Jens Deffner


JENS DEFFNER was born 1979 in Germany. He was a casual Star Trek viewer since TNG began airing, but didn't become a dedicated fan until he began to read the novels in the late nineties. At first he only read the German translations, but when the number of translations declined he switched over to reading the original English novels, and he never regretted leaving the sometimes-sloppy translations behind. DS9 is his favourite Star Trek series, but he enjoys to read about any incarnation of the franchise. His flash fiction story God's Ways, co-written with Dayton Ward, can be found here.
