IT'S BEEN A BUSINESS DOING PLEASURE WITH YOU  is my autobiography of being a high profile gay escort, from early military upbringing and its clashes with my young gay identity, to tales of leaving home under threat of shotgun.  Going out into the world I made my way to find a niche of survival, only to discover soon afterwards that I had something far harder to survive, a virus called HIV.  With the lost lives of friends, lovers, and dogs, I met many in my Hollywood movie like life, famous and not so famous. In my pursuit of happiness I often found myself as shaman to many souls, some lost.  Sometimes sex was the last thing required, instead many needed to be held or touched, and to be reassured of their humanity.  This was not lost to me, I embraced it, as kindness was healing.  Rounding out my years in the oldest profession are some bits of wisdom, folly, and finally closure with my father after years of distance with his gay son.
