Boy Meets Boy

Boy Meets Boy by Lawrence Schimel (Editor), Dean Durber (Contributor)

From the dates-from-hell to love-at-first-sight, Boy Meets Boy is the ultimate rumination about romance, dating, and/or sex for the modern gay man. This collection of observations, anecdotes, essays, wishful thinking, and out-and-out lies celebrate and bemoan every experience that collective comprise that mixed blessing called "dating". Ranging in tone from cute and romantic to bitchy and hilarious, with contributions from Matthew Rettenmund, Barry Lowe, Michael Lassell, D. Travers Scott, David Feinberg, Kerry Bashford, Barry Lowe, and Larry Duplechan, Boy Meets Boy is touching, amusing, heartwarming, and laugh out loud funny as is memorializes (and viciously mocks) the absurd situations, embarrassing moments, and the (all too rare) limerance that occurs when...well...Boy Meets Boy.

This anthology includes "Sibling Rivalry" by Dean Durber

Current Projects

I am currently working on my doctorate exploring the construction of the homosexual as an oppressor of non-normalised homosexual sex.  I am also interested in the social control of sexual activity through the demand for confessional debate.

Beyond sex, I am also working on theories relating to the conflict between the ideals and practices of "Generation X".

In my fiction work, I am awaiting publication of my first novel, Johnny, Come Home; I am working on a second novel and a collection of short stories exploring forbidden desires.
