RP Andrews spent most of his life and career in New York City as a public relations executive before relocating to Fort Lauderdale where he taught writing on the university level. "Basic Butch," his first book originally published in the spring of 2008, is a collection of edgy short stories set in some of America's leading gay venues with characters - gay men and women - whose arrogant, aggressive natures lead them down life paths they wished they had never explored. His second work, "Adrift in The Land of Plenty" published in 2009, is a novella that tells the story of a young psychopathic Florida drifter, whose body, brains, and cocky attitude are all he has to offer the world. For Josh, sex is a momentary pleasure or, more often, a commodity for sale and killing - beginning with his own parents - an easy way to make problems ago away.
