I'm haven't caught it, but then I'm more a reader and enjoy keeping up to date with all the stories I follow here in Gay Authors, and if I miss you here, I have CRVBoy as well.
Just reading Chapter 8. In it you talk about gay marriage and such.
“Mike and Dave exchanged vows during that window of opportunity in 2008. They and about eighteen thousand others in California. I don’t know if Illinois will change the laws any time soon, but Rob and I will take the leap when it happens.”
I am assuming that making a little assumption that the time frame of the storyline is current, if this is not the fact then my comment doesn't really matter.... and perhaps you missed the news in Illinois, but Gov. Pat Quinn sign Civil Union into law on January 31 effective June 1 (I believe). So Illinois in effect does have same sex marriage, we just call it Civil Union. Pretty exciting, so are you going to have Rob and Rick walking down the aisle? If so, I'd love to perform the ceremony.
