About

From a German zine review site: "Kommentar: Story-Sammelbände, verschiedene Autoren. In den Bänden 1 und 2 kann man die slashigen Szenen mit der Lupe suchen. Ab Band 3 wird es dann expliziter. Es gibt sehr gute Stories, aber wie wohl überall auch einige weniger Gelungene. Generell handelt es sich aber wohl um das Anspruchsvollste in Sachen K/S auf dem dt. Markt sowohl was den Inhalt wie auch die Gestaltung angeht. Zum Inhalt zählen auch Gedichte und Zeichnungen."[1]

Rough translation: "The zines contain story anthologies with various authors. In Volumes 1 and 2, you may need a magnifying glass to find slashy scenes. Starting with Volume 3, the stories are more explicit. There are very good stories, but like most everywhere, some are less successful. But it is probably the most demanding in terms of K/S on the German market, both in terms of content and design. Contents include poems and drawings."

A Fan Remembers

... our German Star Trek club published a German K/S zine BEGEGNUNGEN ("MEETINGS") and I wrote some stories and poems and illustrated the zine together with other artists. It was a pretty well-behaved zine, because we used no pen names and Germany is a big village..., but it was a nice one. I wrote also an article for out general club zine to introduce K/S to the other fans. It was a great success! Sometime later the club published a second issue of that K/S zine and the fans liked it, too.
