I often say about my work that these are the stories I would want to read. They are stories about a segment of the LGBT community, those of us who are 55 and older, that often gets overlooked. We boomers have been rewriting history and culture since we were babies. We are still vibrant, interesting and interested, iconoclastic and hopeful. I hope that my books will reflect that.
And I am a romantic, so there is plenty of that in my work as well. Whether we have paired off happily or continue on as single adults, we are not immune to stories about the lure of a new love. Romance, humor and a little adventure are the things that interest me in fiction and I try to give that to the wonderful, generous readers who have been kind enough to contact me. I hope you will continue to be interested in my stories.
I live in Sacramento, California-a city that I love. I am surrounded by friends old and new, and am a very happy that I'm able to write and create all of these characters I am so fond of.
The new book is called "That's What Friends Are For" and is a roman a clef about my life in San Francisco during the AIDS epidemic in San Francisco. We fought back and maintained a sense of humor through it all and I hope I captured that in this book.
