Abstract
We Built This Kingdom is a collection of short stories which strive to examine the nuances of queer love, lust, connection, aggression, affection, masculinity, and heartache.
My intent is for these pieces to stand alone as short stories, but when read sequentially, the reader should be able to parse a connection between the texts and follow a tether from one to the other.
This collection of short fiction represents a cumulative body of work in partial completion of a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing.
