Summary
Wine critic Kurt Hummel can make or break careers with his column for Taste Magazine. But when his publisher orders him to spend a year profiling rising stars of California’s wine country and organizing a competition between the big name wineries of Napa and the smaller artisan wineries of Sonoma, his world gets turned upside-down by an enigmatic young winemaker who puts art before business.

June 2015: I'm very excited to share that the adaptation of Sotto Voce into a novel received a starred review from Publishers Weekly and a Foreword Reviews INDIEFAB book of the year award. The novel is an adaptation of this original work, with extensive re-writing and additions to the fic. I will not be taking this original draft of Sotto Voce down from A03, and I intend to keep it in its original unedited and unrevised form here. It is not the same as the novel, and I feel it stands on its own, errors and all. Thank you so much for your support of this little fic that is so close to my heart. - GSJ

Summary
“Ed never let me wear nice things like this,” he hears her as he strides by, intent on looking for some gas and a way the hell out of the traffic snarl they’ve landed themselves in. He thinks it’s a waste of time – but Rick is hell bent on heading to Fort Benning and fuck, it’s not like he has any better place to be.
Her words bother him as he works. They niggle at him for days, weeks, months after they leave that pathetic strip of concrete – the last place they saw that little girl alive. He thinks about it – the drab tans and browns that blend into nothingness that he’s seen her in. He thinks of the smile on her face as she’d pressed that red fabric against her chest and held it there. She’s quiet – pale and colourless since they left the farm. It’s like he can see the colour bleed out of her right before his very eyes. He wants her to smile again.
Ed never let me.
Well. Fuck that, he thinks. He’ll show that son of a bitch.

Kellie prompted: “A fic based on Check Yes Or No by George Strait.” Blaine is the new kid in Kurt’s third grade class. Blaine is very shy, but he works up the nerve to give Kurt a note that says, “Be my friend? Check Yes or No.” This is the story of how the theme continues, as they become best friends, boyfriends, and fiancés.
