From the Editorial by Elaine
My contribution to this effort has been relatively small, with Lucy doing almost all thew ork. It was her idea to do it, her inspiration and determination that found the stories and the artwork, and her energy that created it and then brought it through the birth process. Me? I just edited everything she sent me and provided unlimited encouragement. Lucy deserves all the kudos, including many tons from me.
I think we have some wonderful stories in this issue, and I hope you'll enjoy them, too. In our zine published last year ("Don't Give Up On Us, Baby"), we featured first-time stories; this time, we wanted to highlight established-relationship stories. I think we got some good ones! Thanks to all the writers who submitted stories. And thanks, also, to all our wonderful artists.
I believe that as long as there are fans, there will always be zines. There is something very tactile about holding one in your hands that cannot be duplicated by downloading fiction off the 'Net. The 'words' might be the same, but there's no comparison. A finished zine, all beautifully bound and with a gorgeous color cover, is (and always will be) something special.
From the Editorial by Lucy
There are always so many people to thank when doing a zine. The artists, for giving and giving again, and the authors, who were so incredibly pro-active. They were among the most wonderful, especially during the editing process in terms o f co-operation and in getting things back in view ofthe time constraints. I am forever so grateful.
I am also blown away by the fans Starsky and Hutch continue to have after all these years. They are loyal and loving not only to the characters but to those, like myself, who believe the fiction in this genre fills a gap. I treasure the friends I have made here.
The zine you hold in your hand would be empty air were it not for Flamingo and her jump start for this author, and Elaine, without whom I am impotent. I thank her for her hard work. (No one will ever know.) And for her tireless patience. (Although she did threaten a come-to-Jesus meeting about punctuation and run-on sentences.) I'm hoping if I ignore it for a time, she'll forget.

Suzan Lovett, for "Tell Me Nine Truths". It shows Starsky and Hutch naked (lower part) and in profile (upper part). The character in the upper left hand corner is the original character, Steve Bussell, in the story, which in turn appears to be a fan casted Roger Lococco from Wiseguy
