I just discovered that LELA MAE, a story I wrote, is online, along with the rest of the anthology, BOYHOOD, GROWING UP MALE, edited by Franklin Abbott.  The stories and essays in the anthology are, if anything, more relevant today than they were when the book was first published.  I’m speaking of the recent suicides of young gay men:  Raymond Chase, Billy Lucas, Asher Brown, Seth Walsh and Tyler Clementi. I imagine I feel what parents felt after the Columbine shootings, I can’t shake it.

This website of mine that I love is an antique, it was written with code from the mid-nineties that is no longer used today, so it doesn’t always do auto links.  Either click the highlighted link below or copy and paste it. 

Either way you’ll get to BOYHOOD, GROWING UP MALE, an anthology of men remembering and pondering their boyhoods.

Every man has been a boy.

It Gets Better.
