In 1957 Robert felt unloved after being dispatched at age seventeen to a British-style boarding school outside of Boston, where he was bullied and humiliated by his callous classmates for a seemingly endless year. In his second year at the preppy school, Robert was relieved another young man was the victim of choice for his fo... rmer tormenters. Robert sought solace in his studies and scorned seeking out any indication of warmth from his classmates.
His solitary comfort was disturbed when Freddy, one of his previously bullying classmates, requested Robert tutor him in algebra as Robert aced the class Freddy was flunking. Robert was annoyed when Freddy used a hated nickname, “Robbie,” while addressing him during the tutoring session. The diminutive appellation both reminded him of his dismissive father and the abusive treatment throughout his grim first year at the school.
Tutoring devolved into sexual harassment, leaving Robert angry at both Freddy and himself, vowing never to let his desire for intimacy overcome his instinctive distrust. The situation worsened on Freddy’s second request for a tutorial session. He brought along a friend, Corbin, another of the clique who bullied Robert the first year. The pair collaborated to maneuver Robert into objectionable sexual situations thwarted only by the return home of Robert’s roommate, Kurt, who surprisingly sympathized with Robert before briskly ejecting Freddy and Corbin from the room.read more
BIOGRAPHY Kenn moved from the gay ghetto called Wilton Manors, Florida to the much more dynamic, yet still extremely gay, District of Columbia area. More than thirty years ago he submitted a short story to a “one-hand magazine” contest and won a year's subscription. Since then he has written many stories, none of which he subm... itted for publication until August 2008 when one was included in Alyson Books’ Island Boys Anthology. Currently, he is thrilled to be published in eXcessica.com with over sixty titles. He is also published in two additional Alyson Books anthologies: Best Gay Love Stories 2009 and 2010. Generally, Kenn says he sees a hot male and constructs a fantasy story around him?how he’s dressed, what he might be thinking, what is his relationship with the other males around him be it in a bar, a bus, a restaurant, a bank, or even a church. Sometimes a situation encountered in Kenn’s daily routine, on vacation, or simply on a casual stroll around the neighborhood, inspires him and a story will take shape in his mind, which is then populated from his vivid imagination. Kenn claims to find few outlets outside of erotic fiction for his innate creativity and is pleased others are interested in reading what he writes.read more
