Time After Time/Soap World

I am the author of the novel HIDDEN FIRES, which was published by Deja Vu Publications in April 2009. I have a short story "Social Studies" included in the gay literary anthology FLESH TO FLESH, which was edited by author Lee Hayes and published by Strebor Books. I also have published my short stories and poetry in SHOUTOUT!, URBAN DIALOGUE, WRITES OF PASSAGE USA and SBC. I am working on HOOKER HERITAGE, the revised version of HIDDEN FIRES, the sequel BASTARDS AND BITCHES, and five other novels: HIT 'EM UP STYLE, PEACHES AND CREAM, EPISODES, GAY GOSSIP, and DEATH IN DAYTIME.  I have been a soap opera junkie whore since 1982 at the age of five when I was introduced to "All My Children" by my late grandmother, Sally C. Peebles, and my late aunt, Rogina Peebles.  I have been hooked on everything soap opera ever since.  I watched and enjoyed Ryan's Hope, Loving, One Life to Live, General Hospital, Days of Our Lives, Generations, The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful, As the World Turns, Guiding Light, Santa Barbara, Port Charles, Tribes, Fifteen, Dallas, Knots Landing, Dynasty, Falcon Crest, The Colbys, Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, Sisters, Passions, Another World, and One Tree Hill.  I have read Soap Opera Digest and Soap Opera Weekly throughout the years.  I love to watch SoapNet.  I once wrote a Masters thesis on the history of African-Americans in the soap opera industry from 1926 to 2005 called Chocolate Suds.
