J.P. Linde
Writer
Picture
​J.P. Linde’s love of storytelling started unexpectedly when he convinced male classmates of his 6th-grade class that Elizabeth Montgomery, the star of Bewitched, was his girlfriend. Since that fateful day, J.P. Linde has worked as an actor in summer-stock productions of  Our Town, Hot L Baltimore, and The Misanthrope and, thankfully, did not appear nude during any performances of the musical Hair. He was one of the founding members of the Portland, Oregon comedy scene,  establishing the improvisational and sketch comedy group, No Prisoners, and appearing in his own one-person show, Casually Insane. He has worked as a professional stand-up comedian, making his national television debut on Showtime’s Comedy Club Network. His musical Wild Space, A Go Go, had its world premiere in Portland at The Embers in 2011.  He has written three novels. His latest,  The Last Argonaut, will be published in 2024 by Pro Se Productions. He co-wrote the horror cult classic Axe to Grind and has worked with some of the leading producers in film and television.
From J.P. Linde Media and El Dorado Press:

A desperate Wyatt Earp pursues Jack London, a boy, and a
grizzled mountain man in a race for a legendary gold mine


Fool's Gold 

The new novel from J.P. Linde

"Not only is J.P. Linde's FOOL's GOLD a barn burner of a snow western adventure tale, it's also a love story. Linde clearly loves his genre, loves creating within it and loves to keep his readers on the edge of their seat."    Richard Melo (Author of Happy Talk and Jokerman 8).
Also by J.P. and available on 
Amazon!

"J.P. Linde has successfully delivered a novel that is both a loving homage to the pulp fiction genre and a hilarious satire of it. "

Star Trek: PP (Paramount Plus Shows Ranked)

Okay, so I have watched all of them. What can I say other than I am an unapologetic Trekker. In offer of proof, I testify that I have seen Star Trek: The Motion Picture more than any one person, anywhere, living, or dead. And I dare you to prove me wrong.
 
Now, just to be clear, none the series I have ranked here are pre–Paramount BP (Before Plus). As much as I would love to talk about the real relationship between Miles O’ Brien and Dr. Julien Bashir, we will leave that for another day. 
 
Note: Please keep in mind, that generally I like all these shows. It’s just that some of them I love more than others. And, as much as I want to see an animated Kate Mulgrew teaching us life lessons like a holographic librarian, I neglected to include ST: Prodigy.
 
5. ST: Discovery
 
First two seasons while sometimes uneven provide a fun mix of adventure, nostalgia, and original storytelling. Once the show jumps ahead into the future, it seems to lose its way.  
 
4. ST: Lower Decks
 
An animated half hour comedy series based on the adventures of lower deck crewmembers is a great idea. The voice actors are suburb and carry off their assignments with a palatable glee. Good trek is funniest when the humor is not forced. In animation, things need to be a bit bigger, more exaggerated and I’m not entirely sure it works. 
 
3. ST: Short Treks
 
I am a huge fan of this show. The easily digestible storytelling is sometimes the hardest, but these writers make it look so easy. Some standout episodes to me are Q & A, featuring Spock’s first day on the Enterprise and Ephraim and Dot which takes us on a delightful tour of Star Trek Canon.
 
2. ST: Picard
 
This number two slot is well deserved. And it moved here solely based on season two. I do not want to give away any spoilers, but the last episode is a tear-jerker and one of the finest episodes ever written for any Star Trek series. Bravo!
 
 
Drum Roll!
 
ST: Strange New Worlds
 
Very respectful of Canon but not afraid to take a chance or two. A throwback to all the things that make Star Trek great. We are not even through with the first season and there has not been an episode that I have not loved. Too many standout performances to mention. Anson Mount’s Pike is incredible, as well as Celia Rose Gooding as Uhura and Jess Bush bringing so many new dimensions into the life of Christine Chapel.  Enjoy Episode 8 (The Elysian Kingdom)! Both hilarious and heartwarming. 
 
Live long and prosper.
