Welcome to my little corner of creative pursuits. Please select from the following for your reading pleasure.
Please note all my stories involve male to male sexual activity, in some cases quite graphic, at other times only mentioned as part of the narrative. Also, a number of my stories have characters with serious psychological problems, suicides occur, and there is always the chance for violence. Many of my characters do not live happy lives. And, characters die here.
