The Advocate magazine published one of my essays today.....when I was a young and gay rodeo cowboy in Montana more than 40 years ago, I purchased my first copy of The Advocate, never imagining they would eventually publish my work. Or that they would name my memoir, Cowboys, to their "Top 20 Must Read Books" list. Pretty cool. https://www.advocate.com/voices/the-l...

I forgot to post this link to an essay of mine that was published in the Gay & Lesbian Review last year. I like this one. It gives a good glimpse into my background, and why I write what I do. https://glreview.org/young-and-gay-in...

My new novel, The Gift, was awarded the Gold Medal for best LGBTQ Fiction of 2025!! Love that! It's very rewarding to see the recognition of my historical novel. Thank you, Independent Book Awards! https://ippyawards.com/blog/2025-meda...

My memoir, Cowboys, Armageddon, and The Truth was recently picked up by Hollywood Producer, Kathleen McLaughlin, for movie development. It's very exciting to see the finished screenplay and see it progress to film. I'll post updates as it progresses to the big screen.
