'Nathan Burgoine grew up a reader and studied literature in university while making a living as a bookseller. His first published short story was "Heart" in the collection Fool for Love: New Gay Fiction. Since then, he has had dozens of short stories published, and despite being "the tall queer guy who writes mosly shorter queer fictions" novels have happened between the novellas and short stories.

A cat lover, 'Nathan managed to fall in love and marry Daniel, who is a confirmed dog person. Their ongoing "cat or dog?" détente ended with the rescue and adoption of huskies. They live in Ottawa, Canada, where socialized health care and gay marriage have yet to cause the sky to cave in.

STA Saturday — Expanding the Shackleton Expanse with Preprinted Adventures

Hey all! It’s Saturday, when I try to offer up something for Star Trek Adventures (the awesome Trek tabletop role playing game from Modiphius), and I’m back today to chat about the wonderful Shackleton Expanse Campaign Guide, which I’ve been playing with one of my two groups for the past couple of years and we’re just about to finish our second season and reach the end of 2372.

Second Self by Una McCormack

I really liked this one—and I was so glad it was January La Voy rather than Robert Petkoff given the POV was mostly Raffi throughout.

I have to give Una McCormack so much credit here—I love a story with wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey goodness, and the par

“My bond with Luc and Anders is holy," I said. "It's just, y'know, holy in a gay threesome sort of way.”
Nathan Burgoine, Erotica Exotica: Tales of Sex, Magic, and the Supernatural

“The more words you use, the more untruths sneak in.”
Nathan Burgoine, Triad Blood

“It didn’t feel right to die in summer. Autumn maybe. Or winter. Winter was for dying. Death shouldn’t have a UV rating.”
Nathan Burgoine, In Memoriam

“Look, I've been doing this a long time. If I'm honest with you, then yes. The Families could have done both. The car thing is absolutely their style, like you said."

Luc frowned. "But you don't think they did it."

David shook his head. "No. Because you're alive. The Families wouldn't screw up twice." He left, closing the door behind him.

"If that was supposed to make me feel better," Curtis said, "it needed way more puppies. Or something from the chocolate family.”
Nathan Burgoine, Triad Blood

There is a remedy, or there is none.

If there be none, never mind it.”
