Authors

The writings of andr0gene mostly reside under the 'romance' category, pitting characters into awkward or impossible situations and let them make the best of it. Several of his efforts have popped up around the web over the years, before settling in here at GA, putting them all together in one place. His releases are far and in-between, so catch em as they come! Andr0gene writes to us from the Netherlands.

A reader commented Carlos practices socially engaged storytelling. Not preachy, but raising awareness of issues facing the GLBT community and humanity in general. These are tales grounded in real life, featuring gay men dealing with everyday concerns about family, friends, and relationships. Characters are men who tackle challenges instead of backing away from them. The author’s love of motorcycles and travel and his contempt for social injustice often play a central role in his stories.

Carlos passed away June 16, 2023.

M/M romance with a heavily influence on mental health struggles with HEA. Sometimes featuring: explicit sex, heavy plots mixed with humor, and characters you may not always like.
The goal is to make people feel and perhaps think a little differently.

My writing explores the human experience and focuses on characters finding their way. It is often reflective or descriptive of the emotional, spiritual, and profound discovered in life’s moments. I love words that carry unexpected insight; Contrasting or seemingly dissimilar ideas that suddenly align in moments of epiphany.

Just a New England girl, livin' in a writer's world. She took the midnight train goin' anywhere.
Writing lets me slip into worlds where I get to let my imagination fly. I love trying new things and delving into the lives of my characters.
So grab a ticket- they're free. Listen to the literary conductor... All aboard!

Originally from the land of Shakespeare, I've been slogging away at writing for many years (on and off). It's been fun, hard work, but rewarding and has been a great discipline for someone who treats writing as a past-time rather than as a way to put food on the table. I've had a couple of successes, lots of failures and have finally learnt how to take feedback, whether positive or constructive, gracefully, and in the way it's given.

MrsGnomie loves being in love and the not-so-easy-road getting there. What is life if we're not challenged along the way?
PNW, M/M, humor, banter, drama, HEA.

I love writing angsty slash where characters overcome terrible things to find their happiness. I love happy endings. Science fiction and fantasy are my favorites, but I will work on other areas if I get an idea I like.
I find a lot of enjoyment in details of a world and characters, things that make it interesting and real to me. How does this thing affect that thing? If this psychic ability, mythological creature, sci fi thingamajig existed, how would it integrate into the real world? What might be the unexpected effects? I love that stuff.
I also enjoy how characters can grow and change with experiences and how their quirks and flaws affect their behavior and interaction with others.
