I know that many people on both sides of this issue wanted me to take an early and decisive stand, but I couldn’t. I had friends on both sides, which made it incredibly difficult for me to sort out my own genuine feelings from the feelings of the people that I cared about. On the one side was a magazine that I loved and which had done incredible things for my career, headed by an editor who had never been anything but kind and supportive to me. On the other side were friends who asked to have their stories removed from the Helix archives and were subjected to extremely unprofessional treatment in response by that same editor.
