I'm currently working on Chapter 5 of "If He Ever Cries." However, I don't have access to a computer at the moment and I'm writing on my iPad, which drives me nuts sometimes. So, the process is slower than usual. But I'm doing my best to finish the chapter soon.

I plan to release 'If He Ever Cries' one chapter every week. I wish I could do faster. (Certainly the other authors I've nagged about their publishing speeds will have their turns at kicking my ass). But that's the best I can commit to right now. So look for the next chapter next Friday.

About Me

I have a blog on tumblr. I'm a simple person, so my blog is simple. If you go to "My Writing" page on my blog, you'll find links to pictures of my characters. Let me know if you can't find them.

I tweet too.

*****

I'm Jean Roz. Inhabitant of the Caribbean and hater of people who spit on the sidewalk. Almost buddhist, almost christian, almost atheist, and almost believer. Badmouthed, optimistic, pessimistic, and with my mind always in limbo.

Sometimes I don't have enough middle fingers (for salutes, that is), but I'm mostly nice.

I'm female, straight, but hardcore pro-gay rights. You can't be my friend if you are a gay-hater.

*****
I've only recently started writing. Maybe my writing appeals to some people. Constructive criticism welcomed and wanted, please. You can be crude; I can take it! If you like my writing, let me know. If you find grammar errors, please point them out to me 'cause after reading my writing a hundred times before posting, the letters just jumble up together and I can't see errors anymore.

I like romance, tragedy, mystery, and fantasy the most. And, for some reason, I feel more compelled to read and write about gay love (boy x boy). Maybe I was gay in a past life...who knows?

Highlights: walks barefoot most of the time, loves Steve Carell, badmouthed, cat-lover but allergic to them, puzzle-solver, mom, sometimes awkward around people, sucks at making jokes, can't stand repetitive noise, strong believer in Karma, etc, etc, etc.

*****

"People should not be judged by the gender of the people they fall in love with. All people are worthy of falling in love and be free to express their love like everybody else is free to do; to kiss, hug, hold hands, and show affection in public like eveybody else; to marry, to raise a family; to fully participate in our society without the fear of being threatened, attacked, or discriminated because of what they are. Being homosexual shouldn't be something one is afraid of telling people." --Jean Roz ;)

*****

I may accept reading requests but only for novels and short stories withOUT content aimed for teenagers. I'm past that stage. Not interested unless you are J.K. Rowling or Stephenie Meyer. I'm sure there's a lot of people out there willing to read your work. But at the moment I'm not one of them.

If He Ever Cries by Jean Roz

Kaiden turned heads everywhere he went. Twenty years of sexy, smart-tongued, intelligent, goodness. But he was in love with the wrong man. The love of his life was already taken by someone he couldn't fight against. When the twists of life rip his lover off his hands, death doesn't seem like a remote solution. Until a new player joins the game, making Kaiden question what sacrifices he's willing to make for love.
