I think the title of the book you're looking for is "Star Trek 0: The Prequel",
by Alan Dean Foster. About 60% of the text was posted in net.bizarre shortly
before it died. 

PS. EVERYONE knows Robert Heinlein is really a pair of red-headed twins! Just
look at how many different ones appear in his SF...

:-), in case you haven't noticed.
