Welcome to my personal website...You can now enjoy the convenience of online shopping for GLBT books here, without ever leaving this website:

TGcoverNow Available! The Gathering (Common Threads in the Life, book 4) is available at Amazon well in advance of Christmas. I'll be looking forward to hearing from those of you who have been asking about The Gathering, for several years. And now you should know that I am working on the fifth book in this series, titled A Summer's Change. This should be the final novel in the series and should bring the Reece family into the present day. In the coming months, I plan to revisit Will Barnett in the Journals of Will Barnett series as well as the fantasy series, Twilight of the Gods.


Because I am a writer, most of what you will encounter here is my work. I mainly write fiction and fantasy and a little autobiography. But I have also written book reviews for Foreword Magazine (the print version) and articles on various issues. From 2003-2005, I maintained and edited the online book-review e-zine, The Independent Gay Writer. You can access it by clicking on "Newsletter" in the column to the left.

As a writer, I have come to understand much of the publishing industry in all its messy glory. I've met many writers since my first book was published in 1989, and many of them are aspiring writers, trying to get a handle on this miasmic publishing business. So from my perspective and experience, I've recognized the need for a little explication of that industry. You can click on "Archives" and other buttons on the left to read my articles on writing and publishing, meet new writers, access the growing list of writer resources I have found, and otherwise spend many hours on the hundreds of pages that exist on this website.

As a gay man, I have also included a few of my thoughts on the state of the country into which I was born as concerns "my people" if you will allow me that designation. These "rants" can be found in the archives, as well.
