I recently posted a little snippet of some fan fiction that I had written a few years ago but never did anything with. Enjoy!

My Guest Post on DGC-Adam Lambert and Tommy Joe Ratliff “Adommy” moments.
I have mentioned Cecilia Tan and Daron’s Guitar Chronicles before. Here is the blog about it. Because Cecilia is contracted to write two novels at the same time she hasn’t had enough time to post twice a week to DGC. The solution she came up with was that she would post on Tuesdays and she would let fans post something related on Thursdays. It’s been really fun to see what the fans have come up with to post over the last 4 months. We are just about done with the fan posts and will be going back to ctan posting twice a week again. I decided to do a post about Adam Lambert and Tommy Joe Ratliff. Check out my fan post by clicking the link below.

Magic University, Harry Potter slash fiction and Daron’s Guitar Chronicles.
Here is a video of Cecilia Tan reading an excerpt from her Magic University series. The Magic University series is kind of like if Harry Potter had taken place in college and sex was magic. If you ever wished Harry Potter had been a bit more of an adult book you’ll love this series. She reads a sex scene from The Siren and the Sword (Book 1 of Magic University) then reads a short story she wrote called Draco the Wonder Ferret which is Harry Potter slash fiction. (If you don’t know what slash fiction is google it. And if you are curious here is her statement on fan fiction.) Draco the Wonder Ferret is both hot and hysterically funny which is not an easy combination to pull off. Enjoy.
WARNING: NSFW-Probably not something you want to be listening to at work.
My first introduction to Cecilia’s work was Daron’s Guitar Chronicles which I absolutely love. Daron is one of those characters that feels like he is actually one of your friends. I find myself wanting to tell people about what he is up to as if we all hang out together. It helps that due to the wonders of the internet that I can chat with Daron in comments and on Twitter etc. The story is an ongoing web serial. The storyline starts off in 1986 and Daron is now up to the early 1990s in the telling of his story. DGC is a wonderful coming-of-age story. Cecilia does a fantastic job of showing what growing up gay in the 1980s music scene was like. And DGC has been a really fun way to reminisce about the music of the 80s (and now 90s) as well as just remembering what life was like back then. Here is a short video Cecilia did a few years ago for a Kickstarter campaign that explains a bit about DGC.
The Kickstarter campaign was successful and you can now buy Daron’s Guitar Chronicles as real books. You can also get them as ebooks or read it for free online. If you choose to read it for free but would still like to support Cecilia she lists a few ways to donate here.
