It was published in the print zine Matter/Antimatter #6.

Summary

"Kirk needs to lose weight and Spock has an unusual solution."

Reactions and Reviews

LESS IS MORE is a delightful piece of froth about Kirk's need to lose weight and Spock's unusual solution. The author's (irreverent) tongue-in-cheek approach to an unpleasant (for Kirk at least) state of affairs is refreshing. As with Ms. Starr's other efforts, this vignette is tightly written and well polished. [1]

Jenny Starr's "Less is More' is a vignette of pure dialogue where Spock tries to discuss a new diet for Kirk, as the captain is still fighting a persistent weight problem. I usually enjoy this author's stories, but this piece was rather dry and needed a better punch line. [2]
