Hello fellow writers/readers:

I am looking for one or more of you to review my latest novel, Simpleman, just published last month.
If you have time and interest in gay fiction, please DM me and I will happily send you an ePub file of the manuscript.

Abundant thanks!

Queer novelist here, fighting for weeks now with Bluesky over their decision to label and censor the cover of my sixth novel (releasing in another few months) as “sexually explicit” when the image depicted is from a fine art painting and only shows male bums. I fear this might only be the beginning.

My 11th novel, and 6th to be published (later this fall) has just been handed over to my trusted editor. I started it January 1st, wanting to complete a novel in 6 months so I could tune out the NEWS—and I did it!

Thanks for asking!

I just today met my 2025 new novel writing goal to achieve the milepost of writing 100,000 words in 100 days.

On New Year’s Day 2025, I committed to writing my 11th novel.
I also committed to completing the novel in 100,000 words which doesn’t look like it’s going to happen!

From a novelist who begins each new story with a book cover concept of his own design, the power of this cartoon rings true.
