Author's Comments
It can be incredibly annoying to try to write stories that are supposed to be happening at the same time and to get all the events to sync up. I already did this once in this run with All Ahead Full and the Star Traks: The Vexed Generation story Station Keeping. I complained about it then, yet here I am doing it again with Lockdown and "Town Hall". I must be some kind of literary masochist.
Coming into this story, I knew I needed to do something with Colonel Martin Lazlo. He and the marines in general had been fairly well ignored since the first story of the previous run. I wanted to give him some time in the spotlight, which meant I needed to get him away from the other main characters. Oh wait. I just locked all of the other main characters in Ops. How convenient!
Richard Theroll has appeared before way back in "Waiting for the Other Shoe..." At the time I wrote that story I was thinking about changing the focus of the series to treat Waystation more like a town than a Starfleet facility. The Ops crew would still be involved, but I had visions of something along the lines of a Trek version of Twin Peaks with a lot more stories dealing with civilian life. Obviously that didn't happen, and Theroll was shoved so far into the background that he wasn't heard from again until I realized he'd be perfect for "Town Hall."
