A Heated Rivalry: Who Owns the Gay Love Story?
Description
Gay romance is having a moment. The bestselling books and TV phenomenon that is Heated Rivalry has brought stories about men falling in love into the mainstream. But who’s writing these stories, who’s reading them, and whose experiences are being represented?
Join Australian author Daniel de Lorne for a fascinating exploration of gay and M/M romance fiction, its history, its largely female authorship and audience, and the evolving conversation around masculinity, fantasy and queer representation.
Drawing on his own experience as a gay romance author, Daniel explores what the genre’s popularity means for writers, readers and the future of queer love stories.
