Dark Passions Susan Wright Book 1 - January 2001 (232pp) Book 2 - January 2001 (200pp) Before Kira and Bashir stumbled upon the mirror universe, there was plenty of intrigue going on. Agent Annika Hansen of the Obsidian Order has been ordered to to eliminate the new Overseer of the Alliance, Kira. Even assassins don't appear immune to her considerable wiles, however. Familiar characters play evil and manipulative to the hilt. When Kira obtains an Iconian transportal device, no one is safe from her wrath. Susan [Wright] said, “I'm fascinated with parallel universes. ‘Mirror, Mirror’ was my favorite TOS episode, and I enjoyed the DS9 mirror universe episodes. So when my editor at Pocket Books, John Ordover, said he wanted me to write a ‘bad girls’ of Trek, I was up for it. I created the story for one book, and afterwards it was expanded to two books. I made Seven of Nine and Intendent [sic] Kira the two main characters, and put them into a relationship. I thought it was great that Paramount allowed the interaction. I loved writing characters that were familiar yet fundamentally different. For example, Seven was trained as a Cardassian assassin since there is no Borg in the mirror universe.”

From “Voyages of Imagination: The Star Trek Fiction Companion” by Jeff Ayers (2006)

Susan Wright was born on the 24th of April, 1976, in Houston, Texas. She briefly worked as a topless dancer before finding employment as a restaurant waitress in Galveston. It was here that she met her future husband, Jeff Wright. The couple eventually welcomed two children into their lives.

However, the tranquility of their relationship would soon shatter on the evening of January 13, 2000. What Jeff anticipated to be an ordinary night took a harrowing turn when Susan bound him to their bed. Immobilized and defenseless, he became the victim of a relentless onslaught.

Susan stabbed him a staggering 193 times, using two different knives. Once the gruesome act was complete, she buried Jeff's lifeless body in their backyard. Ironically, the hole he had previously dug in the patio, intended for a fish pond, served as his final resting place.

The following day, Susan proceeded to file a domestic abuse report, aiming to obtain a restraining order against her now-deceased husband. Upon returning home, she embarked on an effort to conceal the ghastly crime by painting the entire bedroom. Days later, Susan summoned her attorney, Neal Davis, to her residence and confessed to the murder.

The grim discovery of Jeff's partially unearthed corpse, with ties fastened around his wrists and red wax adorning his body, added another layer of macabre details to the case. The intensity of Susan's stabbings was so severe that the tip of the blade was found lodged in Jeff's skull.

During the trial, Susan pleaded not guilty by reason of self-defense. Her defense attorney asserted that she had endured years of physical and mental abuse at the hands of her husband, ultimately resorting to killing him in an act of self-preservation for herself and their children.

Susan claimed that she had not tied Jeff to the bed but had been present in the bedroom when he confronted her with a knife. In a startling display of strength, she alleged that, despite the significant physical disadvantage of being 5'5" compared to Jeff's 6'3" and 220lbs, she managed to overpower him, seize the knife, and deliver over 100 stab wounds.

The prosecution, however, painted a contrasting picture, portraying Susan as a conniving spouse who orchestrated her husband's demise in pursuit of a $200,000 life insurance policy. Testimony from a friend of Jeff revealed that Susan had berated him over incorrectly filling out the insurance forms, causing delays in the process.

The prosecution acknowledged that Jeff had his flaws, including struggles with substance abuse, but vehemently denied he was abusive toward Susan or their children. They argued that Susan's allegations of abuse only emerged after she had already taken his life, emphasizing that the domestic abuse report was filed a day after the murder.

