New Releases


Taste Test: Blind Dates.

This mini-anthology of three short, m/m stories was released by Torquere Press last month. My story, The Cure, is included. It's about a man that is set up on a blind date with someone who at first seems to be all wrong but everything turns out to be oh, so right.

Coming Soon

Handyman. This is a solo m/m novella that I have written for Torquere Press' Arcana line. It's based on the tarot card Page of Cups and the concept of an unexpected romance coming from a very unlikely source. Ever had a crush on someome that shows up to fix your hot water heater or put in a new outlet? Ever fantasize about just what could happen if you fessed up? Then this story is definitely for you.

Handyman will be available in July from Torquere Press.

Bulldog says:

Those who like to read about the more playful side of attraction will enjoy this delightful story. Well done to Ms. Payne for creating something a little different.

Fun Stuff

• Author Rec: This month I'm sending you to visit Chris Owen. I know, I know. You're saying, Jodi! It's tacky to send us to visit your co-writer! Well, maybe. But the fact is that Chris is an excellent author with a huge and broad repertoire of genres and characters and you won't be disappointed by the visit.

• Website Rec: I'm always looking for what's new in GLBT literature. If you haven't already, you should check out Prizm Books. It's a new press dedicated to books for GLBTQ youth.
