As of this moment Amazon is having a huge sale on all my books, especially on their Kindle editions. (Authors have no control over when, why, or at what price Amazon puts their books on sale. All I know is the sales don’t last long—and that I love them, since I get paid the same either way.) Details below. (more…) Read more

Right off the bat let me confess that what I find irresistibly appealing about Kevin Miller’s new documentary Hellbound? is that I was supposed to be in it.

Yo, friends. So just to let you know, I won’t be putting up here any new posts for several more days yet. About two weeks ago a guy wrote asking me to say a word or two on behalf of the group he represented. While reading his letter I felt that deeply resonant CLONG you hear/feel when out of nowhere your life becomes infinitely larger than you. So, you know: sudden redirect. (more…) Read more

A week or so ago Ting Lin, whom I wrote about in A Taiwanese Christian Lesbian Everyone Should Know, sat down to write a letter to her father. When finished she wasn’t sure what to do with the letter. Rather than mail it to her father she decided to publish it on her blog, which she knows her father reads. (more…) Read more
