On Writing Men Loving Men
C. E. CaseI’ve been secretly writing men who love men for almost fifteen years. That’s probably a bit of a shock to anyone reading this who’s known me that long. Heck, it’s probably a shock to anyone who knows me through my writing but didn’t know how old I am.
Although my first venture into completing a story and allowing anyone to read it was fan fiction, my earliest work was an unfinished story about a minor-league baseball team. I’d wanted to write a story about baseball—it’s my favorite sport—and a growing friendship between two of the players. Turned out they had...
Welcome Stacy O’Steen to Supposed Crimes!
C. E. CaseI’m pleased to announce our newest author, Stacy O’Steen. Stacy comes to us from the large state of Texas, where she runs around taking care of various friends and working hard. I [Adrian] met Stacy almost two years ago for the very first time during a NaNoWriMo write-in at my favorite bar. We hit it off right away, and it’s hard to imagine that over two years has passed.

I am looking forward to reading my next novel written...

C. E. CaseOver at Bitopia, author A. M. Leibowitz discusses bisexual erasure and classification issues for bisexual charactesrs in straight or gay works.
If I want to read queer lit, I want to know it fits in that category, even if it’s space cowboy or urban fantasy or dystopian futuristic or sweet romance. My issue, though, is all the people being rendered invisible by categorizing something based on which two people are in a relationship. Bi erasure happens when we label books as “gay” or “lesbian.” Those are identities, not romantic pairing labels. A bisexual man is not automatically gay because he’s...
