Bantam Books catalog: Y2151. }} Star Trek Lives! (1975) is a reference work that explores the relationship between the Star Trek television series, and the fandom that emerged following the series' cancellation, co-written by Jacqueline Lichtenberg, Sondra Marshak, and Joan Winston. The book is among the earliest mainstream publications to discuss Star Trek convention culture, fanzines and fan fiction. The ninth chapter contains an essay by Lichtenberg and Marshak on the structure of fan fiction, and how a fan would go about writing it. ProductionJacqueline Lichtenberg, a professionally published author whose Kraith fan fiction was regularly published by fanzines, explored the possibility of selling an article, or series of articles, to newspapers concerning the growing Star Trek fandom.[1] She began research in late 1971. While building a directory on fan clubs, their activities, and the growing number of fan published newsletters, and fanzines, she realized there was more potential for a reference book on the subject than a newspaper article.[1] Science fiction fanzines had existed prior to Star Trek, however their focus was on publishing articles, research pieces, and letters from fans. Star Trek fanzines were also publishing fan fiction, some of which Lichtenberg believed was comparable to the television series.[2] A query package was assembled by Lichtenberg, and shared with publishers. However, the query was rejected by all, including by Frederick Pohl at Bantam Books, who were publishing a series episode novelizations by James Blish, and who had also published Blish's original Star Trek novel, Spock Must Die! (1970). Only after James Blish had failed to deliver a new Star Trek novel, did Pohl agree to buy Lichtenberg's book without having seen a draft.[3][4] Lichtenberg recruited fellow fan writer Sondra Marshak, and television producer Joan Winston, to help draft and finish the book. Gene Roddenberry was commissioned to write an introduction. Myrna Culbreath also provided some input.[4] Her character analysis on the Spock character, "The Spock Premise," was cited in the acknowledgements.[5]According to Lichtenberg, the book took several years to write.[3] The final draft, delivered to Pohl, had undergone significant changes from the original premise, so the authors were unable to agree on a title. The title, Star Trek Lives!, and the subtitle "Personal Notes and Anecdotes" were chosen by the publisher.[6] Plans to include a comprehensive directory of fan clubs, fanzines, and selections of curated fan fiction were withdrawn, due to length, and publication cost. The professional publication of fan fiction idea became The New Voyages.[4] Released in {{Date|Jul 1975|}}, Star Trek Lives! sold well, and was given eight printings between 1975 and 1979.[7][8] Contents
ReceptionAccording to Lichtenberg, the initial reaction among fans was mixed as "they were expecting a history of the fandom."[9] One fan wrote a scathing review in a letter to The Halkan Council (1975), saying they felt cheated since "I would much rather have [read] an analysis of the fans of Star Trek … than of the show itself."[10] Lichtenberg agreed with the reviewer's feelings that many fans felt a true anthropological study of "the fandom [was] rare and invaluable"[10] In subsequent interviews, she admitted that "Star Trek Lives! was not perfect."[9][11] Other fans reflected differently on the book. Sue Bursztynski wrote in her review of Harry, A History (2008) that Star Trek Lives! "let me know that this sort of thing was going on, and what kind of activities fans got up to."[12] Fan fiction writer Patricia Poole said in Anne Jamison's Fic: Why Fanfiction is Taking Over The World (2014) that she was "stunned" to find things she had written "transformed into pages in a real book."[13] Poole had corresponded with Lichtenberg on the subject of "the discovery effect," inspired by her experiences at a Detroit-area Star Trek convention. Gary McGath wrote, in an issue of the MIT student-run editorial Ergo (1975), that Star Trek was far from the perfect "romantic drama," but Star Trek Lives! "does the best job thus far of showing just what the series accomplishes."[14] Likewise, Winston Howlett wrote in an issue of fanzine Probe that readers should not be deterred from "picking up and reading this very well-written[,] and very entertaining book." And that it belongs on every fan's shelf, "for it makes up a large, healthy chunk of the [Star Trek] saga, telling where we've been, where we are now, and where we hope to be going."[15] The writers, Lichtenberg, Marshak and Winston, are called the "foremothers of fanfiction scholarship" by Francesca Coppa in The Fanfiction Reader (2017), because of their work on Star Trek Lives!, and the catalyzing effect the book had on fandom scholarship.[16] Edward Gross and Mark A. Altman describe the book as "seminal" in The Fifty Year Mission (2016).[17] J.M. Verba, in her fandom retrospective Boldly Writing (2003), credited Star Trek Lives! for increasing "fanzine recognition far beyond the wildest dreams of any editor."[18] See also
