This issue we salute Valentine's Day with an issue dedicated to the great and glorious concept of romance, but as usual, we do our best to add just a bit of a twist. For example, Eric "Oren" Vary's OTTER'S PONDerings provides advice to the furry lovelorn, while, in his story The Lady's Choice, Andy Hollis notes that fur is not an obstacle to love, and my story Daughter to Demons asks the question, "Do demons need love?" By the way folks, we love comments and suggestions. Please drop by our Reader's Forum and leave us a note.

Also in this issue we offer a new survey and an analysis of the last survey. The new question is "What is your favorite transformation-related web site?" This one's an open-ended survey so you'll need to write in the name and the link. We'll update the results weekly until the end of February, so get your answers in soon.
