From the Editorial
A BRIEF NOTE OF EXPLANATION: Last time we did "The Best Little K/MAS Zine in Texas." This year, somebody said, "Hey, how about let's do a zine full of valentine stories and give them to all our friends for Valentine's Day. Sounded like a good idea at the time, and you hold in your hands the results. You will probably notice as soon as you start reading the following stories that our interests have become somewhat diversified. This time, you'll have more than just Kirk and Spock to contend with. Hope you can handle it. HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY...

Reactions and Reviews
[from the author of "Cliffs of Fall]: ... I nominate it as my "least liked", since it was written especially for a group Valentine's Day zine, had to include a valentine, and ... shudder ... got out on the circuit in first draft, minus the last paragraph. That was "Cliffs of Fall", and I think I would like it more if I had gotten the chance to rewrite it. In present form it has some nice moments, but some clunker cliches, and a possible inducement for insulin injections, i.e. a bit sweet. [1]
