The Downs

A story from the Love is an Open Road event sponsored by the Goodreads M/M Romance Group. Members of the Goodreads M/M Romance Group were invited to choose a photo and pen a letter asking for a short M/M romance story inspired by the image; authors from the group were encouraged to select a letter and write an original tale. Kim Fielding responded to this request. PHOTO DESCRIPTION: A naked man stands with his back to the viewer, a plain white floor beneath his feet. Ahead of him, a pair of large black doors are ajar, revealing a glimpse of bright light. The mans shoulders are slightly hunched and his head is bowed; he appears hesitant to face whatever fate awaits him through the doors. STORY LETTER: Dear Author, He stood, head bowed, body tense, waiting. No matter what happened next, his life would never be the same Please give this man his life changing event, whatever that may be, as long as he ends up with his HEA/HFN by the end. Thank you, Aislinn
