I was speaking last week of my favorite gags.  These were concepts, notions, dialogue, or whatever that I came up with which, for whatever reasons, were overruled and tossed.

Favorite Lost Star Trek Subplot: I do a series called New Frontier for Pocket Books.  We launched it last summer, and Paramount let the first four books sail through with virtually no changes.  The books did very well.  Naturally, that meant that when books #5 and #6 showed up, it was time to start gutting stuff.
