Free gay novel from MLR Press - Bashed
Title: Bashed by Rick R. Reed
This is MLR Press' free read of the week, available as a PDF file. Description: Three haters. Two lovers. And a collision course with tragedy. That October night, Donald and Mark had no idea their lives and love were about to be shattered by fag bashers, intent on pain, and armed with ridicule, fists, and an aluminum baseball bat. Bashed charts the course of a journey that encompasses suspense, horror, and--ultimately--romance. |

Thanks!
I don't buy anything from MLR press because they don't list book details like page count or filesize. Grr. This is 213 pages of 8x5 PDF with 1/2" margins; it's tagged, but locked against changes (so I had to run it through the unlocking program to crop out the margins); it's a bit more than 63,000 words. |

They list word count for everything, as far as I can tell, just not for the free read. If you click on any of the books that they sell they'll give you page count for the paper back edition as well as word count.
