Less than 30 days now until the anticipated release of “Blue Notes” on December 30th! This story is loosely based on my own experiences living in France as a teenager, and was inspired by a trip to Paris last January (yes, Paris in January is still lovely!). You can read an excerpt – Chapter One in its entirety here: http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/2848…
And while you’re waiting, you may want to read, “Knowing,” which was written as part of the Goodreads Gay-Straight Alliance’s “Traveling to Better” story project. The short story, written in response to a reader’s prompt of “Am I gay or am I straight?” is available as a free read here: http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/2824… You’ll get a bit more of Jason Greene’s background growing up in a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio.
Until then, check out the giveaway on Goodreads on the book page (about halfway down) here. Enter to win a beautiful paperback copy of the book from Dreamspinner Press (and they ARE gorgeous, DSP’s paperbacks!). More giveaways to come over the next 4 weeks, as well, so stay tuned!
