The latest issue of Star Trek Magazine, just out in the US and the UK, features an exclusive interview with former Star Trek producer Rick Berman, in which he revealed he is writing a book about his experiences producing Star Trek The Next Generation, Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Star Trek Voyager and Star Trek Enterprise during 18 years. The interview was conducted last December, shortly before he left his offices on the Paramount lot after 22 years with the studio.
"I have started writing a book because I realized that in 1986, when Gene Roddenberry asked me to get involved in work with him on this thing, the number of stories that I have accumulated is amazing." he said.
Berman also said that the untitled book does not yet have a publisher and will be ‘"warts and all" type of book, and the focus will be on all the ‘wonderful and bizarre and funny things' that happened during his association with the Star Trek franchise. And he is also seeking former colleagues to help him recall certain events.
Asked about his other projects, Berman said "There are two projects that are possibly in the works here at Paramount and two that are not connected to the television business, but time will tell."
