Introduction

I read an interview recently in which an editor of professionally published fiction stated that virtually no well-written amateur fiction exists in the world. Shortly thereafter, he made clear that he was basing this claim on the quality of his slushpile (unsolicited manuscripts). That explained a lot.

Here, then, are a few of the jewels that the pro editors have never seen, poor things. This list does not include a number of up-and-coming writers whom I particularly enjoy. Instead, it consists of online authors who are Already There, writing at a professional level. I've also included links to online fiction from a few professional writers. You can judge for yourself whether those tales match up to the high standards set by the amateur authors.

I have also expanded the original site to include a video section.

As anyone who has read my stories can guess, I'm especially drawn to angsty, plot-driven tales that focus on strong emotional bonds between characters. An interesting theme or an ethical struggle can easily hook me into a story.

The word "homoerotic" simply means "homosexual" here, though a number of the stories do include erotic content.

If you would like to submit your own online male homoerotic fiction recommendations, Buried Treasure's companion site Private Parlor offers you an opportunity to do so. True Tales: An Erotic E-zine of Masculinity and Power is similar to this site, but specifically focusses on recommendations of homoerotic fiction, nonfiction, art, photography, music, and videos that center on masculinity and power. The Slash Skinny provides information on professionally published male and female homoerotic fiction.

I'm still searching for the perfect place to find male friendship stories.
