S.S. Genesee
Hello, call me Genesee! I am the author of the MM romance duology, “All Tomorrow’s Photos”. I am an avid illustrator, bringing to life my written stories through the art I create. I also am a connoisseur of all things vintage, specifically loving fashion and music of the ’60s and ’70s. The Rolling Stones and the Beach Boys are my absolute favorites!
Anime style artwork I drew of Maurice and Kenneth, the main characters from “All Tomorrow’s Photos”. I also drew the cover artwork for the book!

Content Warnings
Explicit language, graphic depictions of violence and death (blood and gore), body horror, consensual explicit sexual content, mentions of parental child abuse, period-typical homophobia, alcohol and marijuana use, needles (blood drawing)
Side Note
The main character, Maurice, is autistic. However, I don’t mention the words “autism” or “autistic” anywhere in the book. This is because of the time period the book is set in, and Maurice would’ve never been properly diagnosed. But do note that I, the author, have written him as an autistic character.
All Yesterday’s Papers
Grand Rapids, Michigan, 1974Another body is found. Another one of Maurice’s victims. But as the law draws near, everything starts to change…Kenneth thinks things are finally looking up in his life. He has a wonderful partner in Maurice, and a future that looks bright… or so it seems. As more murders occur, and the police learn more about the Western Michigan Serial Killer, Kenneth’s world begins to crack. Maybe his perfect lover isn’t as perfect as he thought.Maurice spirals further and further out of control, losing sight of who he is—is he an immoral, murderous artist, or a sweet, caring boyfriend? How long can he hide the truth from Kenneth before it all comes crashing down, ending his life as he knows it?Would Kenneth still love him if he knew?[All Yesterday’s Papers is Book Two of the All Tomorrow’s Photos duology. It is not a standalone, and must be read after Book One. This duology is a dark MM romance story not intended for a young audience.]
