Star Trek As We Know It Blogfest (August 22nd)

I'm skipping my WIP Update post this week to tell you about my exciting new blogfest - the Star Trek As We Know It Blogfest.


As I'm sure most of you know, I love Star Trek. I also know a lot of you feel the same way. So why not do a blogfest just about Star Trek? Have I tempted you yet? Here are the details on how to take part:

  • Leave your name and rank on the linky below (i.e. scienceofficergarratt).
  • On August 22nd post your top five Star Trek characters and episodes and/or films, and tell us why you love them.
  • Warp your way over to as many of your Starfleet comrades as you can and comment on their choices.
  • Spread the word on all hailing frequencies, and feel free to post the image on your blog.
  • Wear red at your peril.

Remember - the needs of the many bloggers outweigh the needs of the one!

I am very excited about this and have already picked 6 favorite episodes! I'll have to cut one out, but which one? Oh, the dilemma!

Donna K. Weaver said...

I am so in. You do know that my user name at the Harry Potter forum where I'm a moderator is a Star Trek character name, don't you? lol

welcome to my world of poetry said...

Good luck with the blogfest, sorry I am not a sci fi fan......now my late husband was into all that.

Have fun and good luck to all who enter,
Yvonne.

Madeleine said...

Sorry I couldn't resist being a Captain LOL! ;O)

Sarah McCabe said...

I'm not the biggest Star Trek fan, but this sounds like fun. :)

Milo James Fowler said...

Great idea -- and now with Netflix streaming ALL of the original Star Trek + TNG episodes, I have no excuse!

Morgan said...

Great Idea! I had only seen a few star trek episodes until they had a marathon on TV the other day and I've been watching them ever since...

I'll have to get a little more familiar with it before I put my name down to participate, but I'm sure I'll be stopping by and reading everyone's posts :)

Donna Hole said...

Of fun. I haven't watch the original Star Trek in years.

Martin T. Ingham said...

As a recovering trek-o-holic, how could I pass on this? Nearly a month to get ready, too! Plenty of time to sample some source material.

James Garcia Jr said...

Okay, I may not be the biggest Trekkie, but Wrath of Khan is one of my fav's! Ever! So I'm in!
Now, I borrowed Kirk's title for my identity on your list because William Shatner and I share birthdays. Seriously. March 22.

I don't think I'll be able to join up to the fleet, but I'll definitely follow the adventure. Live long and prosper... (sorry, had to).

Damyanti said...

I had fans in my family, but unfortunately never got to become one myself...will follow everyone on their journey though :)

MorningAJ said...

Great idea but I just don't think of it that way. K would be perfect for this though!

Simon Kewin said...

It is a good day for a Blogfest! I'm in ...

Ooh, tempting! I do love Star Trek and there are a few episodes that I'm in love with! I need to do my research first since I saw those when I was an oblivious teen. ;)

Okay, so I couldn't resist and decided to join even if I can think one specific episode! I have until the 22nd to dig!

Dan said...

Ooh, geek fun! Awesome, I'm in.

Pk Hrezo said...

I think I just had a nerdgasm.

Totally in. :)

James Garcia Jr said...

Lol! "Nerdgasm"? Too funny, PK. Sadly, I'm 100% sure my wife has had to fake those with me...and on multiple occasions...

Kate said...

Well I don't normally do these but this one I simply can't resist!

Tessa Conte said...

LOL I'm not that knowledgable about Star Trek, much to my dismay, but I will add your blogfest to my sidebar list. And see what everyone has to say about it on the 22nd!

Tonja said...

My daughter's friends debate constantly whether Star Trek or Star Wars characters would dominate in battle. They doubt my knowledge, which is crazy.

We bloggers need a Star Wars nerdfest...I mean blogfest.

Rusty Webb said...

All signed up and ready to go!

I am so digging out all my ST memorabilia. Lordy, I hope no one drops in for Romulan ale. I’m on the last bottle. Or am I being Dr. Obvious again?

Rae Lori said...

This is so cool! Saw the link from Smart Girls Love SciFi and I had to sign up! :-D

Looking forward to it!

Hutch said...

Oh, this is going to be good, in a logical kind of way of course.

Admin said...

This will be really great.

Check out my math blog.

Alyce said...

I wish I could participate, but I have a blog tour post going up that day. My favorite Next Generation episode of all time is from Season Five - The Inner Light. I'm a flute player, so that part of the ep. was like cherry on the cake. :)

Caitlin said...

Oh man, it's a little late in the day, but I'm jumping in on this. What a fun one!
