===================
M1ke Hunt - that's a one (1) in M1ke, not an I. If you need a laugh
with your erotica, he's your man.
I conducted an extensive Google Search with regard to M1ke - I wanted
to know why he disappeared. I asked others on ASSD that question,
fearing that his last story was in some way autobiographical. I'm told
that it wasn't.

The Night Before Christmas - M1ke's last published story
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The really big question is,
"Has anybody seen M1ke Hunt?"
In September of 1998, Baird Allen asked in newsgroup alt.sex.stories.d,
"{ASSD} Anyone Know Status of M1ke Hunt?" He publicly observed that
M1ke didn't monitor the newsgroup, but just in case, could he drop him
a line?
Anne (anon747b) speculated that M1ke had gotten a second TOS violation
and lost his account at AOL.
On September 3rd, Baird said "I had a message from him today, on a
temporary account that he does not plan to keep for long. He is doing
fine, but is too busy to set up a new website right now."
On the 5th, Baird announced that with M1ke's permission, his web site
had been reproduced as a subdirectory of his own, the Bear's Den.
(Don't bother looking for it, it's gone too, or gone pay.) The title of
that thread was "{ASSD} M1ke Hunt's website moves to The Bear's Den".
Fast forward to February, 2000 and we find Uther Pendragon and John
Jameson discussing "Re: {ASSM} Mike Hunt - what happened to him?" John
says, "M1ke Hunt is still alive and apparently still with a functioning
sense of humor. I received a message from him after using him in a
cameo role in An Interview with Miss Behavin' -- complaining that he
would never be so absent-minded and just plain lame, he reposted the
relevant part, but added one word. His stories are still, for me, the
ultimate in erotic humor."
I asked the same question as late as February 2002 ({ASSD} What
happened to M1ke Hunt?). I was assured that M1ke was fine, enjoying the
status of infrequent lurker, and still considered one of (if not the)
funniest writers of humorous porn on the net. That's an assessment I
concur with.
With his apparent retirement from active writing or participation in
the ASSD newsgroup, M1ke was posted to the ASS Hall of Fame. No
nomination was more deserved. (Equally deserved, certainly, but none
more.)
Still, the question surfaces like clockwork, once or twice each year
(and for me, it's that time yet again!):
"Has anyone seen M1ke Hunt?"
