TV CONCEPTS
I am currently developing a spy/treasure hunting novel set in '50s South America that eventually leads to Nazis in Antarctica. I'd like to write a short story prequel first to get myself into the universe.
I'm also cooking up a multi-arc short story idea for "The Eespote Gate."

A new form of radio is created, and there's already a message being received ... from the dark side of the moon.

"Splitting Hairs" - SF
The first discovered alien race seems to have less intelligence than rabbits. When one of them is murdered, though, questions arise as these demure creatures start to retaliate.
"Tides of Deception" - Spy

"Death on Fire Mountain" - Horror
In the far future, most humans have evolved into werewolf-like creatures. When one of the last normals gets bitten, an old hermit reveals the secret to staying human is on Fire Mountain. However, werewolves are the last of your worries on Fire Mountain.
"Crunching Numbers" - SF
In the near future, the world is picked clean of resources. The World Government has commissioned an agency dedicated to relieving over-population by killing those who hide in the dark corners of society--a hundred years in the past.

In the years between TOS and TNG, the Enterprise-C is tasked with peacekeeping between the Klingon and Romulan borders. We've seen Gamma (DS9), Delta (VOY), and Alpha Quadrant (ENT, TOS, TNG) lifeforms, but who, or what inhabits the Beta Quadrant, beyond those two warring empires?
The Questor Files - SF / Drama
Using a woman as the robotic lead, this series would take Gene Roddenberry's 1974 TV pilot and make it the connective tissue between all his creations. The premise is an android was left to help guide the human species into benevolence, without revealing that she's assisting.
