Two years ago, I decided to end the Something Like.. series. At the time I was feeling creative fatigue, which was unusual, because for me these books have been a source of unbridled joy for nearly a decade. I hated the thought that they might become an obligation or something I resented. So I decided...
December 13th is when the final Something Like… book will hit retail! This story returns us to where it all began—with Ben and Tim. It seems appropriate then that the cover should reflect that very first book. In more than one way! For most of us, the first time we saw Ben he was staring...
Something Like Forever, the final book in the Something Like… series, is nearing publication. If you haven’t heard, this one is about Ben and Tim. It bounces back and forth between their perspectives and brings the entire saga to a close in the most emotional way possible. I’m hoping to have Forever out sometime in...
I recently announced that Something Like Hail would be released on September 6th. I thought I could manage that, and maybe I still could, but I would have to rush things. I don’t like rushing things.

Something Like Stories: Volume Two is now available as an audiobook! I’m immensely proud of this one, since it offers a little bit of everything. You want more Ben and Tim? Check. What’s that? You’re team Jace? He’s in there too. Wish guys like Kelly, Nathaniel, Jason, and William got more stories? No problem! And...
Last year, I embarked on an experiment where I invited a select group of readers to design a new character for the Something Like… series. This was done through a number of polls. From there, we took this new character and plonked him down in Austin, Texas to see what would happen. My job was...
The internet has made it possible for people to be creative and earn a living from it. That’s a wonderful thing which has allowed all sorts of previously overlooked genres to thrive. Gay fiction is the perfect example. Not many publishers were willing to take a risk on it before. Now it doesn’t matter, because...
Looking for something to do on June 24th? Why not join me in Kansas City? We can see a movie together! There's a new one out called Something Like Summer. Sound good? Let's plan on it! Yoo may not know this, but I was born and raised in the Kansas City area, and even though...
