I am a horrible, horrible person who writes about men (and sometimes boys) get it on with other man (and sometimes boys). I feel no remorse or shame for posting stories that's only collective redeeming quality is that someone may read them and, inspired by the lack of actual plot, be forced to write something with more content that straight out gay smut.

And I it like that way.

I take stroies off every now and then to keep the list reasonable, so if you can't find a story or you're interested in reading more or just prefer reading on LJ, then here is a link:
