Editor's Note:
When Paul, a religious man who spent most of his life suppressing his homosexuality, dies he is greeted at the Pearly Gates by someone unexpected. According to Paul, his first love—a gay man who died from complications due to HIV/AIDS—shouldn’t be allowed in Heaven. SOULBOUND is a paranormal LGBT short story, reflecting the devastating impact of programs that force people to deny their homosexuality. SOULBOUND is a different sort of love story—two men never get to actualize their affection for one another until the afterlife. SOULBOUND deals with spirituality, the metaphysical, and religion. The story is not meant to push any specific belief. It’s meant to reflect an oversoul that knows no boundaries. While epic in scope, SOULBOUND is a short story (8,400 words/35 or so pages) that follows the life of Paul Milgrone, a down-on-his-luck married man, who has lived a life not of his own design. John Rington was Paul’s first love but died from HIV/AIDS-related issues. When Paul fell into the hands to an ex-gay ministry, he never let himself love again. Love, how do you live without it?
