Straightened

IMPORTANT NOTE

IMPORTANT NOTE

This is not a novel that attempts to answer the question Is homosexuality right or wrong. Whatever your moral beliefs about homosexuality, I fully expect you to hold those same beliefs once you reach the end of this novel. However, I do hope that what you read in Straightened will lead to more open discussions, deeper empathy, and greater unity — three things that seem too often to be lacking in the homosexuality debate.

Please note that just because somebody in my novel espouses a particular point of view, that doesn’t mean it is what I personally believe. I refuse to write preachy fiction, and I’m convinced that if we all agreed on every single hot-button issue out there, the world would be a boring place, and this novel would be void of all suspense and danger.

As it is, this novel is filled with plenty of suspense as well as danger, and I hope you enjoy it for its storyline as much as anything else you may glean from it.
