This story is a masterpiece!You have plucked these characters off a television screen, out of fiction, and made of them living breathing people. Their pain becomes my pain, their tears--both shed and unshed--become my tears.
Bitter Glass touched me in so many places.
Thank you writing this superbly crafted story and for letting me see inside the hearts and minds of two men I love.

Author's Response:

Thank you, hon. Long ago, your response to this story meant the world to me, and that's still true.

Just add me to the list of those who love this story. It's amazing that the reader is so aware of the love between Kirk and Spock when we don't hear them say one word to each other. One of the true classic stories in K/S fandom.

Author's Response:

Thanks so much for the feedback.  :-)  I realized early on that to be true to the POV I'd chosen for the story, the only dialogue could be between the main character and Kirk or Spock, but that we couldn't "hear" any private conversations between the two of them.

I think you already know how I feel about this story. Everything about it speaks of a writer who is firmly in contol of her material and her craft. Superbly written, wonderfully paced and touching as hell.
