• “A Recipe For…” in Boys In Heat

    Boys In Heat Read the short story “A Recipe For…” in Richard Labonte’s Boys In Heat, a 2008 anthology by Cleis Press. “The love-’em-and-leave-’em style is what Kal Cobalt’s ‘A Recipe For’ is all about,” Labonte says in the introduction. “A Recipe For…” is set in the raunchy world of after-hours chef culture.

    Halfway down the alley, there was a lone dim light, and beneath it, the glare of a cigarette’s ember. As I got closer, I could make out the man who was smoking: tall and scrawny, wearing a white, food-stained apron underneath a black leather jacket. He had close-cropped salt-and-pepper hair and deep, hard eyes. He gave me a jerky little half-nod and said, “Hey.”
