Morgan Richter’s Lonely Satellite is available for your Kindle for free today on Amazon. “While fleeing from a gang of marauders, Laurie Sparks, a beautiful young monk with an appetite for the good life and a knack for finding trouble, seeks refuge within a sinister subterranean church and inadvertently exposes the dangerous secrets of his past. Laurie’s adventures take him from desert wastelands to the decaying ruins of once-great cities, from seedy strip clubs and casinos to glamorous yachts on the Pacific and luxurious Park Avenue penthouses. In between nursing a whopping crush on his handsome traveling companion, Jonathan, and dodging the attentions of lechers, miscreants and murderers, Laurie yearns for clean sheets and room service and dreams of becoming the first television star of the post-apocalyptic age.”

And here’s The Weekly ShoutOUT™. Each week we’re going to focus on one out athlete/performer and feature a daily pic and career timeline. We’ll be showcasing the big names, but also the lesser-known gay celebs who deserve more recognition. This week we give a ShoutOUT to … Michael Willett.

Closing out our week with Michael, he’s currently starring in the hit MTV show Faking It, and here he is from PaleyFest last month talking about Season Two.



We covered the 90′s once before, so let’s try it again … with the 100 Greatest Top Ten Hits By 90′s Female Artists. There are only two rules: They all hit the Billboard Pop Top Ten, and they’re all from solo female artists or groups with female lead vocalists. Sure, you’ll hear the expected “Justify My Love” and “My Heart Will Go On,” but you’ll also hear songs I’m sure you haven’t thought of since the 90′s.

Ay #96 is “You’ll See” by Madonna. She has more songs than any other artist on this list, and we’ll start off with the sequel-of-sorts to “Take A Bow.” From her collection of ballads Something To Remember, “You’ll See” peaked at #6 in December 1995.
