I have some thoughts on that that you might like to think about

The reason for the breaks is because of where I built my webpage, Express Page. Due to my limited HTML abilities, Express Page is perfect for me, since all I have to do is type in what I want the page to say, and it automatically does all the basic HTMLing. Unfortunatly, they limit you to how much you can type. Therefore, each chapter is extremly short, and everything seems to be done in a hurry, or broken in half to fit into two chapters. But, oh well, it still serves it's purpose. Giving me a place to put my stories.
