Gaypride Stories

Winter has away of making lonely people notice each other. Gregory is trying to build a future before life hardens him completely. With a prison job application in one pocket and a pack of cigarettes in the other, he drifts through cold city nights carrying more uncertainty than hope. Then a torn coat pocket leads him into Whitmore Tailors - a small shop glowing warmly against the snow. Inside, he meets Daniel Whitmore. Quietly observant and impossible to forget, Daniel repairs more than fabric. What begins as a simple encounter between two strangers slowly unfolds into something deeper: late-night phone calls, shared silences, unspoken fears, and the fragile comfort of being truly seen by another person. But Gregory's world is pulling him toward something darker. As he steps closer to a career inside the prison system, the weight of violence, isolation, and emotional exhaustion threatens to consume the softer parts of himself Daniel seems determined to protect. Set against snowy streets, dim apartment lights, and the timeless warmth of a tailor shop, The Whitmore Tailors is a deeply emotional story about intimacy, masculinity, loneliness, and the terrifying vulnerability of love. Some things are stitched together slowly. Others unravel all at once.

A compilation of poems reflecting on the moments that set my soul ablaze, the moments that dimmed it and the ones I look forward to. Enjoy.

Just a bunch of quotes from my friends and family

Carmen was so ready for a two-week getaway at a luxurious resort prior his sister's wedding. Sun, cocktails, and absolutely no reminders of his disastrous love life. Except fate-cruel, petty fate-decided to throw in one little problem: Kasimir Keighley. The best man. His lifelong nemesis. The human equivalent of an overpriced espresso-bitter, way too strong, and annoyingly addictive.

But between stolen glances, unexpected truce moments, and a very inconvenient attraction, he starts to wonder... is it hate, or is it something much, much worse?
