The Author Comments

I really liked writing this. First person usually doesn’t work very well for me, but I think it did here.

A big chunk of this story was written by my subconscious. I had to be up all night, manning the radio from my home, which was the central communications for a company that did snow plowing. So, while I was monitoring communications, I was writing this story. It was one where I was pretty sure about what I wanted to do before I started writing. Still, I felt disconnected from it for a long time and wasn’t sure it worked.

Eventually, I came to believe it worked very well. I think it was the standout story in the zine. [1]

Reactions and Reviews

I love a good 'Starsky and Hutch go to visit Hutch's family and come out' story.

But this story is more than just a coming out story, it shows Hutch's family dynamics (it ain't good) and why Hutch needs Starsky so much in his life to love him, comfort him and be his partner.

I love a good psychological and angsty drama and this has all of that plus Starsky and Hutch coming to terms with how their relationship is changing -- for the better -- when they finally admit they are in love with one another.. [2]
