SHareCon 2016 Zine

368

Every other year we hold a fan-run Starsky and Hutch slash con, called SHareCon. In the tradition of SHareCons held before ours, we put out a small free zine for every con. Contributors are either attending or supporting members of the con. As we do with most zines, we will present the stories and art as they appeared in the zine.

The Table of Contents links to stories and art by individual contributors.

Note from the Editor

This year’s cover takes us back to the very beginning and the zine is a lovely celebration of Starsky & Hutch, their love for each other, and our love for them.

Once again I had the honor of editing the zine and I’m grateful to everyone who sent us such lovely stories, art, puzzles, poems, trivia, and essays. I’m especially thankful for how easy you all were to work with, everyone was responsive and flexible and that made my job so much easier.

Every piece in the zine includes the creator’s email address at the end. Please think about sending them feedback on their creations; even a short note means a lot.

Enjoy the zine, enjoy the con, and thanks for being part of the party.    -Cyanne

 

Note from the Publisher

Until you have created a zine, you cannot know how much work is involved. Cyanne took on the SHareCon zines years ago—I don’t even remember when!—and has done an amazing job over the years on a tight schedule while also maintaining the con’s website, the SH archive, creating surveys, and god-knows-what-else I think up for her to do at the last minute. Her zines have always been beautifully put together and well balanced, interesting, and fun books. Any writer or artist lucky enough to be featured in them has had their work treated with respect and care.

I cannot express enough gratitude to this woman who continues to work with me on cons, archives, advent and solstice calendars, websites, and of course, zines. She is a treasure, a creative artist, and I count her as one of my dearest friends. If you see me doing something creative on line, trust me, Cyanne is the wizard behind the curtains. I love you, my sister. You’re the best.

To all the contributors, thank you for your gifts! To all you readers, enjoy the zine, and share your enjoyment with others! Feedback is always appreciated. To all the attending and supporting members of SHareCon and contributors to the zine, thank you for your continuing support. We couldn’t have a con, or a zine, without you!    -Flamingo
