Hello my fellow story lovers, I'm Joseph. I'm married to a wonderful woman, and we have one son. I live a quiet and private life, so saying things here is not my cup of tea. But I wanted to thank you for buying, or considering buying any of my work. My hope is to build a family of friends, going through this life we all have to go through, with the small exception of maybe a few hours away from it, to escape into a story, that I'm hoping will become part of your being, as it already has mine. These characters are so real to me, I take considerably time in thought, before any words are written. I may see something as we shop, that triggers a scene, or maybe a call I get, may give me insight to something I'm struggling with, so I take real life situations in all my writings. I'll be setting up a Facebook account, so you will have the means to send me suggestions, desires, and thoughts of the direction this story is taken. I have been working on "The Thanksgiving Week, book two" and should have it available soon. Thank you again. I hope to become good friends with you throughout the coming years. J. David

I have created/written Beau to Beau fictional stories of Male Love with sincerity to inspire gay men to embrace their sexuality and to enjoy their lives to the fullest, as is deservedly theirs to be realized. These stories are affirmations of the lives of gay men, a joyous celebration of the self as an entire person, not solely a gay person, which seems to be a “category” into which gay men have been thrust by the heterosexual community. This gay person categorization has been allotted with great negativity, seemingly to invoke a sense of shame into its inhabitants. Shame is not the gay man’s to be borne. Shame is the lot of the ignorant!~ My books are also available in print at my website - www.beautobeau.com. ~B.K. Wright~ Beau to Beau has a new author, B.J. Scott, who writes very XXX rated erotic gay short stories. They can be found at 1erotic ebooks, 1romance ebooks, and all romance ebooks, with full steamy excerpts on those sites.

Author bio:
I started writing in 2009 on a whim - I heard about a contest on an erotic writing website and thought, what the hell? It was the beginning of a rewarding and deeply satisfying period in my life; I began writing regularly for the site, and the feedback and encouragement I received there gave me the courage to strike out on my own and try to make a real go of this. I've been a story teller for most of my life - when I was a young child, I would often dream up complex and continuous narratives for book and television characters that I came across. Some of their story arcs lasted for years, with me adjusting their character development and responses as I grew older and more sophisticated in my thinking. I hope this doesn't make me sound crazy. I penned my first "novel" in 2009 - a silly and nonsensical thing about two gay guys, a a sex shop, a vandalized Greenpeace office, missing water coolers, and terrorists. It gets more and more ridiculous every time I reread it, but I can't bring myself to get rid of it - I love it for it's unashamed cuckoolander quality, and reminds me of how much fun it is to write badly. After that, I got more serious about creating a real story - a story that would affect people and make them happy to be alive and reading. I hope I can achieve that.

Author bio:
I have created/written Beau to Beau fictional stories of Male Love with sincerity to inspire gay men to embrace their sexuality and to enjoy their lives to the fullest, as is deservedly theirs to be realized. These stories are affirmations of the lives of gay men, a joyous celebration of the self as an entire person, not solely a gay person, which seems to be a “category” into which gay men have been thrust by the heterosexual community. This gay person categorization has been allotted with great negativity, seemingly to invoke a sense of shame into its inhabitants. Shame is not the gay man’s to be borne. Shame is the lot of the ignorant!~ My books are also available in print at my website - www.beautobeau.com. ~B.K. Wright~ Beau to Beau has a new author, B.J. Scott, who writes very XXX rated erotic gay short stories. They can be found at 1erotic ebooks, 1romance ebooks, and all romance ebooks, with full steamy excerpts on those sites.
