Exclusive new Something Like… stories on Patreon!

November 22nd, 2015 | Books, Seasons Series, Storms Series

The world of gay fiction has been steadily growing, not only in terms of authors and books, but readers as well. Unfortunately, it’s not near as big as other genres out there. Not even close. That means it’s a little hard to earn a living doing what I love most. Would it surprise you to...

Something Like Stories out today!

November 11th, 2015 | Books, Seasons Series, Something Like Stories

When I agreed to write a short story to help fundraise the Something Like Summer movie, I honestly didn’t have a solid concept in mind. I didn’t even consider myself very good at writing short stories. So I approached Something Like Fall by indulging in what I wanted most—to spend time with Benjamin Bentley again....

When's the last time someone pleasured your ears? Hmmm? If it's been too long (or even if it hasn't) Something Like Spring is now available on audio! For those who don’t read the books as they come out, Spring is about a guy named Jason Grant. We haven’t met him in the previous three books,...

Something Like Characters – Benjamin Bentley

January 20th, 2015 | Art, Seasons Series, Something Like Summer

From the time I wrote my very first book, I dreamed of being able to create drawings of the characters. Words can only hint at a person’s appearance. Images get a lot closer. It’s always exciting for me when Andreas works on my covers, since it helps gives the characters form. Sadly, many characters never...

August 17th, 2014 | Books, Gay, Seasons Series, Something Like Autumn

Tongues and ears. That’s the news of the day. The tongue part is pretty exciting, because Something Like Summer can now be read in German and French, in addition to the English and Italian versions already out there. I’ve set up a new page on my site right here where you can see the different...

A hint of Spring

August 24th, 2013 | Books, Gay, Seasons Series, Something Like Spring

Happy Birthday, Tim Wyman! Now please move out of the spotlight because there’s a new guy in town. Speculation has been rampant over who the main character in Something Like Spring will be. When I announced it would be an all new character, I should have been more specific and said a newly invented character....
