Finding love follows Matthew (Mattie/Matt) Jacobs as he enters Sophomore year of High School, just a mere few months after a huge tragedy. While Mattie struggles to move forward someone else from the shadows is struggling with their love for Mattie and an unexpected situation brings the two together.

A receptacle for my attempts at translating other poets’ work.

Resentment is the story of two men separated by time who are drawn to the island of Adermoor Cove and its mysterious lighthouse.

Upon arriving on the island, Thomas finds himself falling into orbit with the enigmatic Agamemnon. Their relationship will change the course of his life forever.

Jude and his partner, Duane, arrive at Adermoor Cove in an attempt to fix their broken relationship. Something about the island and the lighthouse seem familiar to him despite never having been there

The plan was simple: survive high school and get the hell out of his hometown.

Alec Kennedy failed miserably.

He fell in love. Unfortunately, he still carried out his plan and left town. Leaving his first love behind.

Years later, Alec's forced to return home to deal with an unexpected family emergency.

There was a new plan: desperately try to avoid his former partner.

He failed miserably again.

There seems to be a pattern here.

A midlife single university teacher in ornithology feels deeply unhappy with his life so far and starts pondering what made it that way. But although he is able to find part of the answers, he doesn’t have the courage to change it. When he is sent on a field research job in Alaska, the total change in environment brings him this courage and he enjoys the new-found freedom with the help of an extraordinary guide.

This will be a collection for most of my poetry. Hope you'll find it appealing. Some of it will be Mature, so pay attention to the chapter notes.

A random collection of thoughts, poems, words, whatever.

Reinard Artego the Third is the last of his clan, a Faro running from his world after the death of his Segal. He takes refuge on Egara, working at a porneo, where no one would ever expect to find a Faro.

Galen just moved to the Hephaestus Isles, accepting a job offer from his friend. The only issue is the offer comes with a house already taken by a Faro.

When the Egaro and the Faro meet, cultures collide. Reinard fears his new roommate's sexual appetites, while Galen is amazed at Reinard's standoffish attitude toward him. For a week's time, the two will have to deal with each other. Or at least try not to kill each other.

All Seth wanted was ramen. A small, androgynous, blond was not on his shopping list. Nor was an outspoken new friend and therapy. He’d obviously turned down a wrong aisle somewhere.

Noah has a great best friend, a great job, an okay car, and an awesome apartment. Things are great. Except he’s watching his life from inside the closet. Also, he has…eclectic tastes. Most of which involve lace and silk. He didn’t mean to take “niche” and run with it.

Will the closet door open? Will everyone accept Noah? Most importantly, will Seth get his ramen?

These are a few poems I wrote a few years ago.
