Welcome!

Thanks for stopping by my home page. I’m Michael Rupured, academic by day, and wearer of many hats by night, including Zumba King, romance novelist, blogger, and caretaker of my chihuahua, Toodles.

I also write novels featuring gay protagonists. Click on My Books (above) to see covers, blurbs, reviews, and ordering information. Works in Progress provides a glimpse of plans for future novels.

On Mondays and Thursday, I blog about my experience as a writer, my struggle to maintain a healthy lifestyle, and my life in general. Click on My Blog (above) to read my latest posts. For a while, I called the blog My Glass House. Before I moved over to WordPress, I blogged as The Crotchety Old Man on blogspot and for a short time, helped the dogs with The Adventures of Tico and Toodles.

Under All About Me you’ll find general information (About Me). Click on My Day Job to learn more about my professional life. The insanely curious and stalkers can learn even more by checking out My Interests.

Below are links to other blogs that might interest you and pull-down menus so you can search my blog posts by topic or by month. If you can’t find what you’re looking for or just want to say hello, send me an email (mrupured@gmail.com). I’d love to hear from you.
