Shore Leave 30 Guest: Terri Osborne
Biography:
Terri Osborne is a writer, an award-winning costumer, and an unrepentant fangirl. Her professional fiction debut was the critically-acclaimed "Three Sides to Every Story" in 2003's Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Prophecy and Change anthology, which chronicled the brief friendship between Jake Sisko and Tora Ziyal during the Dominion's occupation of Deep Space Nine. Jacqueline Bundy of TrekNation called it "an insightful and poignant story" and "extremely enjoyable. Osborne was ultimately able to make the sight, smells and bustle of life on the station come alive," and Tim Lynch of TV Zone magazine cited it as one of his two favorites, and said it "focus[ed] on interesting characters" and "successfully fill[ed] in gaps that really flesh out the characters." She also wrote the more light-hearted story of Dr. Selar's encounter with the Q, "'Q'uandary" in the New Frontier: No Limits anthology, and the landmark fiftieth installment of the Starfleet Corps of Engineers series, a 24th Century locked-room murder mystery entitled Malefictorum. Another recent adventure in the Trek universe was her account of the EMH's three years living among the Tahal-Meeroj entitled "Eighteen Minutes" in 2005's Star Trek: Voyager: Distant Shores anthology.Next up was Star Trek: Starfleet Corps of Engineers #61: "Progress" (2006), where she took us back to the people of Drema IV and caught up with a young woman named Sarjenka.
Star Trek adventures planned for this year are SCE e-books "Remembrance of Things Past" (Books 1 and 2), due out later in 2007, and "Slings and Arrows: That Sleep of Death," part of the Slings and Arrows miniseries that will cover the first year of the Enterprise-E's shakedown.
Outside of the Trek universe, she is currently working on several original fiction projects, set in places as near as Dublin, Ireland in 1940 and as far as the surface of Mars in the year 2035. Visit Terri's official web site at terriosborne.com.
