Rough Cut takes collects all of Vincent Diamond's stories in one book! Ranging all over Florida, from the racetracks of Tampa to the horse farms of Ocala and the coastal beaches, these stories are smut with heft. Filled with men who may be a little broken, a little worn down, but who have passion, these characters take chances on love and lust. These stories are sharp with cut, color, and clarity, focused on feelings and real-life gay men with real love in their hearts.
The alleged Vincent Diamond is a former Central Florida writer now transplanted to North Carolina. When not at the keyboard, I'm in the dressage ring, trying to pick up the correct diagonal at the trot--usually unsuccessfully. Diamond gleefully buys smutty periodicals for “research materials” and lists them on a Schedule C every year. The IRS has yet to question this deduction.
