Heart of Timber – Book 2 of the Cold Series

July 14, 2013 By Brandon 1 Comment

We have a title for book two of the Cold series!

I have had so many emails about the next book – if there was going to be one, when it’s coming, what the title is… that I’m nearly overwhelmed. But it is a pleasure to see that so many of you have enjoyed the story despite its initial setting. I guess you, my readers, have proved that you can, in fact, love the unlovable. (Particularly when it came to Lem.)

Heart of Timber - mm romance

Well, we’re switching locations in book two, but all I can say right now is to click on the picture below. It will give you a hint about where we are off to in the Heart of Timber.  And, if you want to keep up with what’s happening with the new book, come join us on Goodreads.

Obscura Burning – Suzanne van Rooyen

July 12, 2013 By Brandon Leave a Comment

Welcome friend and fellow author, Suzanne van Rooyen to the blog. I’ve put her to the test and asked which of her own books is her favorite and why. ~B

Suzanne van RooyenReading has always been therapeutic, like going for a brief holiday every night that leaves me feeling rejuvenated and ready to face real life. Writing has proven even more cathartic as I immerse myself in the worlds I create and become my various characters be they cyborgs or androids, androgynous angels, genetically engineered super-soldiers, or troubled bisexual boys.

I’ve written several books, only two of which are published so far, and numerous short stories. I loved writing each and every story, from novel to flash fiction, for different reasons. Being forced to pick a favourite feels horribly unfair since they’re all dear to me, but since a favourite is what this post is all about I’ll have to choose Obscura Burning.

My Favorite Book – LGBT Author Rick R. Reed

May 28, 2013 By Brandon 3 Comments

Welcome Rick R. Reed to the blog. He’s here to talk to us about which of his books is his favorite, and why.  

Rick R. Reed, AuthorWhen you begin to lose track of how many books you’ve had published, it’s really hard to say which one is your favorite. It’s like asking Mrs. O’Farrell, a staunch Irish Catholic who lived next door to us when I was growing up which of her nine children was her favorite.

“They’re all my favorites,” I imagine her replying, “Each for a different reason.”

And the same holds true for me and my books. But today I am thinking about Chaser probably because its sequel Raining Men comes out on May 31. For its humor, its insight about body image (and the gay ideal or lack thereof), and its theme of attractiveness being a highly personal and relative thing, Chaser truly is, of my own stuff, one of my favorites.

Since its publication back in August of 2012, I’ve gotten many letters from readers thanking me for introducing a romantic hero who is not the ideal. See, the object of desire/affection in my story is Kevin and Kevin’s a little overweight. The “chaser” in the title refers to the gay lingo term for men who prefer their men on the meatier side: chubby chasers. [Read more…] about My Favorite Book – LGBT Author Rick R. Reed
