Ace Portuguez

I write smart, sexy thrillers, and produce audiobooks while living on an old Upstate farm. Like a smutty Alonso Quijano.

"Sex Saved the Summer," is a funny, messy & honest personal essay collection. In the opening essay, "A Royal Rumble on Fire Island," I recount my accidental starring role in a romantic spiral involving a Ghanaian princess. From there, the chaos deepens: housing a bohemian squatter with more confidence than hygiene ("The Opulent Squatter"), a college prank gone haywire ("The Imposter of McIntire Hall"), and a surreal family mix-up involving my grandfather, an orange VHS tape, and my mother ("My Mom, the Porn Dealer"). And that’s just scratching the surface.

Weekly reflections on existence, meaning, and exploring the experience of coming home

Full-time self-published author and sometimes podcaster, I write and publish science fiction and fantasy. I also write about the business of writing and publishing in The View From Here.
