Keith R.A. DeCandido Interview With StarTrekBookClub.com

This is the longest of the interviews, we started talked and just straight up didn’t stop for another hour and a half later, there was just so much to talk about and Mr DeCandido is as affable of a person that I could ever want to talk to.  It helped that he’s been going to Shore Leave since 1992 when he went with the intent to interview authors and actors at the show, and ultimately did a ton of interviews.  He skipped a few years and returned in 2000 and was very much an official Star Trek author by that point.  He’s been to pretty much every show since then and at once point even stood in as a backup singer for George Takei during a musical number.  He’s even part of a band that plays at most of the shows, but due to the schedule change won’t be at the show this year (boooo).

Here’s Keith in the background during a previous performance:

We spoke about his next book, Feat of Clay, which is current in the Kickstarter phase. It’s already hit it’s goals, but it’s always nice to see more support come in for it.

During the wild west days of digital readers, before the Kindle came along, Star Trek had The Starfleet Corps of Engineers, a series of novella length stories that would come out on a regular basis.  It wasn’t necessarily a subscription service, but you could count on a new one being out frequently.  It was unfortunately canceled right before the Kindle took off and we have a great conversation about how cool it would be to have something like this again, especially with modern subscription services (Patreon, substack, Webtoons, etc) being generally accepted.

There’s a ton of other stuff discussed ranging from writer’s revenue streams, the publishers he’s worked for, the licensed properties he’s worked for (including but not limited to Resident Evil, Supernatural, Farscape), and the next collection of Star Trek short fiction that’s due out in October.

This was a fantastic conversation that’s worth your time!
