I’ve been writing since I can remember, everything from romance to science fiction. I’ve had some moderate success, but keep the ultimate goal to have novels in print. Meantime, I’ve got my day job as a family law attorney, my night job as parent to three children with special needs, and I write when I can. Find out more at http://awalkabout.wordpress.com

The Only Limit is Your Imagination
Did you ever watch a Trek episode and think, "I could have done better than that!" Now you have your chance. This fall, the Great Lakes Film Association (GLFA) is making it possible for Star Trek fans to live a dream--to take their vision of Star Trek and share it with the world.
The Final Frontier Confest comes to Erie, Pennsylvania November 7 and 8, 2008, hosted by the GLFA and the IKV Ice Dragon, part of the Klingon Armada International Fleet. The IKV Ice Dragon is based in Erie and has about 20 members who meet to celebrate the honor of Trek, as well as perform many charitable activities in the community.
The Confest claims to bring a unique opportunity in the category of Star Trek conventions-- "A Star Trek film festival made by Star Trek fans for Star Trek Fans."
Movies may be submitted for consideration in several categories, including short film (30 minutes or less) , feature-length film (more than 30 minutes), and episodes. These can be live action, stop-action or animated. Films can be made in English, German, French--even Klingon or Romulan-- as long as they have English subtitles.
Winners will have the opportunity to have their film seen by agents and producers, as well as sharing with others like-minded.
The entry fees increase as the summer goes on, so get those cameras rolling! For entry forms and more details, see the Confest site. . Q'apla!
