Moving to Los Angeles. Ready or not, here I come. 👊
Photo of Hayden, a white man with a long wavy mullet and a scruffy beard, wearing round eyeglasses, a blue hearing aid, an earring, and a white dress shirt with a blue and purple diamond pattern, unbuttoned and open to his bare chest. He is standing in a blank room, looming above the camera and looking down into it with a stern look.

Cropped photo of Hayden from the neck down: a white man with long hair and a beard, a hairy chest and belly, with botanical tattoos on his forearms, and wearing linen shorts and an unbuttoned white linen shirt. He is standing near a bright window, holding his shirt open with one hand and reaching down inside his shorts with the other.

I went from "proper otter" to "werewolf dad" in just a couple of years. Wild.
A photo portrait of Hayden saturated neon green and yellow. He is a young white man with short dark blond hair, a mustache, and botanical tattoos on his forearms, wearing an oversized white unbuttoned shirt and a gold ring, sitting in a sunlit window bay. Photo of Hayden, a white man with shoulder-length brown hair and a beard, with a hairy chest and belly, wearing only a baseball cap and round wire-frame glasses. He is looking at the camera and sticking out his tongue, lying in bed while a nearby window throws light and shadows up his body, face, and on the wall behind him.

A thing I wrote last year about sex, optics, and disability is now on my website to be more accessible to fellow disabled hotties.

Let yourself be moved towards loving people more freely and ferociously than ever before. Let these times radicalize you because you love people, need people, and want wellness, goodness, and happiness for people more than anything else.

Illustrated graphic: text on a vibrant orange background reads "Let this radicalize you rather than lead you to despair." The words are surrounded by white doves and pink and white flowers.

My writing news: I was selected as the 2025 Adina Talve-Goodman Fellow by @onestorymag.bsky.social to support my commitment to fiction writing, particularly as I work to complete my first novel this year: a science fiction love story about a deaf boy and a blind boy.
Photo of Hayden, a white man with long curly brown hair and a scruffy beard, wearing round wireframe eyeglasses, an orange, yellow, pink, and blue striped scarf loosely wrapped around his neck, and a black shirt. He is facing the camera but looking up and away from it with a gentle expression.

Hey folks. From now on, I will be using a different name in my public work and writing career, in memory of Donald Knight, a cousin and friend, fellow creative, and queer mentor.

I'm not sure I would still be here without him, and now that he's gone, I hope this is a way to keep him with us.

Meant to share this teaser, too. Better late than never.
Photo of Hayden, a white man with dark wavy hair, a mustache, hairy chest, and thighs, with pierced ears and botanical tattoos on his forearm. He is wearing an unbuttoned white linen shirt, sitting slumped on a couch, legs spread, arm across his waist, with a window and framed painting behind him. A round white stamp that reads "Sensitive Content" in bold black text fully conceals his groin.
