Heart, humour and keeping it real.

I am a two times Lambda Literary Award Finalist—2020 for DIGGING DEEP and 2024 for THE ART OF HUSBANDRY.
I have also received the The Romance Writers of New Zealand 2021 Romance Book of The Year Award for OFF BALANCE.

Quotes by Jay Hogan (?)

“Well, Mr. Samuels, news flash. You don’t get to decide what I feel or where I am in my sexual awakening. You only get to decide if you want to be part of the ride.”
― Jay Hogan, Unguarded

“Mostly my dick had given up on me, fully expecting the last post to ring out at any moment, whereupon it would be rolled up and packed away, only to be brought out on special occasions as a kind of memorial.”
― Jay Hogan, Off Balance

“Whoever said sexuality was a choice, I needed that fucker’s address and a suitably sized cactus to shove where the sun don’t shine.”
