I am an AIDS activist, a poet, a translator, a writer, a filmmaker raté and an average gay man in his late 40s.In February, 2005, I started blogging at 2sides2ron . In June, 2006, I added the International Carnival of Pozitivities, a forum for people living with HIV/AIDS around the world to my list of blogs.
