The loss of Minotaurs

[tenaya]

It's been a couple of days now since he's passed on and it's still a shock. I only knew him casually from the Slashbasher meetings and from his fun panels at the conventions and yet feel his loss acutely. He was vivacious, confident, always a lot of fun and perhaps the most pertinent thing from a fannish pov was that he was incredibly giving. He shared so much with us from his unique knowledge of how things really worked, to cluing us in on movies and tv shows that were worth watching--not to mention who was incredibly hot! In a culture that is based upon and depends upon sharing, his generosity was outstanding. He leaves a gaping hole in our community. I can't imagine how his family and close friends must be coping.

I once emailed him to ask him a logistical question about m/m sex, and he was most helpful and gracious in his answer.

He seemed to have time for everybody and was completely non-judgmental.

I didn't know him well but I will say his website was one of my first introductions to how gay sex really worked and he was very friendly and funny when I did meet him at Escapade 2 years ago. I also can't imagine how his friends and family are doing. :(
