New Release: A Closed Door, by Andrew Q. Gordon So it’s been a hot minute since my last ‘release’ day. And while this is just a short story, it’s my first contemporary story that’s been published. I need to do a few more of these as I liked very much doing something without the fantasy/paranormal world building. I hope folks like it and if you do, please drop me a note here, on Goodreads or on Amazaon.
I’ve not published a straight up contemporary MM Romance yet – other than a free read or two on Gay Authors – so this is something of a milestone for me. This was something Lily Velden challenged me to write and I think it came out quite well, even if it is just a short story. I suspect I’ll want to try my hand at longer ones in the near future – especially if I get covers this nice again. Will Parkinson from Pride-Promotions made this badge which talks about the book and shows the cover: (I’ll post the cover soon – promise) The book is out on October 8th – so in just a few days. You can pre-order …
New Release: Dakota Skies, by Taylin Clavelli For those living under a rock and who don’t know by now, I am part owner of Wayward Ink Publishing. Today Wayward released our first Novel—Dakota Skies, by Taylin Clavelli. Taylin has become a real part of the Wayward family. People toss that term about freely, but she really has been a true and dear friend. The fact we can be the ones who make her dream of seeing Dakota Skies, in print a reality is one of those nice moments about being a publisher. Taylin worked hard on her story and is rightly proud of the result. Please take a moment to read a bit more about the book and click one of buy links and …
Those who follow my writing know that I don’t write a lot of contemporary MM romance stories. Most of my stuff is either paranormal or fantasy. I also haven’t written anything for inclusion in an anthology. So when I co-founded Wayward Ink Publishing with Lily Velden, it was suggested – nicely I’ll point out – that perhaps as a part owner of the company I might want to help the company along by writing something for inclusion in the anthology. So I bucked two trends and agreed to write a story for the Love, Loss, Laughter & Lust anthology that came out on July 20, 2014. A Closed Door is my contribution to the anthology. As I said, A Closed Door was …

These Works In Progress (WIP – not to be confused with Wayward Ink Publishing’s WIP) updates are always a bugger for me. I have such good intentions, but never seem to have the time to finish anything. BUT – this time I have some news without hopes or best intentions. This time, I actually have completed stories to announce. (Shocking, yes I know.)
Some of you know, some of you don’t, but Lily Velden recently started Wayward Ink Publishing (WIP). She asked me to be her partner in this venture, and while I said yes, I’m more of a very junior partner with a big mouth. Lily is the driving force behind this new publisher, I’m just a helper. WIP’s first book – Bollocks – is going to be released on June 5, 2014. It is, however, available for pre-order now on WIP’s website: Buy Link Bollocks is an anthology with a British twist.
