Bookstore

 

Here are books I've had something to do with. You can buy them and make the editors happy they included me.

One of These Things is Not Like the Other is my brand-spanking new novel!

Execution, Texas: 1987 is my first novel.

Strategic Sex: Why They Won't Keep it in the Bedroom is an anthology I edited.

I was guest judge for Best Gay Erotica 2000.

Suspect Thoughts Press will put out my new novel, One of These Things is Not Like the Other, in 2005. Greg and Ian from STP edited my story "Get on Your Bikes and Ride!" in their anthology Law of Desire.

A story I co-wrote with Kevin Killian, "Just for One Day," is in his fab collection I Cry Like a Baby.

Robert Kirby, who does the great comic strip Curbside, collaborated with me on my story "Instruction" for his zine with David Kelley, Boy Trouble.

One of my favorite stories, "Truncated Offramp," is in Brian Bouldrey's Best American Gay Fiction 2.

The only essay  of mine (I know of) included in multiple academic syllabi is "Le Freak, C'est Chic. Le Fag, Quelle Drag" from Pomosexuals: Challenging Assumptions About Gender and Sexuality, edited by Lawrence Schimel and Carol Queen.

Queen and Schimel were also so kind as to include my story "100% Natural" in Switch Hitters: Lesbians Write Gay Male Erotica and Gay Men Write Lesbian Erotica. If you're feeling Teutonic, you can even buy the German version!

Best Gay Erotica 1996 includes my story "Aegis." So does Rough Stuff: Tales of Gay Men, Sex, and Power. So does Best of the Best Gay Erotica. That story gets around more than I used to. <<rimshot!>>

Best Gay Erotica 1997 has my story "Palladium." Not to be confused with the Microsoft security initiative of the same codename.

My story "Digestion" is in Reclaiming the Heartland: Lesbian and Gay Voices from the Midwest.

Guess which reviews I wrote in The Stranger Guide to Seattle: The City's Smartest, Pickiest, Most Obsessive Urban Manual. Not that I'm picky or obsessive. Although I am in two books with variants of "obsess" in the title. Hmmm….

My treasured family recipe for Frito Pie is in Schimel's Food for Life ... and Other Dish.

"Tongues" is my vampire story in Michael Rowe and Thomas Roche's Sons of Darkness: Tales of Men, Blood and Immortality.

"Hearth" is a Christmastime story about a Seattle hustler in Roche's Noirotica 2: Pulp Friction.

"Going Down" is a story about sex and elevator nightmares in M. Christian's Eros Sex Machina.

"Romantic / Sexual Agenda" is basically a performance text from my art school days that wound its way into Schimel's Boy Meets Boy.

My essay "Flexible Fidelity" appears in Michael Lowenthal's Gay Men at the Millennium: Sex, Spirit, Community.

Mike put me in another one of his books: "Harold Ramis' Glasses" is in Obsessed : A Flesh and the Word Collection of Gay Erotic Memoirs.

I've got an essay on my days in the Radical Faeries in Ritual Sex, edited by Tristan Taormino and David Aaron Clark.

Joani Blank reprinted my essay from Black Sheets about jerking off in First Person Sexual: Women & Men Write About Self-Pleasuring.
