About this author

Without writing an auto biography here, because seriously that could be another book itself, I'll throw in some facts....

As a kid I was raised on a rural island in the Chesapeake Bay. I was a total geek that loved astronomy and wildlife and creative writing in school. I collected autographed Astronaut pictures from NASA and pasted them on my walls. I was a fan of the BeeGees, Olivia Newton-John and Barry Manilow. I was fascinated with the male body and all the boys in school...I was destined for a colorful future.

My teenage years were spent in Florida on the Gulf Coast. I went from rural cornfields to surfer beach culture overnight. Prince and the Revolution was my idol and it wasn't long before posters of the half naked purple -wonder ador...more

Visiting the Ghost of Puppyboy (Gay & Lesbian)
1 chapters   —   updated Dec 17, 2010 07:55pm
Description: You are invited into my Go-Go Boy/Stripper past. Over a period of seven years in the nightclub industry, go on a journey through memorable stories interwoven with documented journal entries, telling a true tale of how a Micro-celebrity alter ego stage name is created and then eventually put to death by self destruction, eventually becoming a mere taunting ghost of the past. Encounter experiences of head exploding arrogance, defining friendships both shallow and deep, drug and alcohol addiction, traveling on naked money, struggling to find love under a DJ spotlight, and figuring out how to define the difference of being in love or in love with the idea of being in love. The nightclub industry wrapped its arms around me, swept me away in a whirlwind, but little did I know it would chew me up and spit me out. Come now, and visit my ghost with me.
