We would like to reiterate that this fanzine is written and produced by fans, and not professional writers. Some of us have the hope of being writers someday, some of us want to go into printing, and some of us just wanted to work on a fanzine project for the fun of it. We thank those who are responsible for the characters & concepts of this fanzine: the creator of Star Trek-Gene Roddenberry and all the talented authors who have written ST episodes, as well as novels. Their ideas prompted us to write new stories. Although Genesis is our first endeavour [sic], it undoubtably [sic] will be followed up if you tell us you like our style. It will be easy for you to let us know your feelings. All you have to do is send your comments and criticisms to: Lt. Cmdr. Bob Vosseller...

This is, of course, unthinkable since there is so much in the world of Star Trek for Paramount to expand upon. Who can say what the future will bring, but we do have control over our own destinies, & the things we care most about. In order to insure the continued production of ST films, or perhaps even another tv series, we must engage in certain activities (letter campaigns, magazine ads, etc), to guarantee (hopefully) its return.")
