Andrew and Dominic – Our Story – Dominic Cooks for Me

  A few days after our first date, Dominic called to invite me to his apartment for a dinner party.  He wanted to reciprocate to the people who had had us over.  (The matchmakers)  I thought it wonderful.  I was asked to arrive early which I thought was sweet and we talked while he continued cooking.  The table was set beautifully for four in his small dining room.  And he nervously made sure everything was perfect. The other guests arrived and Dominic indicated that dinner was ready.  As soon as we sat down I knew I was in trouble.  The … Continued

The Story Behind Love Comes Home

Love Comes Home started when sports reporters were talking about baseball.  I rarely listen to baseball, but I was on an extended trip and had NPR on the car’s satellite radio.  Of course NPR has a sports reporter who was doing a color story around baseball.  But being NPR, he chose something different.  That was the day I heard about Beepball for the first time.  They were at a game and mostly it sounded like any other baseball game, coaches giving instruction, parents yelling encouragement.  Then it got silent and all that came through was a moving beeping sound.  As … Continued

Video Reading of Dumped in Oz

  I did a short video reading of an excerpt from Dumped in Oz.  I like doing readings of my work and since I can’t be there with you, I thought I would do a video reading instead.  The scene comes from the end of the first chapter of the story where Lyle and Roger first begin to notice one another.  I hope you like it.     Because of an opportunity he’d be a fool to turn down, Lyle Powers transfers to his company’s warehouse in central Kansas. The last thing he expects is to meet another gay man … Continued

I Spent Time In OZ

This past summer, I had to go on a business trip for the Evil Day Job I don’t have any longer.  I ended up in Kansas in June.  It was surprisingly green with rolling hills and river valleys.  Not the sort if place I expected to like, but it was quite lovely.   The trip required that I spend the weekend.  On Saturday I worked most of the day and on Sunday we needed something to do and on the freeway, we’d seen a sign for the Oz Winery in Wamego.  We had to see what that was all about and … Continued
