Chasing Stars
Publication: September 4, 2026
Chasing Stars is a queer love story about two men who find one another at the edges of the lives they were supposed to be living, and about one of the man’s increasingly surreal journey to understand the patterns that have followed him through his life.
Moving between romance and loneliness, reality and mythology, depression and hope, this story explores the intoxicating possibility of meeting someone who makes the world feel new again, and the frightening realization that no matter how far we travel, we still carry every version of ourselves with us.
At its heart, Chasing Stars is about the beautiful and sometimes dangerous ways we search for meaning in other people, the patterns we mistake for fate, and the stubborn hope that somewhere in the darkness there is still something bright enough to follow.
