Notes
Per the author on Facebook: "... the plot of my 2001 Star Trek Novel, "Do Comets Dream?" which is itself vaguely adapted from a tale told in my Inquestor series, "The Comet That Cried for Its Mother", originally published in AMAZING.
I went in to the ST:TNG offices to pitch to them in the 1990s and I pitched this story. They looked at me and said, "Your idea is good, Somtow, but it's simply too imaginative for us."
No hard feelings. Instead, I pitched it to John Ordover at S&S, and they bought my story as a Star Trek novel instead."
