MM romance, written from the inside.
I'm a gay man writing MM romance from the inside — the heat, the emotion, the realness of it. I started writing because I wanted gay love stories told by someone who actually lives one, and because I believe gay men deserve to see their lives reflected in mainstream romance, not just niche corners of the internet.
My books range from slow-burn emotional intensity to high-heat enemies-to-lovers, but they share a common thread: worlds where gay life is simply the story. No trauma for sport, no apology for the heat, no explaining the love.
I write under the Stone&Ink Publishing imprint — my own imprint, named as a nod to the Stonewall Riots, with "Ink" making clear it's a writing house. I started writing off and on around 2021, but didn't find the momentum to actually publish until January 2026.
If I'm not writing, I'm probably curled up on the couch with my husband, our furbabies piled somewhere on top of us, and something trashy playing on the TV. Love Island has had a hold on me for months — I will absolutely defend a villa contestant's terrible decisions with my whole chest. My ADHD keeps me busy pretty much around the clock, so honestly, that couch is the one place my brain actually slows down. It's not glamorous, but it's mine.
Thanks for being here.
