“Why can’t there be just one place for gay kids, where we don’t have to hide who we are? Hell, straight people have the whole rest of the world! They go around holding hands and kissing and talking about ‘my-girlfriend-thisâ€� and ‘my-boyfriend-that.â€� And they say we shove our lifestyle in their faces? That’s a laugh!”

Thanks for letting me know. And yeah, I think I *write* the books to relive a life I wasn't quite able to experience myself.
P.S. I loved writing about Seattle. It's a great city (even if it's getting, uh, crowded and expensive!)
