Random Guys: Statuary

Working on a fantasy romance piece at the moment. It's slow going so I've been looking for inspiration. I like the interplay between photography and sculpture. As far as the interplay between the two guys, I'll have to give that some more thought.

Casting Glee: Who's Rachel's Daddy?

John Barrowman

Sam Harris
There's been a lot of discussion about Rachel's two dads on Glee. If I cast the show, these boys would be hired in a flash. Both of them have publicly expressed an interest in the roles. Both of them are well known in the musical theater world and if McKinley High gets attacked by aliens, John's got combat experience from Doctor Who and Torchwood.

Review: Paws de Deux (Best Gay Romance 2010, Cleis)
This book has been out a while, but somebody just sent me this great review at outpersonals.com. Thanks to T.R. Moss for the mention:
"Paws de Deux" by Jamie Freeman is a scrumptious bear-on-bear romance, ranging from a romantic poolside dance to Frank Sinatra to dirty sex in the field of flowers, and then sex in a secluded log cabin in front of the fire. It's refreshing to read about such hot sex in the context of a long-term, complex relationship.

The Battle Against Civil Rights - Still Recruiting Children

Anita Bryant will reportedly be sharing her wisdom this weekend at the "Reclaiming America for Christ" youth rally in Yukon, Oklahoma. Here's a sample: "If gays are granted rights, next we'll have to give rights to prostitutes and to people who sleep with St. Bernards and to nailbiters."
And there's this gem: "As a mother, I know that homosexuals cannot biologically reproduce children; therefore, they must recruit our children."
And in her 1978 Playboy Magazine interview, she explained t...

Fan Review: Necking (Dreampsinner Press)

"The majority of the 15 stories offered are decent to good (~2.5 to 3 stars or so). A couple stood out above that such as Thank you Note by Jamie Freeman about an established couple having a fling with potential and wonder how to go about dating a new person. The characters are warm, fun, and inviting exactly like the hot sex they get up to. The story is well developed and the sense of fun, adventure, and possibility comes throug...

Captain America (and Mark Twain) on being an American.
Labeled an outlaw by the U.S. government, the press, and the general public for his unwillingness to accede to tyrannical legislation that he feels compromises the civil rights of U.S. citizens, Captain America talks to Peter Parker (Spider-Man's young alter ego) about what it means to be a true patriot._______________
"I remember the first time I really understood what it was to be an American...What it was to be a patriot."
"I was just a kid...A million years ago, it seems sometimes. Maybe tw...

Review: Necking
A nice review of "The Thank You Note" (
Necking
, Dreamspinner Press) at Dear Author:
"Army (WTF with that name?!) and Roddy are long-term lovers and they decide to celebrate their 7th anniversary by bringing in a third. The story is told in three "Acts" from each of the men's perspectives, and starts from Army's POV, remembering with Roddy the evening before with Aidan and how Army and Roddy met at a performance of Aida. Roddy takes over and remembers how they hooked up with Aidan through Craig...
