Thomas, B. G.: - B.G. Ben Thomas lives in Kansas City with his husband of more than a decade and their delightful dogs Sarah Jane and Oliver. He is blessed to have a daughter as well as many extraordinary friends. Ben loves romance, comedies, fantasy, science fiction, and even horror-as far as he is concerned, as long as the stories are entertaining and about people, it doesn't matter the genre. He has gone to literature conventions his entire adult life where he's been lucky enough to meet many of his favorite writers. They have inspired him to create his own stories; it is where he finds his joy. In the nineties, he wrote for gay adult magazines but stopped because the editors wanted all sex without plot. The sex is never as important as the characters, he says. Who cares what they are doing if we don't care about them? But then he discovered the growing male/male romance market and began writing again. He submitted a novella and was thrilled when it was accepted in four days. Since then the romantic tales have poured out of him. Leap, and the net will appear is his personal philosophy and his message. It is never too late, he testifies. Pursue your dreams. They will come true!
