Fifty Shades Film Stars Announced

Fifty Shades Film Stars Announced



The lead roles in the film adaptation of mega-billion bestseller Fifty Shades of Grey were announced and here they are.

Dakota Johnson will star as Anastasia Steele and Charlie Hunnam as Christian Grey in the highly anticipated film adaptation of the erotically charged novel Fifty Shades of Grey.

Sorry, it's not Matt Bomer or Ian Somerhalder for the part of Christian. But I can't say I'm totally disappointed with Charlie Hunnam. I think he'll do well.

Big Thanks to Queer Town Abbey for Author of the Month

Big Thanks to Queer Town Abbey for Author of the Month

When the people at Queer Town Abbey e-mailed me earlier this month with a questionnaire, letting me know that I'd been chosen Author of the Month, I couldn't have been more thrilled. It was the last thing I expected, and I'm honored because I'm a huge fan of Queer Town Abbey and everything the owners have been doing for the past few years.

They asked some interesting questions, and even posted a quote from one of my books that I like...

Jason Ritter Nude Scenes; Pygmalion Story "The Makeover"



I personally don't think good actors have to shy away from nude scenes in films in an attempt to try to be more artistic...or even better...than actors who do nude scenes (or even sex scenes). In other words, I think there are times in films, just like in books, where nudity and sex is important to the storyline and it shouldn't be overlooked just because an actor has an issue with doing nude or sex scenes. I include both men and women in this.

And Jason Ritter is one of the best ac...

James Franco Full Frontal Nudity; Cory Booker Looking For Gay Vote?

James Franco Full Frontal Nudity

Someone sent me this link, and since it's Labor Day Weekend I thought I would share. Can't post the photos here on this blog, but the link is safe and it works very well.

Hotness career student, and all around renaissance man James Franco derives many a pleasure from teasing his gay and straight fans alike. We will never forget his Flaunt derriere cover and be forever grateful for it. But this here photo is one of the best-est gift that could be extended t...

Women Who Love to Love Gay Romance; Indie Publishing

Women Who Love to Love Gay Romance; Indie Publishing



Instead of adding a link to the other post about the release of this book, I wanted to mention something for those who think indie publishing is simple in a separate post. This book was uploaded to Amazon around six o'clock this morning and I just received an e-mail verification that it went live a few minutes ago. Thankfully, Smashwords and allromanceebooks.com were faster to deal with. This is also why it's so hard to pinpoint an actual re...

Rainbow Award Jurors Thanks; Racism on Big Brother 15 Confronted

Rainbow Award Jurors Thanks

Each year the jurors who are part of the rainbow awards work very hard reading and rating books, so when I saw this note of thanks today I asked if I could have permission to post it here on the blog so readers can see what's going on behind the scenes. I have one good friend who I know is reading at least eight books, and others are reading even more. And it's nice to see that all this hard work is helping a cause in the long term.

From my inbox:

Dear Jury,

I really w...

MensUnderWearStore.Com; New Hope Mayor No Gay Marriage; 2004 Marriage License Legal in NM

MensUnderWearStore.Com

I get interesting e-mails all the time from companies all over the world. Some I even like posting about with permission from the companies that send these e-mails. In this case I'm talking about mensunderwearstore.com, where they carry a line of underwear that's different from other places I've seen. The prices are not bad at all, and I own a few pairs myself.

From my inbox:

The MensUnderwearStore.com team of photo experts recently shot Ryan Bertroche on location in St....

Holly Golightly's Story; Cory Booker Gay Rumors



Holly Golightly's Story

This article about the creation of Holly Golightly in Truman Capote's novella, Breakfast at Tiffany's, has several interesting points. One of which deals with her personality and how she thinks about men.

In her disregard for the conventions of polite society and her sexual adventurousness, Holly is something of an avatar of the liberated woman of the Sixties and Seventies, although she probably wouldn’t have approved of hippie sartorial practices, nor would she have lik...
