The Question Game

Part of the Don't Read in the Closet Events series

Dear Author,

THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW EVER~~ :D But I want to know what happens when the cameras aren't around. Write me a story about different types of gay men living in the same urban community: the conflicts, the flirtation, the ~drama~ You are free to (in fact ENCOURAGED to) break all the rules of romance: No HEA? no problem. Cheating? Bring it on! Experiments with girls? A-Okay with me. If you must focus on a main pairing I'd like to see a combination that defies stereotypes ... like a grizzly bear topped by a flaming queen~~ But everything else is up to you!

Photo Description:A group of friends, one girl, five guys, stand against a wall waiting for the photo to be shot. The group is very different, but they are obviously very close. The nature of how they relate to one another, and what journeys their relationships have been through are just a few of the questions one might have looking at them.

This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's "Love is Always Write"event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story.
