Dear Author, Please use this excerpt as a prompt:O’ God it’s wonderful to get out of bed and drink too much coffee and smoke too many cigarettes and love you so much—from Steps by Frank O’Hara Photo Description: Extreme close-up of a handsome young man with beautiful blue eyes and a sexy bit of scruff. He’s exhaling a drag from a cigarette, the smoke curls around his face, framing his jaw and pouty mouth. His expression leaves no doubt he’s looking at something—or someone—he’d like to get close to. This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's "Love’s Landscapes" event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story. This story may contain sexually explicit content and is intended for adult readers.
