The Lying Liars | Chapter 7 | Ricky and the Lies We Believe About Each Other and Our Future Together.

A borrowed truck. A first date with no destination. Three failed hookup spots, a Walmart parking lot, a boat ramp full of drunken rednecks, an angry father, and one universe that seems absolutely determined not to let two men have sex. Ricky starts as a late-night attempt to end a dry spell and turns into something much stranger: a story about borrowed confidence, drugs, bad timing, missed chances, and the version of another person we can carry around long after the actual relationship has disappeared. Years later, Ricky suddenly appears online again. This time there’s a car, there’s gas, there’s money—and finally, there’s nowhere else they need to be. Except neither of them is quite the person who showed up that first night. Funny, messy, explicit, and unexpectedly tender, “Ricky” is about the date that never quite happened—and why some almost-relationships stay with us anyway.

The Lying Liars | Chapter 1 (3 of 3). Tommy and the Lies They Tell You to Get in the Door | July 2026

Tommy first appears on a street corner. What begins as a sexual transaction becomes something harder to define: part friendship, part rescue attempt, part addiction, and part story the narrator tells himself about what Tommy needs - and what he might still be able to save. But Tommy is not always abusive. Sometimes, he is affection and a caretaker in his own right, and sometimes he is unexpectedly intimate and suggestive. But when you think it's going right, and you think you've got yourself figured out in this world, Tommy smacks you back. Tommy lies, disappears, returns, and asks for help without always accepting it. The narrator keeps trying to assign meaning to each encounter, even when survival, loneliness, drugs, and immediate need may explain far more than either man wants to admit. “Tommy” is a dark, intimate piece of queer autobiographical storytelling about addiction, transactional sex, homelessness, harm reduction, unreliable memory, and the dangerous distance between caring for someone and believing you can rescue them. Part of Lying Liars: true stories about the lies people tell one another—and themselves—when honesty cannot provide what they need. Content warning: explicit language, sexual situations, substance use, intravenous drug use, fentanyl, homelessness, suicidal behavior, and death.

Chapters 5 + 6. Solomon + Kerry and the Lies We Tell Amongst Friends, Lovers, and Other Assorted Assholes.

Everyone lies - especially those we calls our friends, and even more those we our lovers. Everyone is an asshole for it, and no one will apologize or change. In a double chapter featuring two of the shortest character vignettes in the The Lying Liars Who Lied When They Said They Loved You universe, we meet the narrator's car guy - Solomon, or Sol (no one calls him that) - piece by piece dismantling the narrator's car because of a boy, and then we meet the once-powerful now-porcine Kerry whose enthusiasm over two 'pussies' on a dating app rather than the two penises in his bedroom causes the narrator go flaccid and stale. None of these people are interested in each sexually or romantically - and barely platonically - but yet, here they are, doing drugs together and exploding their own disaster onto each other's lives and calling it just another day. Disaster means attention, and all attention is good so long as they get your name right, after all. Or, so you tell yourself. These are the lies we tell each other and ourselves when we realize it’s easier to make something than to admit that nobody here is here for anyone else - and nobody coming through the door will be, either. The lighter and the bubble make it easy to pretend you chose these people, and to ignore the loneliness and hurt left by the last person you did choose, who walked out the door and never returned because they hadn’t chosen you. Everybody lies because nobody wants to be honest and say everything is wrong and no one's going to make it right. Or that the necessity of another person breeds contempt, not affection. And we definitely lie more easily to people we hate. The Lying Liars Who Lied When They Said They Loved You is a fictionalized, semi-autobiographical novel and podcast exploring toxic relationships, codependency, substance abuse, and the men who taught me how to mistake their survival for love. Every episode is another man. More lies ahead. Content note: Explicit sexual language, drug use, homophobic language, police involvement, and adult themes. #DarkComedy #QueerMemoir #LiteraryPodcast #StorytellingPodcast #Audiobook

The Lying Liars Chapter 4 | Sully and the Lies Sewn into a Winter Coat

In this chapter, an ambiguous meet up with a 21-year-old named Sully falls apart through absurdity, misplaced expectations, unfulfilled needs, and one ex boyfriend in desperate need of a warm place on a frozen night. What begins as an act of charity unravels into a study of transactional intimacy, where warmth is currency and connection is a performance staged for an audience of one. The coat isn’t just fabric; it’s a relic of a life the narrator can no longer claim, offered to someone who will never wear it as anything but armor against the cold. This is not a rescue story. It’s an autopsy of the lie that kindness can fill the void left by those who’ve already taken everything. The Lying Liars Who Lied When They Said They Loved You is a fictionalized, semi-autobiographical novel and podcast exploring toxic relationships, codependency, substance abuse, and the men who taught me how to mistake survival for love. Every episode is another man. Every lie is another stitch in the coat I keep trying to give away.
