Back

@jillminor for a time in the 90s, I considered him a friend. I was a naive goth chick who managed a comics shop and looked like Death. He corresponded with me through email and referenced me on his blog. He sent me the things that were too racy for his website (like the Tijuana Bibles) to share instead on mine.

He stopped writing to me around the time he got involved with Amanda. I used to be sad I'd never met him. Now I see how I dodged a bullet.

He was one of my favourite writers and narrators, and now I feel filthy when I hear his voice and squicked when I think of his books.

Alice Munro was another of my favourite writers, and I feel betrayed when I think about her wrongs, too.