In the end, the jury aligned with the prosecution's narrative, rejecting Susan's claims of self-defense. She was subsequently sentenced to 25 years in prison, which was later commuted to 20 years.

look people who've been around here for a while know exactly how i feel about the early doctor who serial edge of destruction but i rewatched it recently and i have feelings

so edge of destruction is the third ever serial of doctor who, right? it's an unearthly child, the daleks, then edge of destruction. and it's also kind of a bottle episode. edge of destruction is a two-parter, and is set entirely on the tardis featuring only the main cast

the plot is weird. everyone wakes up in the tardis with confusion and memory loss, not knowing what's going on. the tardis isn't safe, and strange things are happening. the ship seems to be malfunctioning, but there's nothing notably wrong with it. everyone's freaking out and accusing each other of sabotaging the tardis or hurting each other

now, as i said, this is early doctor who. companions barbara and ian had been kidnapped by the doctor and susan so they don't tell anyone that time travel is real, and at this point they don't trust the doctor and the doctor doesn't trust them. the doctor immediately starts accusing barbara and ian of sabotaging the ship to force him to take them home, which they angrily refute. they've spent the last two stories saving the doctor and susan from whatever's trying to kill them

barbara has a speech here which is brilliant and i can quote verbatim. 'do you realise, you stupid old man, that you'd have died in the cave of skulls if ian hadn't made fire for you? and what about what we went through against the daleks? not just for us, but for you and susan too. and all because you tricked us into going down to the city. accuse us? you ought to go down on your hands and knees and thank us! but gratitude's the last thing you'll ever have, or any sort of common sense either'

and the doctor spends the whole two episodes either accusing ian and barbara of being evil or being wholly unhelpful. (he straight up drugs everyone with a sedative at one point!) yeah, turns out the tardis is trying to tell them what's wrong via cryptic clues, and barbara's putting the pieces together. and the doctor still doesn't listen to her! she's so close to figuring it out and saving them all - they're all gonna die in about ten minutes and the doctor's basically given up, but barbara's trying to solve the problem

and in the end, they have the eureka moment and get out of trouble, but barbara's still understandably pissed. that is, until the doctor takes the time to apologise to her and tell her that yeah, she was right and he's sorry he didn't listen to her and he's going to do better to respect her opinions in future. they go into the next serial as friends, a first for the series to that point

so why do i love this weird little two-parter so much? because it is the moral centre of modern doctor who. this is the start of the characterisation of the doctor that we know and love. before this, the doctor is ruthless! he tries to kill a guy with a rock! he sabotages the tardis to satisfy his curiosity and lands everyone in danger from the daleks! he drugs them just because he doesn't trust them! he thinks he's smarter, better, and more important than the people he travels with

but then barbara stands up to him. she tells him that, no, she and ian are important too. and no, they're worth listening to. and yes, they can help and are worth something. and that's important, because barbara and ian are way more compassionate than the doctor is at this point. they want to help people they come across even if it means putting their own lives in danger.

sound familiar? yeah, the doctor's whole thing of helping everyone they come across and compassion towards everyone starts here. this is one of the most enduring things about the doctor and it would never have happened without barbara telling the doctor he's full of shit

and it's all because he listened to an ordinary woman

Last night I finally finished all the Classic Companions in my Doctor Who series. Decided to put them all together to see how they looked, and I rather like it! A future poster, maybe?

(Before anyone asks about Liz, she's on the as-yet-unfinished UNIT poster. I haven't forgotten her. Please, I've had so many people ask me about Liz)

The Best and the Brightest (Star Trek: The Next Generation) Susan Wright February 1998 (277pp) The story of six cadets attending Starfleet Academy and their trials and tribulations during their four-year term. Set during the time period just after the events of Wolf 359, the characters include a newly joined Trill; a human who finds herself hopelessly in love with the Trill; a cat-like alien raised by humans, and a Bajoran Vedek who wishes to distance himself from his native planet. This novel was groundbreaking, not only in terms of having brand new characters. Susan [Wright] said, “I always wanted to create a gay relationship in a Trek novel because I felt that the promise of a future without discrimination and bigotry had not been fulfilled. So when John Ordover asked me to create a whole new cast of characters who were attending Starfleet Academy, I wanted to include gay characters. The Best and the Brightest was the first Star Trek novel with main characters who were gay. Paramount agreed to my story proposal, but they insisted that the word “gay” should not be included. They said that in the Trek universe sexual orientation was not even noticed. I've always wanted to bring these characters back in a DS9 novel, because Moll Enor and Jayme Miranda were posted there at the end of The Best and the Brightest. It was fun because at times I used all six of the characters like Forest [sic] Gump, placing them in key Trek moments such as the crash of the Enterprise-D.”

From “Voyages of Imagination: The Star Trek Fiction Companion” by Jeff Ayers (2006)
