About Me

The Anthology from Dreamspinner Press which includes my short story, "Deacon Decides", MR RIGHT NOW:MY ANTHOLOGY FROM DREAMSPINNER PRESS. SEX AND GAY LOVIN' THRIVES WITHIN ITS PAGES ;-)-------------------NOW AVAILABLE from AMAZON, iUNIVERSE, or wherever books are sold:SUBSURDITY: VIGNETTES FROM JASPER LANEGay porn parties, sexually confused animals, and dead bodies... Jasper Lane may not be perfect, but it sure is fun!-------Amos Lassen of Literary Pride says "This is the prefect summer read—it’s light, it’s fun and it will keep you reading. In fact, I have not had this much fun in a long time."Cover art by HvHCover Photo: Amy Arvin; Cover Design: Andrew Barriger. Editors: Miranda Maxwell & Andrew Barriger.A coming of age story with a supernatural bent, The Rest is Illusion is set on the campus of Verona College, a small liberal arts school that overlooks a river valley. The story centers on five students at critical points in their lives. Sarah, a young woman at odds with everything her parents stand for; Ash, a mysterious genius; Dashel, a young man with a strange illness; Tony, a closeted football star; and Wilder, a manipulative hopeful politician. Personal problems are further complicated by an unseen force that surrounds the college, living deep in the woods. As this entity begins to more fully touch the lives of the characters, things begin to unravel. For some this is a needed change, but for others this is a catalyst to a terrifying end."A carefully orchestrated ballet of literary decadence and narrative restraint." - Vince Liaguno, Author of The Literary Six ************************************************************ * "A beautiful swan dive into the pool of literature." - Amos Lassen, Literary Pride. ***************************** "...truly a remarkable accomplishment. I have never read anything quite like it." - Jak Klinikowski, Ourbookshelf.
