I hope everyone enjoys the Party!<br /><br />The central character, Swishy Pete, originated during the time I moved to East Harlem, New York, and his first words came out of the mouth of a young man I had frequently seen at the corner Bodegas, a Hispanic/Spanish/Latin mini-mart. <br /><br />Swishy Pete is an effeminate gay man commonly living in urban areas throughout America. His community views him as asexual and although everyone is aware he is gay, it is not much of an issue. <br /><br />He has lived in the same neighborhood all his life, possibly on the same block, and can often be found chatting it up on the stoops of his female neighbors, French braiding straight guy's hair, or organizing neighborhood and church functions.<br /><br />Flash Fiction is a style of fictional literature mostly known for its extreme brevity. The exact word count is debatable; however, I have adopted the style for the Conversations with Swishy Pete tales to concentrate on humorous conversations of the four characters. In other words, the focus is on what these characters say to one another, which allows the reader to feel as if they are sitting right there with Swishy Pete and his cohorts, enjoying the conversations as anyone would do with their friends.A.
