Writer no longer needed.
Saturday, March 31st, 2007Because unfortunately, you’re stuck with me.
Greetings and a very early good morning from Darkside Rainbow on 451 Press. I’m your new GBLTQ blogger, Adrian Hutchinson (call me Adri, it’ll make all our lives easier), and I’ve dropped in to make your life just a little bit more fabulous.
All right, maybe not. I’m out and I’m proud, if not particularly loud, but I’m a pretty down-to-earth guy next door. Nice to meet you, drop by for a cup of my patented triple-black Doom Coffee, and we’ll talk about who’s in the closet, oh-no-he-didn’t, and the latest in the ever-controversial front of GBLTQ politics, news, and issues.
You know we’ve all got issues, honey.
One a more serious front, if you’d like to know a little bit more about me: I’m a professional web journalist for another online publication, and when I’m not doing that I’m working on writing and editing my first novel. I’ll admit that I have a bit of an agenda there: I’m trying to break into mainstream science fiction with prominently gay protagonists and antagonists, but without being classified as “gay literature” because the story isn’t about being gay. After all, our lives don’t revolve solely around our sexual identity. Why should the gay and lesbian heroes and heroines of our literature do the same?
Hm, what else, what else? I’m originally from the New Orleans area, just a little brown-sugar boy from the Big Easy who packed up and relocated to Houston, TX back in 2000 so I could attend the Art Institute of Houston and graduate with a degree in Animation, Art, and Design. I’ve been living in Houston for seven years now and I still couldn’t tell you how to avoid getting lost on the 610 Loop, but I can tell you where to get a good steak, a better martini, or the worst dye job that you’d never want inflicted on your poor, unsuspecting hair.
Stick around for more from a cynical and caffeine-fueled geek-boy who’s probably still just a little too 80s for his own good.
I don’t always know when to shut my mouth, but at least you’ll never be in doubt as to what I’m thinking.
