PS to Sarah Anderson … yes, when Amazon’s “glitch” happened, False Colors was #1 and Transgressions was #2.. and they were deranked a day before the others, which is one reason some of us smell a censorious rat.

“Slash” stands for the / between the two protagonists’ names.

It started out when somebody or other wrote a story where Kirk and Spock were caught all alone on a planet and *gasp* wouldn’cha know it, Spock goes into Pon Farr and what’s a Captain to do….

The ordinary, just-good-friends stories were Kirk-Spock (or Kirk-Spock-McCoy, whatever). The sexy ones had to have some other notation, so… Kirk/Spock, Starsky/Hutch, Chapel/Uhura, you name it — “slash” fiction was born.

These stories became popular amazingly fast, and for about 20 years fan writers were slashing any two characters who even liked each other, and many who didn’t. I’m not even going to start on the Blake’s 7 daisychain.

And yes, Alex’s writing is WONDERFUL – her first book, Captain’s Surrender, won Linden Bay’s new author competition against a field of m/f romances. The second book in Running Press’s new line is Transgressions, by Erastes — also a stunning writer. These are good historicals, not just good romance or good m/m.
