It’s Been a Business Doing Pleasure with You 

Autobiography of a high profile gay escort, from early military upbringing and its clashes with his young gay identity, to tales of when and how he left home under threat of shotgun. Going out and coming out into the world he makes his way to find a niche of survival. Only to discover soon afterwards that he has something far harder to survive, a virus called HIV. With the lost lives of friends, lovers, and dogs, he meets many in his Hollywood movie like life, some famous and not so famous in his pursuit of happiness. Rounding out his years in the oldest profession are some bits of wisdom, folly, and finally closure with his father after years of distance with his gay son.
