Announcement

  

I am pleased to announce that my second book, 10 Smart Things Gay Men Can Do To Find Real Love has been re-published by Magnus Books! The book has been out of print for two years due to Alyson Books experiencing financial troubles. It has taken me this long to find the right publishing house who will also be publishing my first book, 10 Smart Things Gay Men Can Do To Improve Their Lives. 

 

I cannot tell you how frustrating it has been to have my books out of print. I spend a great deal of time writing them. They were selling very well before Alyson stopped printing them. Don Weise is the publisher of Magnus Books and for me this was a good match for my work given that he has a long history in GLBT publishing.

The book's re-release is timely in that I spend the first three chapters talking about the trauma of growing up gay which results from bullying and living in silence with something very core to one's own identity. 

 

It is not a book just about relationships either as it addresses mother issues and father issues which is something we can all examine and learn from. I even included a chapter on making the decision to remain single which is a fine decision to make if that is what you choose.
