I’ve gotten all sorts of reactions to SMIRK, which is not surprising. It’s a polarizing topic, and I’m approaching it in a polarizing fashion.

One question that comes up a lot is why I decided to tell the story from the standpoint of having a “prison romance” with Martin. (Even though we are now just friends.)

It’s something that I’ve put a lot of thought into, actually. Here I explain my reasons.
