Hi folks; I am semi-retired these days, now single and live in Ipswich, Qld Australia, but thinking of going to live in Europe when things settle down. I love to write and have done so all my life, never published, though i did compile a collection of short-ish stories for Amazon recently. Sold about six copies so far, which I am sure all went to family members. Also working on a couple of novels; one a gay romance, the other a semi-autobiographical piece. Have placed a number of stories here, some gay, others not, receptive to commentary on all- I can only learn. Just recently heard of this community; keen to see where it takes me!
