When Le'matyas Sleep

When Le'matyas Sleep is a Star Trek: TOS anthology of fiction and art. 
The first issue was all het, and the second issue was het and slash.
==Issue 1==
When Le'matyas Sleep 1 contains 78 pages and was published in October 1985. It is a "Special Spock Issue!"
From the editorial: 
From some ads:
The publisher listed the following contributors: Jane Wray, Louise Pacheco, Twyla J. Peacock, Ann Zewen, M.C. Pehrson and more, and says, "An adult, erotic Trek zine featuring well-written, well-plotted stories plus poetry and art. No hard K/S; explicit sex but no age statement necessary... "
"Shore leave with humans is not Spock's idea of fun; Spock returns to Vulcan to take a wife; Spock & Chapel stranded on a hostile planet... plus poetry & art." from an ad in On the Double 
"I never thought I'd do it, folks, but here it is -- a zine devoted to the lucky women in Mr. Spock's life. Much as I usually dislike this type of Trek fiction, these four stories were just too good to reject! They did not fit the specifications of my other zines so I created a whole new zine for them. 75% Spock/Christine. Some sex and violence, but no age statement required." from Datazine #38 
Two of the stories in this first issue were originally going to be included in More Missions, More Myths #2, but were moved to this zine instead due to subject matter. From the editorial in "More Missions, More Myths" #2: 
 
* Are We Having Fun Yet? by Jane Wray "Shore leave for Spock with the Enterprise bridge crew turns into a Vulcan's nightmare. Rest and relaxation seem light-years away! Will these wild and crazy humans never understand that Vulcans do not find these forms of recreation enjoyable? And, will Christine Chapel take advantage of a highly explosive situation?") (3)
* Coimus (We Have Been United), poem by Twyla J. Peacock (17)
* illo by Teresa Court (18)
* A Time to Heal by Louise Pacheco ("Spock's loneliness is becoming too much for him to bear. But dare he take a human wife in deference to Vulcan tradition? Will it threaten the special bond between himself and Kirk? Painful emotions awaken to love in this in-depth look at the character of Spock.") (20)
* art by Carol A. Pierce (36)
* Pattern Trap, poem by Meg Fine (37)
* illo by W.L.R. (37)

The Enterprise, severely damaged by a Klingon warship, finally returns to the rescue. But the Spock they find is changed, almost wild. And Christine has become his lover. When they return to duty and their former lives, will their love be lost? Will Kirk disapprove of their unprofessional liaison?") (39)

==Reactions and Reviews: Issue 1==
==Issue 2==
 
When Le'matyas Sleep 2 was published in June 1988 and contains 169 pages.
The artwork by Sherry Veltkamp, Jacquelyn Zoost, Virginia Lee Smith, and Shellie Whild.
This second issue has, what the publisher describes as, "soft K/S" and "homosexual situations." From the editorial in More Missions, More Myths #9: "When Le'Matyas Sleep #2 is due in June and will be an adult erotic zine, not K/S though one story does have K/S overtones. I am very impressed with the stories I received. Excellent writing and plots, as well as a little sexual excitement make the stories really worth reading in my opinion."
The zine was solely edited and published by Wendy, with her noting in the credits: "No support whatsoever, Della and Alayne."
Note: listed on the flyer but was not in the zine itself: "The Devil's Own" by M.C. Pehrson (Spock, having discovered and dealt with his twin and Dorian Wren, begins to suffer from severe mental problems as a result.) 
* With Every Fondness, poem by Janis E. Laine (3)
* The Companion by Ann Zewen (Kirk and Uhura find themselves in an erotic situation after learning that the customs of a planet they are visiting involves aphrodisiacs and shared quarters...) (31)
* The Hardest Lesson, poem by Romilly Kerr (47)
* Twilight, poem by Twyla Peacock (49)
* A Work of Art, poem by L.P. Santos (75)
* Hell to Play by M.C. Pehrson ("soft K/S" -- Spock will die of pon farr unless Kirk does something about it. Problem: Spock refuses Kirk's offer of help because Kirk is male, therefore Kirk must find a way to become what Spock needs...) (81)
* Second Born by M.C. Pehrson (sequel to "Hell to Pay" -- a female scientist, Dorian Wren, makes a copy of Spock's transporter pattern and recreates him into a childlike twin for her own pleasure.) (102)
* Into the Shadows, poem by M.C. Pehrson (124)
* The Healer's Price by M.C. Pehrson ("homosexual situations" -- Because of the transporter incident in "Second Born," Spock becomes mentally ill. He now lives with a healer on Vulcan whose methods of dealing with Spock are rather controversial.) (147)
* Logic's Consequences, poem by Romilly Kerr (170)
