Hello! Here’s a couple photos that my friend Anthony DeAngelis took of me, to be used in promoting my book.

And I should mention that I’ve recently come out of the closet about some semi-nude photos of me by cult filmmaker Bruce LaBruce.

This happened many years ago in Pittsburgh, and the photos initially popped up in an issue of this snooty gay French magazine. I used to be a little embarrassed by them, but I’m not now. And now LaBruce put one of them on the cover of his new monograph. Click here to see it, I’m in there somewhere…

Geez! Kinda cool and kinda weird.

My life has changed completely in the last four months, and one of the more minor changes was that I got a new phone that takes pictures. Here are some that I’ve taken during this period (some are very NSFW so I’m posting them after the jump).

Today I thought this guy was totally cruising me from across the lobby at my allergy clinic but then I realized it was the cover of this magazine.

Rising sea levels could swamp sections of the Eastern Shore, eat away islands in the Chesapeake Bay and submerge long stretches of Atlantic Ocean beaches by 2100…[more]

Ocean City, Maryland is but a sliver of sand – the place already feels like it’s hanging on by a thread. Being there recently, in the dead of winter, I couldn’t get it out of my head that it is doomed. I was imagining it as a lost, submerged world when I took these pictures.

A bit dramatic, I know…

Here are pictures from a recent trip a friend and I made to the old Torrance State Hospital in Torrance, PA. I grew up around this place and it is the source of much legend and speculation. It seems that this building is not the actual hospital, but rather the staff quarters. Yes, apparently the staff lived on the hospital grounds 24 hours a day, which makes you wonder if you could tell them apart from the patients after awhile. Still, staff building or not, the place is suitably creepy and just an all-around great abandoned building.
