Wil Wheaton writes memoir and essays about acting, geek culture, mental health and the complicated afterlife of childhood fame. Just a Geek collects writing from the years after Star Trek: The Next Generation, when Wheaton was trying to build a different career and identity beyond Wesley Crusher. Still Just a Geek revisits that material with later annotations, corrections and reflections on how his understanding of work, family and mental health changed.
