Siktici
If in this biography, you are hoping to read a list of my accomplishments,
well there arent any. Im just one of those people who writes
fiction for pleasure, but continually pursues it as a profession while
I suffer another less entertaining vocation. I hope this admission doesnt
lessen my chances at publication.
I write all manner of fiction, but my first love is gay fiction.
Perhaps, Im in an ongoing catharsis, a search to find my gay self.
Yet, Im always fascinated when I later read what Ive written,
because during the process, Im not really aware of my stories
content until they are complete: During the process, Im only taking
dictation and allowing the characters, plots, and scenes to develop
themselves. This process, however, isnt always successful, as
I have a few stories still up on blocks that I have yet to fix. Other
Works by Siktici include "Meditative Technique" and "A
Boy's Fantasy, Part I".

awareness of the disease. He refocused his sexual energy into his art
and his camera became his wand of control. Jack's work has been collected
by galleries in New York and Los Angeles, and have been published in
two photographic anthologies.
