Closets are for dandy clothes—not for gay essays or fiction In the newest edition of Best Gay Stories, editor Steve Berman has selected confessions and stories that range in scope from “S”—sensational—to “XL”— a personal remembrance of the Stonewall Riots; a tale of awkward first love; the allure of Tadzio for not only Gustav von Aschenbach but every reader of Thomas Mann; the wisdom of Auntie Mame as one man’s banner—among other explorations of our community’s desires, heartaches and wants. The labels on these stories are designer, the stitching strong, and the fit, you will find, is perfect. Anthony McDonald / Paul Lisicky / Jeff Mann / Nowell Briscoe / G.

Some tidbits about me... I turned down a scholarship to Miskatonic University because I heard of the high rate of incidents against the student population. I briefly worked for Omni Consumer Products in their Marketing Department. Great benefits, nice cafeteria, sadly too prone to executive whim. Last year I stayed at the noted Mauna Pele resort in Hawaii. The accommodations were impressive but my traveling companion disappeared soon after wanting to attend a pig roast. I've slept with one minor porn star and with a guy who later became one. And I happen to have written some fanfic that inspired the memorable holodeck scene in Star Trek: Hidden Frontiers episode "Vigil"
