C.D. Truncheon is from Portland, Oregon. There, he developed a knack for writing stories about young guys who are discovering their bodies and desires for the first time—sometimes with friends, sometimes with mature men, often in unsupervised locker rooms and outdoor camps where family and girlfriends won't find out. His favorite theme: new adults trained by strict parents to overachieve at the expense of their personal truths and carnal needs. In his spare time, Truncheon enjoys horseback riding and scrapbooking.
I really liked this even thought the protagonist is a huge asshole. The guy he likes, Shawn, is pretty awesome, though, even with purple hair. Good writing except for one place where the first person narrative starts describing something in third person that he wouldn't have been there to know about. Either way, nice plot and the characterization was great.
