Virginia Sky is a fan fiction writer and a fanartist who began illustrating Star Trek: TOS, The Sentinel and Brokeback Mountain fanzines in the 2000s. She also participated in the Star Trek Legacy fanzine project. In 2000 she won two Philon Awards for Best Art and Best Poetry. She also runs the Moonridge Online Auction together with Alyjude.
In 2001, she gave an interview for part of the Sentinel Slash Virtual Season Five Senses. It can be found here.
In 2007, she was interviewed for the article Dribbling Scribbling Women: The History of Our Art. An excerpt:One of the magics of TV or movies is the ability to create characters that the watching audience feels that they know intimately, that they have feelings for. Nothing like imaginary sex between imaginary people to have fun and not get you into too much trouble. Talk about safe sex. The editors I sent my artwork out to seemed safe also. I seldom (almost never) met them face to face. The fact that Star Trek created a cult following proves that I wasn’t the only one who felt Kirk and Spock were real people in my emotional life that I loved. Being a girl, I don’t want just sex—I want love. I thought I saw enough love between Kirk and Spock that sex could flow there too... Thus my involvement in K/S. I enjoyed the challenge of trying to make pictures that could flow and add to the story. Editors became pen pals I never met.
