MacGregor penned the novel when a dear friend asked him to write a bedtime story. “I wrote a piece she could snuggle up with in her newly decorated bedroom…and her life”, he stated. “The book emphasizes the pride I feel as a gay man, willing to stand up for being the best I can be. Being a FAG empowers change. It takes strength to come out of the closet and resolve to redefine a hateful word."Captured by Foreword Review, “It’s never too late to change,” the author stresses, pointing to his own decision to “take on” the word “fag,” never one of his favorites, and not only use it, but glorify it, in his new novel. And that he does, in all sorts of creative permutations: Fag-a-pendous, Fag-tabulous, Fag-rentious, and even Super-Fag-alicious are sprinkled liberally throughout, reinforcing the message that the word is not to be feared but, rather, celebrated.”
