Love Briefs is an energetic collection of seven short plays that explores the humor, heartache, and joy found in modern LGBTQ love. Throughout the plays we get to see the thrills and challenges we experience in the search for the "one." The collection immerses readers in the intricacies of relationships, revealing moments of desire, jealousy, loss, longing, and hope. Each play is a window into a unique facet of romantic connection, moving gracefully between comedy, drama, and tenderness, and featuring lively characters ranging from lovers and exes to siblings, friends, gods, and fairy godmothers. The stories are as diverse as the emotions they evoke. In Eros, a GI Joe doll and a statue of Eros become the center of eccentric, mystical ritual to find love. Pool Side dives into the chaos of mistaken intentions, when one unexpectedly encounters their ex at a Palm Springs hotel pool. Baby Christina tackles the joys and trials of parenthood, and the responsibilities that accompany such an endeavor.


Can one keep the petri dish? In Goodbye Cupid, or hero swears off love, until Cupid's sudden arrival stirs up unexpected emotions. In My Fairy Godmothers, magical chaos ensues with the arrival of a Fairy Godmother in training and her "superior." Motherly Advice examines the pressures of a lost DVD, a sex therapist mother, and an unanswered proposal. What could possibly go wrong? Finally, P.S. I Love You addresses the pain of grief and the challenge of letting go, revealing the enduring impact of love and loss. This collection of plays celebrates the fragile yet resilient beauty of human connection and love. From funny, sensual, and devastating, Love Briefs reminds us that love-whether romantic or familial, is rarely simple.


It is often surprising and always worth the risk, even if your mother is a sex therapist. Perfect for readers of queer literature, short plays, and emotionally resonant storytelling, Love Briefs is a celebration of connection in all its fragile, complicated beauty.
