Wow I uh. I think I sorta suspected where it might go but I played through. It’s…real, it’s very real. Real enough to remind me of my early forays and how blisteringly much it hurt to feel, well, used. It took me a while to figure out I can’t do casual hookups and they always blew up into usually one-sided emotional involvement. To the point I sorta consider myself kinda aspec, I just can’t operate in that territory. 

I wish I’d been able to put myself back together the way Dear Deer did, if he is back together that is. 

And I mean this is all aside from it generally being adorable and well put together. It’s just, yow, a megaphone of emotions.

Thank you so much!

Bear Care is a work of fiction, but the emotions within it are very much based on my own early experiences with queer dating.

People kept asking me for a sequel to Yoga Bear. I told them I didn't want to write one. It's a fairy tale, I thought. You're not supposed to find out what happens after the lovers ride off to the sunset together.

But then I thought about it some more. What if it wasn't a fairy tale?

The truth is that I haven't read very many MLM stories that resonate with me on a personal level. Most of them either straight up ignore or eagerly embrace the gay hookup culture, and while there's absolutely nothing wrong with either approach, they are not something I can relate to.

So I decided to write something I could relate to. I wrote Bear Care.
