Hop Against Homophobia
International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia
Welcome, today is the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia, and to celebrate hundreds of authors, publishers, and individuals have an extraordinary blog hop going on. There are prizes, information, and many personal stories about what homophobia is and what it does. All of this is a concerted effort to bring awareness to the plague of homophobia and hopefully, to one day bring it to an end. You will find links at the bottom of this post to direct you to other posts from blogs around the world. Enjoy, and help us spread the word. Don’t forget to leave a comment for a chance to win an e-book copy of my JUST released new gay romance novel, Cold.
The Hidden Aspect of Homophobia – A Personal Experience
I remember a young man I was dating from a conservative Christian family who lived in a small town in Alabama. Both his mother and sister knew he was gay. They loved him dearly but… [Read more…] about Hop Against Homophobia
Release Day!
Cold is finally here.
Yes, we’re a little early. But allow me to introduce you to Lem and Anderson, two completely different men who have been thrust together in an environment from which they cannot escape.
To celebrate we will be having a blog hop starting next week with character insights, behind the scenes information, and hints about what’s coming up in book 2. (YES, there’s another book coming.) And throughout the month of May I’ll be posting around the internet with a few more tidbits for you to consider.
You can now download Cold from Amazon, AllRomanceEbooks, Smashwords and Kobo. iTunes and B&N will be available soon.
