Authors

J.Ross writes stories that strive to capture the raw, honest emotions that come along with being a teenager today. Stories that bring the readers back to those first kisses, loves, and experiences in a way that makes you feel like you're going through them all over again. The good, the bad, and the awkward that comes along with figuring out who you are and learning how to accept it.

Tales of ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances; the discovery of sacrifice, hope, love and what it means to be human. I aim to touch your emotions and inspire your imagination; to breathe life into the verdant worlds of my mind and share that experience -- with you.

The two stories I've authored thus far, WORKING IT OUT and BELOVED, can be classified as "growing up gay" works, I think. The protagonist(s) are outed or come out to family and friends, sometimes moving from questionable support or lack of support for their orientation among significant others into strong commitments which permit them to mentor others. Religious affiliations of the heroes and their real or adoptive families are portrayed as supportive of gays, who often seek formal recognition .
