    Thanks, Gary! I hope you enjoy the rest with it!

    Thanks @Modified Cub! Very glad to hear from you. Book Two is planned for tomorrow, the rest to come out over the next few weeks. The story is complete, so no one will be left hanging.

    Thanks @Cane23. I probably shouldn't say this, but Parents Weekend was inspired by a photo of gay performer Matt Dubbe with two women and another man, standing together in front of a flowering tree. I couldn't see it without thinking of college Parents Weekend, the designated time for parents to come see how their freshmen kids are settling in. The story sort out in my brain instantly, so I picture it a little as Ted Lasso in the body of Matt Dubbe. I hope it works!

    Thanks @dboggs9700. Not sure if it's the longest but it should be the longest to roll out. I think I'll get Book Two out tomorrow, and then go weekly for the last three. But I assure you, they are written, so no one will be left hanging, unless I'm hit by a meteor before I release the last. On the topic of long, I am working on what for me is a very ambitious and long tale about a barista torn between an intense mafia assassin and a sweet but bumbling cop. Sometimes dating is murder.

    Chapter 1: The Human Dorito Matt popped the minivan trunk and stepped back to admire his handiwork. Although Caleb had been away at college for less than a month, Matt treated this Parents Weekend trip like a tactical resupply mission. He’d spent the night before playing Tetris with the delivery: a high-velocity floor fan, an ergonomic desk chair, a microwave, and four cases of protein shakes, topped by his heavy, canvas tool bag. The boxes fit so perfectly you couldn’t slip a but

    To his family, Matt is just the dorky, mustached dad. The men he meets see the body underneath, and the switch that flips behind closed doors. Three days, five encounters, one Parents Weekend. A story to be published in whole in five parts.

    Agreed! I won't say more, but some responses intrigued me.

    @CCinPS, thank you for reading for the very thoughtful comment. Mantown is definitely ripe for a sequel. I don't have one planned, but the themes will certainly recur.

    Sometimes you just need a little midlife crisis to find your way.

    Chapter 9: The Mentor “Let’s move this to the bed,” Terrell said, his voice a deep command. He rose to his feet and turned toward the hallway, naked from the waist down. Jesse followed, heart pounding, holding his pants up mid-thigh, his wet cock bouncing with every step. Walking through another man’s apartment like this—exposed, no shame, no performance—felt like stepping into another man’s life. The bedroom was pure Terrell: a dark iron bed frame and crisp charcoal sheets pulled

    Chapter 5: Two Kings It took until ten-thirty the next morning for Jesse to even remember the conversation. He was sitting at his desk, staring blankly at a spreadsheet, when the memory of the steakhouse suddenly pierced through his mild hangover. He winced, rubbing his temples. How much did I actually drink to say those things out loud? He knew exactly why Lyssa had given him her "blessing" so easily—Mantown. She didn’t care if he found a man because they both knew how exclusivel

    Chapter 1: The State of Man Jesse King stood in his master bathroom, running a hand down the side of his throat, testing the tension of the skin. The house was quiet except for the low drone of morning news drifting from the bedroom TV. There are a lot of things about us men that fucking sadden me, he thought, leaning closer until his breath fogged the glass. Like how women see us as such bastards… He shook his head, leaning his weight on the cool marble of the double vanity, imag

    Thanks, Chris. They got a peacock too!

    Thanks @Cane23. Your comments and review left me grinning over here. It's true, I did trojan horse a few opinions in here. Glad they worked.

    Thanks, buddy. I truly had so much fun writing this one.

    I'm glad you stuck through Alex's stupid phase to make it to the end. ♥️

    Chapter 14: Cancel The Scallops The boxes of rainbow lanyards stacked by the elevators made it plain: The Employee of the Month gala was thirty-six hours away. Alex sat at his desk, shoving the crater of his personal life into a tight, dark box in the back of his mind. He was surprisingly good at compartmentalizing. It was a reflex he hadn’t realized he possessed until then. He hadn't seen Ryan since Sunday afternoon. The toothbrush he kept in Alex's bathroom was dry as a bone. Th
