Christmas with Andrew

I write blog posts all the time and sometimes I forget to write on my own blog.  So I decided to write a post about Christmas with Andrew.  Dominic is amazing and he cooks all kinds of Christmas goodies including cookies and fruitcake.  He also does all the food for our huge holiday open house.  He is an amazing man and I’m lucky to have him in my life. My contribution to the festivities are the decorations.  I put up three trees, decorate the mantle, and the house.  I love lights and if Dominic would let me I swear I’d … Continued

Trapped In Oz – An Excerpt

Trapped in Oz is the final story in this novella series.  I have thought long and hard and in the future I plan to concentrate my writing efforts on the novel length work.  They give me more time and space to explore my characters and for you to fall in love with them.  So with the exception of holiday and daily dose titles, this is my last novella.  I really hope you enjoy it.  There are plenty of stories already in the works and I’m working on more!     Martin Long has plans and dreams, but they are derailed … Continued

Andrew and Dominic – Our Story – The First Thanksgiving

After the proposal, Dominic and I decided that we wanted our families to meet.  So we invited both sets of parents for Thanksgiving dinner.  Dominic was going to cook at his small house.  It was going to be just the six of us. Dominic spent hours getting the turkey ready and making a very traditional dinner.  It was lovely.  The one thing he hadn’t done up to that point was tell his parents about the engagement and what our plans were.  His plan had been to tell them when he saw them at Thanksgiving.  So like a good fiancé, when … Continued

Dirk Caber – On Being A Cover Model

Today we have a special guest on the blog.  Dirk Caber talks about being a cover model.  I for one am very grateful to him for agreeing to grace the cover of Upside Down.  He was easy to work with and I thoroughly enjoyed it.   My partner Jesse was so delighted to be approached to be the cover model for the first novel, Inside Out, and I know he was just thrilled when he found out Andrew was hoping I might be on the cover if Upside Down.  Me, I’m an artist by day anyway, a musician and actor, … Continued

Andrew and Dominic – Our Story – The Proposal

Dominic and I dated throughout the spring and summer.  I met his friends and he met mine.  In October it was a glorious day, warm for the month and we decided to take a walk.  Dominic had just bought a home on the south side of Milwaukee and I helped him with the improvements.  One of our favorite places to walk was Lake Park.  So we drove and parked at one and walked all the way through, over the bridges and along the rambling path.  Lake Park was designed by the same man who did Central Park in New York … Continued

Electrochemistry

With the release of Electrochemistry I thought I would give you all a brief excerpt from the story.  I love this opening because everyone should know or experience someone like Jordy.   Science major Brad Jergens notices Jordy Fleming at school and at the grocery store where he works, but with the heat Jordy’s boyfriend emits, Brad doesn’t think he stands a chance. When Brad’s parents drag him along on a cruise, he and Jordy literally crash into each other, and the chemistry between them sends sparks flying. Unfortunately, as the weeklong cruise nears an end too quickly, Brad’s left … Continued

Andrew and Dominic – Our Story – Meeting the Parents

I have to start by saying that I did not have much experience with serious boyfriends before meeting Dominic.  He and I met in February and I had agreed to take Dominic to his parents for Easter since he didn’t drive.  This was to be the first time meeting is very Catholic parents.  I will confess to being a little nervous. The drive from Milwaukee where he and I were living to Green Bay was a little nerve racking.  Dominic of course said all the usual things.  When we arrived, his mom and dad came out to greet us and they … Continued

Andrew and Dominic – Our Story – When I Knew I Was in Love

After Dominic and I spent out first night together, I had to leave on a business trip.  The following morning, I packed and got on a plane to Mexico City.  It was a very busy week.  At the time I was working for a retailer and we were opening a store in the central city.  By the time I got on the plane for the return trip, I was so happy to be coming home, I can’t describe it.  Dominic and I had a date night scheduled for the Friday after I got home and we had a very nice … Continued
