Dork & Spaz Productions

Dork & Spaz Productions is a cooperative effort between long-time friends and co-writers Michelle M. Chase and Scott R. Stevens. They started out writing their own separate fan stories until one day Michelle got the idea that they should entwine their character's fates.

Scott's character is Apollo Archanus Racer. A twenty-first century military pilot who was inadvertently frozen by a collision with a comet to be later defrosted in the 23rd century. Scott and Apollo make up the "Dork" half of this writing team.

Michelle's character is named Allucia Artemis Banks. Also from the twenty-first century, she makes her way to the 24th century accidently, and the causes for what sent her through time stay slightly mysterious for her first few novels. Michelle and Allucia are the "spaz" half of the team.

The name "Dork & Spaz Productions" was devised by Michelle. Being friends they constantly teased each other; Michelle often called Scott a dork when he would go super nerdy or silly and she was often called a spaz for overreacting to everything as well as being a clutz in general.

Michelle and Scott are into many fandoms other geeks can appreciate such as anime/manga, comic books, and even Star Wars. They eventually crossed over many other fandoms into their own stories; however they kept the emphasis on the Star Trek universe. Their intent is to try to make their crossovers make sense and not just randomly toss in other fandoms without seriously thinking through how to make said crossovers work.

Aside from using other fandoms for inspiration, they also draw events from Star Trek canon and non-canon.

About seven years ago they had written far enough ahead in the established canon Star Trek timeline (taking all television series into account) that they have spent much of the past year rewriting entire scenes to reflect these changes.
