Hot Blue Collars

Revised Edition. Originally published as "Blue Collar Buds".

Four tawdry tales will delight your senses and leave you deeply satisfied.

LOGGER'S DELIGHT

A logger chooses to live away from society, out in the woods, with only a bunch of men and some halfway decent food to keep him company. Some loggers are loners, preferring to live and work away from others. These 'timberbeasts' always have good reasons for wishing to be alone. Some are hotheads who would get in fights if they were around others. Others are introverted types who feel drained by other people. Some of these solitary loggers have reasons no one could fathom

Doug Hayburn is a timberbeast who prefers to stay away from the prying eyes and taunting jeers of men. His colossal member attracts too much attention. When Logan Pettigrew, a logger with quite the opposite problem, arrives on the scene, together they discover that even the largest lid can fit a very wide pot.

KWIKLUBE 5000

In the 1970s Van Nuys Boulevard in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles was the "cruising" street of choice for young drivers. Cruising was outlawed by the quasi-fascist LAPD, who saw fit to curtail freedoms if they were inconvenient, for along with the cruising came fights, accidents, and crime.

Jake "Snake" Elgin is a businessman who sought to capitalize on the car culture explosion in Los Angeles by opening an auto lube shop. He battles inner demons and outer extremities. His employees help release him from a personal hell into a new kind of heaven.

HOTSHOT

In the 1960s, powerful pickup trucks led to a new kind of trucking industry. When a man owns a pickup truck and modifies it for use on short-haul, small-payload runs, he becomes a hotshot. They're nimble and quick. When something has to be there overnight, they are a fast solution to supply chain issues, especially in oil country.

Hugh Jayness inherited a large pickup truck from his stepfather and a tiny member from his father. He loves hanging out at truck stops, giving truckers the satisfaction they crave. After reading a want-ad, Hugh realizes he can join the world of hotshot trucking, where his horizons expand beyond his imagination.

FIREHOUSE LOVERS

Many gay men are excited by the heroism and bravery of our nation's fire brigades. It doesn't hurt that they are masculine, muscular, and usually quite handsome. Rookie fireman Travis Baumholt knows he's gay, but he's not comfortable with it, even though he lives in the heart of the Castro District in San Francisco, which, even in the late 1960s, was becoming a mecca for gay men. Little by little, he is discovering who he is and where he belongs on the hierarchy of gay sex. Given his small member, big caboose, and remarkable talents, he seems most satisfied as Greek passive, French active. Enter Mike, a massive fireman with a huge problem only Travis can solve.
