It's been a wild ride, from super highs to crashing lows. I create characters who are flawed and broken, like me.

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.

Mostly sappy, feel-good type stories.

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!

I write gay male erotica. My work requires a plot, and some of it is a slow burn, but the hot stuff does happen.

Bill W’s stories present adolescent to college age young men dealing with issues and situations that confront the gay community. These stories often contain explicit sexual scenes, but the content of the various selections is about far more than the isolated sexual escapades. I hope you sit back and enjoy the fictional tales being offered here.

Hi! Lover of all things romantic and lewd, I enjoy paranormal, mythological, supernatural. My works largely feature these things, hope you enjoy!

They say it's the little things, and while there's nothing unassuming or inconsequential about the distinctive style or the rich and evocative descriptions that are so beautifully written, the stories unfold, as words embrace you, provoking you to expose yourself enough to grow and heal alongside his characters. An exercise in self-exploration and pride, love and angst, Shadowgod's stories will entice you to keep pushing until you reach your heart's ambition, sometimes, even before you know what that is.

A bit of this, some of that, Q-Topolis will take you to different places. From the real to the fantastical, yesterday, today, tomorrow or to a time and place unknown. Hopefully, the characters will draw you into their lives and their adventures will entertain. Welcome and enjoy.
