I propose UlyssesT controls all sci-fi treat writing in Hollywood
You have any idea how bored I would be if absolutely everything that was ever churned out of the genre was directly by my say-so? I want to be surprised, even challenged with my entertainment. It'd be kind of fucked up if I only read my own stories, after all. That's exactly why I'm basically grieving for Trek's squandered potential while the Kurtzman-era hacks continue to smear their shit all over it.
Lower Decks, Prodigy, and (to some extent) SNW are good in spite of Kurtzman's presence. He's constantly pushing for his precious Section 31 project and anything he gets more direct control over becomes smeared with P R E S T I G E T V misery-for-misery's-sake, cheap sloppy sensationalism, and contrarianism against Trek's founding themes, which has hurt Trek long enough.
I think his proposal is more like chief censor, rather than the sole writer
I would humbly (and gladly) accept some special position to shoot down P R E S T I G E T V shit before it percolates into modern Trek, that's for sure.
Would you ever write a scifi story though?
One book trilogy so far, some supplemental short stories, and a new project still in the making now.
I mean if you want to read them, I can send you some links on private message.
You can finish projects without abandoning them like I do?
Nowadays, I often can, but often with prolonged delays and setbacks.
So relatable

I forgot about that
Edit: is Tuggy a funny joke pseudonym name?
It's actually from an old sailor term for people that pull boats up river, often with the assistance of horses.
