1994
To all of you who, when I acted like a three-year old over Shelley’s magnificent "Change of Uniform" in the art show didn't bid so I could have it for the minimum price, and never even told me until later... Bless you!... [1]
1995
No one does blue jean and what's inside them quite like Shelley. I especially love the Spock. A friend and I spent some amount of time discussing whether Spock would cock his hip like that. She's a Trekker who loves the idea of K/S but isn't really a reader, and she laughs at us, that I would say I think Spock would not cock his hip like that, not under "normal" circumstances even considering K/S. She says with all the stuff we have them do, she can't believe I'd quibble over a point such as that. I understand this particular point of distinction very well, and I know you do too. But she thinks it's funny. I decided that he's in front of a mirror, trying out what he thinks Kirk might like, or maybe what he's observed Kirk doing, A drawing like this, besides being exquisite in its execution, is a pleasure because we get to imagine the circumstance surrounding it."

1996
See the look in his eyes. It’s as if he has made up his mind. It’s now or never. I only get one chance. [3]
