Denver Student Responds To Archbishop: “I Am Catholic, And I Am Gay… I Do Not Need To Be ‘Healed’”

Bitter, because it’s the end of an exciting, breakthrough LGBT series I’ve worked hard on, and despite my excitement about it, the story has come to its natural end. Sweet, because I worked hard to give you a satisfying ending I hope you will thoroughly enjoy and.

That said, I’m proud to share with you the my next book, Balance of Power. I’ve...
