Jason Rimbaud is a writer for an audience of one who lives in San Francisco and dreams of escaping back to his hometown in Pennsylvania. The only thing he loves more than cooking is creating little stories that he periodically shares online.

All stories were conceived and written without the use of AI or any other artificial means.

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.

Author of: Elias, Ridley, The Best Year, Standing in Shadows, Are You Christian, Roommates, Finding Alex, Force of Nature, and others. Mostly a Romance Author that dabbles in Poetry and Modern Fantasy. *Newest Story - Learned to Lie* - Now complete.

CarlHoliday's stories fall primarily into two classes: sci-fi stories of a distant future where humanity is still plagued with violent warfare and religious bigotry; and, modern stories about characters facing and overcoming significant psychological challenges. Adversity, physical or mental, is a common theme through most of the stories. There is also a endearing quality to a lot of the stories as you see young gay men grow through the troubles they endure. Characters die here.

I write down-to-earth romances with a healthy dose of sex. No high drama, no bright lights-big city - just an exploration of the friendships and relationships that make life worth living. If you're in the mood for a story that will give you a chuckle, maybe make you cry, and leave you with a warm heart, try one of mine.

Dean Warner Intrigues was my first attempt at writing fiction.

My second story is set in a far distant future, very different than most imagined. Men substantially outnumber women due to genetic tinkering and a blight that decimated human populations with long lasting residual effects.

My latest story is a short story called "Best Friends". I hope you enjoy it.

I'm continuing to work on some follow-up stories but am having some real obstacles. I don't want them to be just more of the same. However, I am enjoying catching up on some of my Amazon e-book purchases over the past couple of years and still read a lot on GA.

I write gay stuff. Sometimes with wolves and witches, warlocks and fairies.
I'm in Europe.

I started posting my first story, Oregon in the Fall, in December 2023. Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you so much for reading, it means the world to me.

I wrote some poetry a few years ago. Writing a little piece of fiction at the moment.
