What can readers expect to find in Love Notes to Men Who Don’t Read, and how does it compare to your debut novel Exit Through the Wound?
Love Notes is a funny book about some serious things but also some frivolous things. Both books are similar in style and they’re meant to be entertaining, just in a dark-satire kind of way. There’s a specific type of tragicomedy that I’m amused by and I think suits gay-themed story telling. It’s also a book for every gay man who’s sent a random friend request to a stranger on Facebook, for everyone who’s liked 12 pictures of some guy they fancy on Instagram before following them and unfollowing them just to get his attention, and for everyone who’s gone on three first dates on the same day, sleeping with at least two of them. It’s about all the desperate, awkward things that we do.
How autobiographical are the anecdotes and stories?
