about me

I'm 20. I'm fabulous, and I'm a (currently) unpublished writer living in Henderson, NV.I'm a type A personality with analytical tendencies and gold star gay. I've been writing since I was twelve years old and first attempted to get published at thirteen. It didn't go well. Since then I've been on a (seemingly never ending) quest to become published in what I call my Race to Fame. And openly refer to myself as a famewhore. You can check out the Race now at my blog/website listed below or my twitter @Racewood.
And just for the record. I am a guy.
I like almost anything but as a rule I do not care for:
Historical Fiction
Christian Fiction
Non-Fiction (of any kind)

Note: To anyone who has messaged me I'm sorry that I have not messaged back. I've been crazy busy with school and writing. I'm not ignoring you. :D I will try to respond and read as much of your stuff as I can.

favourite books

My favorite books are the Harry Potter series, Sex and the City, Wicked, and Stephen King's Memoir: on Writing and the Tales of the City series. I haven't read quite as much as I've written... and not as many published books as fanfictions. : )

A.J. Race

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger, I think I'd rather it killed me. I'm not afraid of death, it's life that scares me.


A psychological thriller set in an alternate reality America where being gay is very much in the majority and being straight is in some places an offense punishable by imprisonment or worse. Following the story of Roger Thompson, a father who's recently lost his son because of his sexuality and his search to find his son's killer. But when memories of the last year slowly begin to surface in Roger's mind, can he handle it? Or will the knowledge of the killers real identity bring him closer to his own mental undoing?

UPDATE: Alright I've been working on updates for like EVER but I got sidetracked with another novel that I've been working on since 03 and that's kinda taking top priority right now so... it might take a minute. Changes are MAJOR though so it's exciting.

Hannah- My initial thought when I read the long pitch was... that's a lot of voices in the air... remembering his life by so many different people isn't an easy thing to juggle but you do it in such a way that I find myself fascinated by the story.

Marj- I've only read the first chapter so far, but I do hope to read more when I have more time. The story is very well written and thought provoking (which I feel is often important in literature and sometimes lacking in a lot of stories today). I'm very choosy when it comes to the stories that I r... view book

Joy- While I appreciate this comment, I've been trying to analyze your statement and frankly I've come up blank. Can you explain it to me? -A.J. view book

While I will agree that it could use some editing as far as sentence structuring the overall flow of the story is profound. The short choppy paragraphs almost force you to read further. It's a good start, and with a bit of work this could possibly become a great tale. Nice work. A.J. view book

This is perhaps one of the more bizarre stories I've read so far, yet oddly it fascinates me. The bizarre and somewhat questionable sentence structure... I feel compelled to read more... perhaps this was the intention. At any rate, I'm putting this on my watchlist for now. All the best. A.J.Race... view book
