Woof: A Novel

Job leads, prescription medication, and days until eviction are all in short supply for Carl Danielson. His aspiring filmmaker of an ex-boyfriend, Dwayne, shows up a year after their breakup, offering his destitute former flame $25,000 for the lead in a low-budget feature. There's a catch, though-the film is based on their relationship. Soon, it's "lights, camera, chaos" as Carl and Dwayne expose the past year of their separate lives to one another-the broken, nightmarish secrets culminating in a gut-wrenching finale even Hollywood could never imagine.

''Imagine your ex asking you to star in a documentary movie detailing the downfall of your relationship and you still won't predict the emotional and psychosexual places Woof goes. It's like a found footage film turned sadomasochistic gay bear fiction.'' --Daniel W. Kelly, Boys, Bears & Scares blog
