Falling in love with another man his first year in college, he followed him to another university to mainatin their platonic love and continue in their similar aspirations in studies. After he had his first sexual encounter before turning twenty-one,he exploded into gay life with lust and anger. He attempted to live his new life naturally, seeking love, ignoring the statistics of the books he read on homosexuality in high school, and proving what he had read was wrong.He wrote poetry and stories since third grade. When he turned twenty-one, he moved to San Francisco to work and write, experiencing more of gay life. In the 1980's he wrote every chance he had, trying and failing miserably at publishing mainstream fiction. He published his first story in 1986 in a literary magazine.After creating two novels, plays, short stories and poetry, he changed his subject matter to gay genre, since he had more knowledge and experience with gay lifestyle. Trying to publish, he went to a library seminar hosted by two published authors. Inspired by the gay writer, he connected with him on the internet site for The San Francisco Bay Area Literary Arts Newsletter and Review, which published four of Pablo's short stories.Feverously writing since 2004, he published his first e-book,"Pagan Knights of Cambria"with Life of Riley Productions in London. Soon a mainstream story, "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again Hooray", published also. In 2011 Pablo self-published his first novel, "Catnip, Rosemary, Rage and Time", a gay, erotic romance with mystery and humor. Currently he is determined to finish a novel he started in 1990. The plot spreads over several decades, about a man's attempts to adapt to the world he lives, all with love, heartache, history and survival at no cost.
