Two New Stories and a new job!

I'm writing you to tell you about two recent publications, my story "The Day the Governor Came Out" in Best Gay Love Stories: Summer Fling, and "The Night Bus," appearing in the current issue of Velvet Mafia alongside the likes of Lawrence Schimel, Thomas S. Roche, and Trebor Healey.

On Thursday, November 15th @ 7pm, I’m reading with other contributors to Sex By the Book: Gay Men’s Tales of Lit and Lust. We’re reading at the LGBT Center in NYC, address below.

Also got a new job: am now training to become a librarian! In school at Drexel, and working at the FLP...yay for librarianism!

Forget the bars and chat rooms—colleges, libraries, and bookstores are the real hotbeds of gay hooking up. Green Candy Press's new anthology *Sex by the Book* explores the juncture of literature and lust. Come hear NYC-based contributors Stephen Greco, Sam J. Miller, Joseph Manera, Joel Nichols and Don Shewey read from their funny and touching memoirs and stories about two vital obsessions—books and sex.
