Last year, Eric Klien and I got together to turn a Star Trek story idea that I had into a script that we could then submit to Paramount for consideration. We submitted it around September of 1990 and in November received a rejection notice from Paramount for it. I thought people might be interested in seeing what a standard ST:TNG rejection notice looks like. _________________________________________________________ |At the top of the page is a picture of a galaxy on a dark| |background, and the words | | | | STAR | | TREK THE NEXT GENERATION | | | |in the typical ST:TNG type style and size. | |_________________________________________________________| November 2, 1990 Mr. Eric Klien & Mr. David Mears << Addresses deleted >> Dear Eric & David: Thank you for sending the spec teleplay ``The Ghosts of Yesteryear''. Although the producers appreciate your interest in writing for ``Star Trek: The Next Generation'', they are not interested in pursuing this material further. Due to the high volume of submissions, and a multitude of reasons, most script submissions cannot be used. Therefore, it is impossible for our writing staff to provide individual notes or comments on returned scripts. I have enclosed our fourth season script guidelines, which may be helpful on future submissions. Sincerely, << Signature here >> Eric A. Stillwell Script Coordinator EAS/kz enclosure David B.
