Many of you know I write some YA stories, in addition to the M/M romance, although very little is published so far. On the Goodreads YA LGBT Books group that I help moderate, we choose a picture prompt each month and write stories for it. And after almost two years, I have a bunch of YA … Read more
Wow. Deep breath. I’m home in Minnesota after five days at GayRomLit in Atlanta. It’s lightly snowing here, and all of that event seems a bit like a dream. Although I did sign “Kaje Harper” on the credit card reader at the grocery store this morning, and had to redo it. GRL was a ton of exhausting fun, with some of the greatest people. I’m going to steal a few pictures from those great people … Read more
This Tuesday I’ll be flying out to GayRomLit – an annual retreat that brings together both readers and writers in the field of M/M romance. This is the third year for GRL, and the event will be in Atlanta, GA. Of the 400 or so attendees, 100 will be authors, and one of those will be, um, me. I went to GRL last year in Albuquerque as a reader, which meant I got to have … Read more

) Winners will be announced Dec. 8th. There are a number of categories, including Young Adult, so check out the finalists. The complete lists are … Read more

It’s finally out. You can now get Learning Curve – the 4th Life Lessons book, on the MLR Press website. It’s really great to see the book available, although also a little bittersweet since I don’t expect to write more novels for this series, at least for quite a while. I’ll miss Mac and Tony, but I hope you like the place they end up in, and all the adventures along the way. I’ll … Read more
Soooo the saga of the cover for this book… When I wrote Life Lessons, MLR press knew there was one sequel coming, if the first book sold well enough to release the second. The artist picked a couple of cover guys – a Tony who was perfect and a Mac who wasn’t even close. (Polished, waxed and grinning, with a gold chain – just, nope.) But she heard my comments and looked around, and changed … Read more
