Once Upon a Castle by Ryan Field, "Love Simon" Sequel On TV For June Pride Month, Ryan Field Books

Once Upon a Castle by Ryan Field

My newest release, Once Upon a Castle, just dropped and I only have a link to Smashwords right now. But it will be released on Amazon and all other venues. And it will be available in e-book or print book. 

There's a lot about this book that I enjoyed writing, and one point of interest is the setting. The majority of the book is set in a small town in Louisiana. But I wanted to make a point of NOT romanticizing the old south and old plantations...that old...

9 Year Old Boy Asks Pete Buttigieg For Help Coming Out, Richard Grenell Highest Ranking Gay Official In the US, Ryan Field Books

9 Year Old Boy Asks Pete Buttigieg For Help Coming Out

I like this story for many reasons, and one of those reasons is that gay kids know they are gay at very young ages. You'll see straight people say things like, "Just let kids be kids and let them figure out what they want to be when they grow up." And that is the dumbest sentence I've ever heard. We don't have to figure out what we "want to be" when we grow up. We know we're gay right from the start. And the fact that clueless straight...

Military Men Dance Together In Vintage Photo, Young Male Refugees Selling Sex To Survive, Ryan Field Books

Military Men Dance Together In Vintage Photo

I love seeing these old vintage photos of gay men that were taken long before anyone even referred to men as gay. I always wonder what life must have been like for them. It couldn't have been easy. 

A vintage photo of unknown origin shows two shirtless military guys, dancing chest to chest and cheek to cheek.

You can check it out, here. And if you do a simple search sometimes you'll come up with more vintage pics like this. 

It's also...

Bollywood's First Gay Rom-Com, The Criticism Pete Buttigieg Receives, Ryan Field Books,

Bollywood's First Gay Rom-Com

I don't know much about this, and I know very little about Bollywood, but I have seen it trending all over social media. It's about a new gay romantic comedy that's being promoted heavily as the first gay rom-com ever released in India, and it's titled, Be Extra Careful About Marriage

Writer/director Hitesh Kewalya describes the key innovation in the film as empathizing with gay people, rather than making fun of them “in such a way as to make it accessible,...

Chasten Buttigieg Responds To Rush Limbaugh Homophobic Comments, Pete Buttigieg With a Beard, Ryan Field Books

Chasten Buttigieg Responds To Rush Limbaugh Homophobic Comments

I think one of the saddest things about this story is that Rush Limbaugh might be nearing the end of his life and he's still making homophobic comments, and he's still hurting good people. After his cancer diagnosis you'd think he might change...or not say anything at all. Evidently, that's not the case. I feel sorry for him.

The comments Limbaugh made caused reaction all over the place, and especially with Chasten Buttigieg.

In an...

Richard Grenell First Openly Gay Cabinet Secretary, Mayor Pete Buttigieg Suggests Michael Bloomberg Step Aside, Ryan Field Books

Richard Grenell Frist Openly Gay Cabinet Secretary

It's hard to believe that only a few years ago gay couples couldn't even legally marry. And now there's Pete Buttigieg running for President and being taken seriously, and this story with Richard Grenell making history once again. 

Keep in mind this isn't about politics. I only think in terms of what's happening with LGBTQ people here. It's not about Hollywood exploiting and appropriating gay culture. This is about two openly gay men...

New Release: ONCE UPON A CASTLE by Ryan Field, Nick Carter Got a Boner On Stage, Ryan Field Books,



New Release: ONCE UPON A CASTLE by Ryan Field

[image error]
I have a brand new release out that's a little different than what I normally write, but not that much different. The heat level is very low in this one, and only because the story just didn't call for too much explicit sex. And that's how it works for me. It's all about what's right for the story. Of course the book is also focused around LGBTQ people, including one transgender female character. However, I also incorporated a straight couple into...

Closeted Gay Man Hires Someone To Out Him At His Own Funeral, Two Gay Teachers Leave Catholic School, Ryan Field Books

Closeted Gay Man Hires Someone To Out Him At His Own Funeral

Here's just one more reason why I have no tolerance for homophobia from the left or the right. This story is a good example of how deep these things go, and how some are still so terrified of coming out of the closet. They wait until they die. That's big. A biker in Australia actually hired a man to out him at his own funeral.

The general story is about a private investigator who actually does this for a living. People hire him to...

An Honest, Sweet "Heteroflexible" Guy Is Curious, He Had the Best Gay Sex of His Life Writing About Straight Honeymoons, Ryan Field Books

An Honest, Sweet "Heteroflexible" Guy Is Curious

I can't help it. I love these new terms..."heteroflexible." They're as amusing as they are reality in many cases, and I think they've been ignored for too long. They show that not everyone falls under a category or into a neat little box. And that's fine. It's also nothing new. We're just beginning to talk about these things openly. 

Here's a guy who says he's "heteroflexible," and he's curious about engaging in simple, harmless sex with...

Study Says Same Sex Marriages Are Happier Than Hetero Marriages, Gay In Russia and "Love And Passion", Ryan Field Books

Study Says Same Sex Marriages Are Happier Than Hetero Marriages

I read an article once on a romance book review blog that stated there was gender politics in gay male relationships. I'm not linking to it because I can't stand the blog, or the blogger. However, it was a blog post written by a straight woman and the comment thread was a discussion by more straight women. It was amusing because non of them were gay men, and none even had the slightest clue about gay male marriages or gay male...
