hiv-aids - Stories

Today, with modern treatment and prevention, we often forget about AIDS and the toll it took upon the gay community. At the end of a long trip, Robert's final stopover is Minneapolis. There, he encounters a friend of a friend who had fallen to AIDS twenty-five years earlier. This is a sad story, and was difficult to write, and I've kept it on the back burner for over a year. Dedicated to a close friend who passed thirty-two years ago on his favorite holiday, Halloween.

This story completes a trilogy, following "A Class Reunion" and "Love, In the Ashes of Time."

John is a artist and he hasn't painted anthingj in month's. It's Alex his partner and lover who is dieing of Aids. Is there any hope left in the world!

Before Grithen was the guarded, stoic vampire readers met in What Didn’t Kill Me Became Me, he was Grit. A loud-mouthed, fire-eyed ACT UP activist during the HIV/AIDS crisis in 1980s New York, screaming for the dying and daring the world to listen.

This is the story of who he was. What he fought for. The best friend he loved... and lost.

The night that turned him into the ash of the man who once burned so bright.

This isn’t a happy story.

But it is Grit's story.

This is a coming out story that occurred in 1989.

Consolation prizes come in many guises.

And some need serious consideration.

There's a new friendship in the offing and a new dimension to an old one to think about but everybody's secrets are safe - for now . . . .

The start of one man's journey into the entertainment business and perhaps an on-going relationship too.

This is the 'prequel' to W.T.F. Just happened - which I thought was complete in itself but then some readers on here and a few friends asked for 'what happened next' and the seed was sown.

Being gay has always had its pitfalls, but nothing could have prepared us for the devastation of the last two decades of the twentieth century. Michael is very sick, but there is one more thing he feels the need to do as he lays in bed waging the biggest fight of his life. As an activist, he still wants to be of some use, no matter how little. It's not his nature to give up until he has to. This is a story about PRIDE, and what it represents to our community. Pride month means many things to many people. For some it is a parade and a chance to celebrate, but for others, it holds different connotations.

History is written by the victors, the winners, those in power, those at the top of society. Who tells the stories of those groups forgotten by history?

For centuries LGBTQ histories were hidden histories, histories forgotten by the mainstream, histories passed down by word-of-mouth. It has only been in recent decades that scholarly works have been written about gay history.

This collection of stories are about gay history, stories that focus on different events from gay history, events that helped shape our gay world, stories that cover so many different emotions.

A spinoff of the "Gone From Daylight" vampire series, this story tells the tale of a committed friendship that is held together, even beyond conflict. Even beyond death. So enjoy, and let me know what you think when you finish reading! K?
