Hello
Hi there! I'm Hollis Shiloh. I've been here before to read about publishers and self-publishing. Always interesting and informative threads! Now I've joined, and I hope I can learn more and meet some great authors.

Oh, and my writing genre is sweet gay romance or m/m romance, depending on what you want to call it. My first released story is in my signature.

Hello, and welcome! I don't write gay romance (historical fantasy here) but some of my characters are queer, including my MMC.
