Authors

Most of Altimexis' stories focus on gay kids in high school, but they include all age groups, even into the 'golden years'. Most of the stories are serial, often covering a group of characters over a period of years. They include short stories, novels and novellas, and involve romance, drama and some science fiction. Background material has been heavily researched and is generally accurate at the time of writing. Stories are set in and around Indianapolis, where the author grew up, and New York City, where the author now lives, but may include travel all over the globe.

The gay man known as Brayon has worn a variety of hats over the years. Everything from a Gas Station Attendant to Writer.

"I'm not a Writer, I'm a Storyteller. And, yes there is a difference." - Brayon

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.

Wrote bad science-fiction in high school, sent some out but got it all back. In college I learned I had a talent for writing historical fiction, but didn't do anything with that until the internet put me in contact with others of like mind. This led to nearly two decades of writing interactive stories set in Ancient Rome, then I discovered gay fiction online and decided to try my hand at it.
My main story is based on my high school years, and I'm also back doing sci-fi!

My stories are born from my deepest emotions, bubbling to the surface when they demand to be released. The subjects I pursue are as varied as my interests, and I love to explore different genres. Some of my work is dark, some of it is light-hearted, but I never write the same story twice.

I am a disabled firefighter/paramedic. I enjoy reading, writing, and occasional video games on pc. I am also a proud father of three.

Born in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel, a suburb of Amsterdam, Netherlands. American dad, Nederlands mom. Moved to The States in 1976, and have had mixed feelings about it since. Love the US, still feel Dutch, try to combine both.
View the world through rose-colored glasses. I once tried to remove them, but found it to be caused by my eyes after all. Prognosis: no cure.

A proud father of four, Headstall's personal journey has been a series of twists and turns, and his stories often reflect his experiences. He is an unapologetic romantic who writes from the heart. You will find this in his fiction and his poetry. They are both emotionally driven, and men who aren’t afraid of their feelings often populate his work. If you’re looking for happily ever after, you will likely find it here.
