To Kill a Cockroach: An LGBTQ+ Memoir

“… in the movie (and the novel) To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus Finch, tells his children that they can shoot all kinds of birds, but never a mockingbird, because the mockingbird does not harm anything dedicating himself to singing. Based on that anecdote, Osvaldo Calixto Amador recreates his life in To Kill a Cockroach. This memoir is marked by the Cuban Revolution, exile, the discovery of his homosexuality, the devastation of AIDS…and the search for self-love and artistic expression. Intense and full of emotion, this autobiography of a man and an artist will captivate the reader with its message of hope, improvement, and celebration of existence despite all obstacles. A vivid book…”

Above & Beyond: Radio Silence – Historical Fiction

Above and Beyond: radio silence is a historical fiction account of an airman’s World War II experience. While much focus is given to Generals and those who rise to glory in fierce battles, this story focuses on a select group of airmen. Those who flew in unarmored, unarmed aircraft behind enemy lines, over battles—to drop troops, supplies, and evacuate wounded. This story is based on my father’s flight records, his notes, and his stories. The events actually happened, but much of the personal detail is based on speculation and interpretation; the backdrop of war is historical.

Those who served in World War II grew up in the shadow of the great depression, many had nothing but their freedom. Freedom was enough to risk dying for, so they volunteered to go into the unknown to face the terrors of an enemy war machine fiercer than the world had ever known. 

Our story revolves around the formation of the 60th Troop Carrier Group and drafting of the Douglas DC-3 into combat. The DC-3 proved very quickly to be a workhorse or flying mule and became designated in the military as a C-53. Orders soon came into Douglas to produce a military modified version, the C-47 and C-47A. These troop transports and crews trained in the British Isles in preparation for the invasion of North Africa, Operation Torch. In North Africa the transport teams took quick training in the use of CG-4A “Waco” gliders. The combination of paratroop drops and gliders would be involved in Operation Husky, the invasion of Sicily.

The story moves on to the night missions into the mountains of Yugoslavia, where supply drops and night landings into torch-lit meadows took place.

This story follows the effects of these events and war in general on average service men and women. Real people serve, real families wait back home, war affects everyone, and it is our mission to document the sacrifices those who serve make. Never forget why we have what we have, why we are a free people.

Our current world was brought about by each individual participant, not just generals and politicians. There is more to history than dates and events, there are emotions, feelings, fear, love, and hate.

The Voyages of Trueblood Cay – Romantasy

AudioFile Earphones Award Winner – Fantasy (April 2024)

“Every sentence is another piece of a poem, the characters are all heroes in every story you’ve ever loved, and the world–building is absolutely phenomenal.” —Kate Douglas, author of Wolf Tales

Pelippé Trueblood is on the voyage of a lifetime and hosting a temperamental, half-man half-horse onboard his ship. He just might end up killing his difficult guest. Or kissing him.

Raised by his father on the mighty ship Cay, he’s chosen at nineteen for a perilous voyage predicted in ancient prophecy: find the lost Tree of Life and anchor her branches back to the sky. Young and unseasoned, Trueblood fears the gods may have picked the wrong man for the job. Worse, scripture demands he be accompanied by the beautiful, brooding Fen il-Kheir. Nothing in Trueblood’s life at sea has prepared him for this dangerous new crew member, nor the feelings he plants in Trueblood’s heart.

Fen is a kheiron–a creature with the ability to shift between man and horse. With his dark past, his distrust of humans and his contempt for prophecy, Fen proves a reluctant passenger who could jeopardize not only the voyage, but the very future of the world. As the journey progresses, Fen finds himself more and more drawn to the Cay’s charismatic commander, bringing the kheiron closer to everything his human nature longs for, and everything the beast in him fears.
