Natives

Dozens of pairs of eyes peered through the thick vegetation. He couldn’t see them, but he knew they were there. They were always there, one step ahead. No matter what the military did, no matter how secretive their plans, no matter how sophisticated their maneuvers, no matter how hard they fought, the natives were always there. Always there with their guerilla warfare in the form of machetes and arrows and bombs made with all-natural ingredients. Always watching, always ready. He glanced away from the bushes at the edge of the clearing and tried to focus on the plan his commanding officer was outlining to his squad. But just as in r

Matchbooks and Ashes

A spark burst to life on the end of a short stick not yet torn from its cheap matchbook. Within seconds it had grown into a proper flame, enough to light a cigarette, enough to burn a letter, enough to ruin lives. One life had already been ruined by a flame like the one now flickering in the shifting air currents, at once the same and yet so different. For just as a rose by any other name is still a rose, so a flame by any other name is still a flame, by any other description will still burn and scar and destroy. It does not matter whether the flame is literal or symbolic; it does not matter that it can melt skin and char bone or melt hearts

A Slow Burn

It is dark here, and cold. So cold that it feels like I’m burning from the freeze. Fire and ice coexisting together so peacefully, so intent on destroying me through ice and flame that they have not the time to spare to quarrel with one another. There is wind as well, always wind, and it cuts right through my tattered clothing and then my skin like a sharpened blade until it is embedded in bone. Then it sucks the heat from my marrow until all that I am is cold, so cold that I feel like I’m burning. I’m always burning; shouldn’t I have burned up by now? I’ve been burning in this cold wind for ages

Character Profile: Sean Ferguson

Character Profile: Story the character is from: “Bound by Blood” Character's role in the story: He is one of the two main protagonists. • Basic information: Full name: Sean Ferguson Why this name?: He is of pure Irish heritage; before he was orphaned, he was a member of the Irish Travelers. His father’s family were Ulster Scots, hence the name Ferguson. I like the way it rolls off my tongue. As for the first name, Sean is the anglicization of the Gaelic Seán which comes from the Hebrew Yochanan (John) which means "God is gracious." He may not believe it yet, but he and his twin brother Kie

My Bio

A few things you should know before you go any further on this page:

This is a hate-free zone. That means no flaming or trolling or nastiness of any kind by anyone will be tolerated here. If you do so, I will remove/hide whatever insulting thing you felt it was absolutely necessary to say, but I won't retaliate. If nothing else, perhaps you will learn a lesson in maturity. That said, you will find a lot of things here that have the potential to offend sensitive, prude, ignorant, or narrow-minded people:

I'm talking about male/male art and literature.

I like men, and I especially like it when those men like other men. Twice the manly man-ness, or even three or four times...it's a win-win. ;) On a more serious note, the male form is beautiful and underappreciated, and the love between two men is every bit as beautiful as the love between a man and a woman and deserves equal exposure and recognition. (I know the love between two women is just as beautiful, it's just not my thing.)

So if you start searching through my gallery, my faves, and my groups, you will find an abundance of beautiful, sexy men doing wonderful things. Which means, I suppose, that this page should have a filter, or at the very least, an age limit. If you're young and impressionable, run away now. If not, then come right on in.

You've been warned. If the subject matter makes you uncomfortable, then please excuse yourself without comment. I'll respect your right to like whatever art you want as long as you'll do the same for me. Freedom of expression...don't abuse it.

This means that I am a supporter of equal rights. We are all human - straight, gay, or anywhere in between - and everyone deserves equal rights. Sexual orientation doesn't make us different any more than skin color, race, religion, or any of those other things that people aren't supposed to discriminate about. Who someone loves or is attracted to romantically or sexually is nobody's business but theirs. We aren't gods. None of us has the right to judge anybody.

Anybody else interested in equal rights around the world for everyone regardless of sexual orientation, please visit AllOut.org. It is a fantastic site and a great resource.

A few other interesting tidbits about me:

Urban fantasy is the genre that I am currently the most comfortable and happy writing. It is so deliciously fun to write, being so potentially dark and snarky and twisted, and I get to use all of my favorite fantasy creatures without feeling obligated to use a medieval setting. Big cities can be dangerous too.

I also love mythology, folklore, urban legends, ghost stories, and the like...please feel free to share if you know any good ones!

I am a life-long, unapologetic night owl. I don't like mornings, and they don't like me. It's a mutual understanding. I keep long, odd hours. It's so much easier to write when there is no one awake to bother me. Just me and all my sexy boys. ;) Carpe Noctem!

My First Published Story!

Hello lovelies! I know it has been quite a long time since I last posted (embarrassingly so) but I come bearing gifts: Prancer and Gruff is available as a free read! Cover: dantheanimal (https://www.deviantart.com/dantheanimal) (photographer) and AdrienneWilder (https://www.deviantart.com/adriennewilder) (designer) Prancer and Gruff is my contribution to Love’s Landscapes, the Goodreads MM Romance group’s “Don’t Read in the Closet” event for this year. It is a novella-length free read about a lonely cowboy and his lively housekeeper. It’s a sweet romance (no sex, just so you all know that going into it) with what I’m calling a HFN. I call it HFN instead of HEA because thi

Super Exciting News!

0 min read

Hello, my lovelies. It's been a while...how have all of you been? Before I get a bunch of messages asking what happened to the "Black and White" fairy tale, allow me to explain. Over a month ago, an editor that I follow on Facebook put out a call for submissions for an anthology she is revamping. It is called BEDKNOBS AND BEANSTALKS and is an anthology of gay fairy tales. I was so excited because that is a perfect fit for my little story (at least in my own opinion, lol). So I have been working very hard to improve and expand the story. It is now more than twice as long as the original, several scenes have been tweaked, and some new scene

Hello, lovelies. :blackrose: I hope this journal finds you all well and happy. I apologize for being such a ghost around these parts lately, but there are only so many hours in the day, you know. Everyone, even immortals, must obey the laws of time. ;) But I am here now and it is my pleasure to share with you some gorgeous new artwork I have received of the characters from Bound by Blood. :bigthumb356129242: By Piku-chwan (https://www.deviantart.com/piku-chwan) My two lovebirds Kieran and Dagmar sharing a tender moment.
