Read it & send it to that one friend. You know which one.

Hey longtime readers! Remember "36 Fetishes Every Gay Man Needs to Know" from 2016 in @TheAdvocateMag? One of my most-read pieces, even 10 yrs later.
I wrote this new version to be more helpful for fetish beginners. Read it and all updated sex 101 pieces in @outmagazine ⛓️👊🏼🔥

This is the book @KirkusReviews called "not for squeamish readers" and @eBARnews called "akin to Kerouac". It's (reportedly) banned in the UK. It's my best, proudest, rawest work I've done.
Limited stock, don't wait. #gaybooks

It’s hard to make a living as a writer: fellowship money dries up, freelance rates keep dropping, and book advances aren’t what they used to be. Our new issue features a forum on the side hustles that journalists, novelists, and poets take on to survive.

I never, ever saw myself being named on the Out100 list. Year after year, this list has been a catalogue of the most important queer voices. I’ve always been humbled by them and in awe of them. So this is a surreal experience. Thank you, @outmagazine!

Last night at Eagle, a friend searched for my book on Amazon and told me I was (again!) the #1 bestseller in this category. I had dropped from the top spot and felt certain I wouldn’t go back. Thank you 🌹

This was one of my favorite things I’ve done. @DamonLJacobs is a treasure trove of wisdom and simply a delight to talk to. Watch our soapy, naked talk about books, faith, cum, poop, body standards, and more on “Tub Talks with Damien”!

Today on Tub Talks: @BadAlexCheves "confesses" his Love Is A Beast - as well as his takes on body shaming, bottom mishaps, the fear of queer sex, pushing sexual boundaries, if God exists, and so so much more! Join us:
