What made the experience of listening to Sam Dorsey and Gay Popcorn (DoubleEdition) the most enjoyable?
I think the narrator – and I also just thought the entire thing was just kind of light and sweet. It’s kind of like getting to have a gay teen get to be the lead in Clueless or Legally Blonde or one of those fun ‘popcorn’ flicks that are just a fun, relaxing, guilty pleasure.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Sam – he’s endearing but totally clueless. I think that almost every gay guy wishes they’d had something fun like this to read when they were a teen – and certainly wished they’d been in the marvelous Hollywood dream-tastic alternate reality of having two hot high school guys making his head spin. Molly Ringwald gets the gay spin – it’s fun.
Which scene was your favorite?
I think it’s the end of the second book…. you totally kind of see what’s going to end up happening – but when I read it I actually teared up a little bit. For everybody who’s a romantic it just kind of makes you want so bad to have had that when you were Sam’s age.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Sam needs to come out of his shell… But his birthdays are always a major blow out… and we don’t mean the candles.
