New release and New release to come!
Whew. It took me hours to get this far. A techno-genius I am not. But it's a start.
My new short story Burma Girl, from Untreed Reads is now available as an E-book just about everywhere. A full list of places to buy it can be found at the publisher's website:
http://www.untreedreads.com/?page_id=...
"Burma Girl is the story of a man obsessed, and the destruction and havoc it bestows upon his daughters. Told from the point-of-view of the sisters, now elderly, the tale unfolds all of the pain and drama that has happened to the family. Along with the tale of a man completely mad in his pursuits, other family secrets begin to be revealed. In the end, nobody escapes the wrath of the Burma Girl."
NEW AND COMING IN JULY
Counterpoint: Dylan's Story will be published in July by Dreamspinner Press. This is one author who can't sit still for the excitement. Do you have any idea how hard it is to type when you're doing a happy dance? Especially when you're a klutz?
Two other short stories are available from Untreed Reads:
Mr. Newby's Revenge -- if you ever wanted to know how to use colored contact lenses, brown paper towels, and kitty litter to get even with somebody (shades of MacGyver!) this story will tell you how.
The Lawyer, the Ghost, and the Cursed Chair will make you laugh... unless you think a furry gay junk dealer, a 98-pound nun in jail for assault, a gay lawyer, a ghost, and a 100-year-old curse aren't funny.
My novel The Phoenix new edition published 2009 by Lethe Press, is available wherever fine books are sold. Gay Victorian drama beginning in the slums of London and following Kit St. Denys from there to fame in England and America, through stunning trauma, and home again.

Mainstream reviews for Counterpoint: Dylan's Story!!!
I haven't posted anywhere for quite a while, due to family stuff a.k.a. Real Life, but I wanted to pop in with something that pleased me. My reviews for Counterpoint: Dylan's Story have been fabulous so far, but they were all people and reviewers in the gay romance genre field. You can't help wondering how well a mainstream reviewer w...ould view the book when you are reviewed only by your own genre, whether it's SF, fantasy, erotica or what have you.
In the last couple of weeks, I've had the pleasure of have two mainstream reviews:
one will be published in the Historical Novel Review. The magazine won't be out for a while due to delays, but I saw the tearsheet, and it's a short but very, very good review, though it unfortunately has a major spoiler.
The other is online at Feathered Quill http://www.featheredquill.com/histori... -- where it's listed in two categories: Historical, and Romance
It, too, is a terrific review and fairly long.
I love my genre readers and reviewers to pieces, but it's a warm and fuzzy feeling to get mainstream reviews, too. The first ones I've had for a novel.
