Here’s a little more about Afterglow:

Brian and River have escaped the Houses, but can they survive Los Angeles on their own? Drugs and childhood demons seem set to destroy them. Not to mention working the streets....

Is their love and Brian’s music enough to survive the ultimate test? Crisis leads to a journey across the country to face the past, to Arizona to find peace, and finally to Portland, Oregon to find a home.

Praise for Naked in the Rain:

“In Wood’s deft hands the book is like a Rorschach test, asking readers to determine whether it’s a modern subversive fairytale or a gritty post-gay drama...charming readers with its readability.”

Curve Magazine

“I am certainly recommending this book... Naked in the Rain asks some profound, disturbing and important questions.”

Just Out

“A dark look at two boys, struggling to find themselves, desperate for love... What’s most remarkable is the author’s ability to push us to explore our feelings about sexual identity.”

Hipfish

“Sometimes sensual, sometimes horrifying introspection into both human sexual depravity, and human ardor.”
