He is working on several projects, including a television series based on his stage play Gone Are The Days.His autobiography It Was Too Soon Before... from Lethe Press, won the prestigious Elisa Rolle Rainbow Award for Best Gay Biography or Memoir, 2012, and tied for third place in the Best Gay Book of the Year, 2012.All Together won a “Lammy” from The Lambda Literary Foundation, as Best Gay Erotica, 2011.view less
