I am an author of M/M erotic romance and an advocate of the LBGTQ+ community. I write under my real name - A.M. Snead - and pen name CJ Bishop. Though my books are "erotic", that is not what drives the stories or the characters. I like to address the hard issues and, hopefully, help bring awareness, change lives, and change minds. My books can be intense, so I understand that they may not be for everyone. I believe that God's love covers "all" and I try to insert that belief into my books, oftentimes with subtlety, other times more openly. I enjoy hearing from my readers and learning their stories, if they wish to share. It touches me deeply to learn that my books have impacted a reader's life in a positive way. It inspires me to continue doing what I'm doing.
