Blair Fell is the author of The Sign for Home, which was long-listed for the Center for Fiction’s First Book prize, was the winner of the Doris Lippman Prize, and was selected both as an Indies Introduce and Indies Next pick. He’s written dozens of plays that have been performed all over NYC’s downtown as well as in cities across the country and around the world. His TV work as a writer includes Queer as Folk (Showtime) and California Connected (public TV). His first-person essays have appeared in Out Magazine, NY Daily News, Huffington Post, and more. He’s had myriad loving relationships, lives in New York City, and, along with writing, works as an ASL interpreter. He’s also been an actor, director, and producer — and was once a bartender for the summer on Fire Island, an experience that greatly informed this novel.
