Bio
From Carter in 1996:
... I find to my amazement that I’ve been hooked [on K/S and Star Trek] since 1978.
Companion was the first slash zine I ever saw; I don’t recall where I heard about it, but I know that I ordered it soon after it was published. I even remember what I was doing the day it arrived in the mail, and I’ll bet I read parts of it about a hundred times. Then, believe it or not, there came a day when I actually threw the zine away, for the simple reason that I was scared to death someone else would see it. Fortunately I got over that. The K/S relationship was just so compelling that I had to have more and more and more.
With that as a preface, I have to admit that in some ways this is a difficult letter for me to write. Except for the correspondence necessary for ordering or inquiring about orders for zines, K/S has always been for me an intensely private obsession. Over the years I wrote one or possibly two LOC’s; I never subscribed to a letterzine. Despite forming definite opinions about everything I read, I never really wondered what anyone else thought. Now that I have started to write K/S and know how great it is to get feedback, I realize that there are many authors and artists to whom I should have expressed my appreciation - and probably would have had I not been just plain too shy to do it.
