About This Is How We Come Back

One of a pair of lovers slices off his nipple on a dare. Both argue about enlightenment before it becomes too late, after retreating from the hostile world into a cave of wildly carnal fulfilment. Marrying mystical exploration and avant-garde homo-erotica, here is a prose-poem-as-fairy-tale in the modern day about the things few of us in love may see, insights about love and loss which pierce the amnesia of ordinary time.

About the Book

Noah’s life takes a wild turn when Adam—his supposed boyfriend from the future—shows up out of nowhere. The grumpy and reckless Adam does not know that they are a thing and hates him for his guts, giving Noah an uphill task of winning him over.

Worse, Adam can’t control his unstable time-travel powers, putting himself in danger at every turn. But Noah has seen the Adam beneath the chaos in the future versions of him—the one who will someday love him—and he’s determined to protect him until that future finally comes true.

About the Author

Jom Gamerland is actually the author’s pen name and is an anagram of his real name. He has been writing in Wattpad since 2021. Jom has completed multiple novels and Ark and Apple is one of his proudest works. He had won multiple prompts and official Wattpad contests until he decided to take it slow as he pursues his Nursing career in the Unites States of America.

He was born in a community where discrimination against homosexuality is rampant. He has witnessed how many people impose their own beliefs in the happiness of others. The urge to break this stigma prompted him to write his own story and help readers learn that true love should be seen from a spectrum.

About the Book

Eros doesn’t believe in love—despite being named after the god of it. All he wants is the lead role in The Enchanted Stream. But when Zach, a maddening stranger, wrecks his audition, Eros swears he’ll never forgive him. Then fate hands him a second chance… and Zach as his rehearsal partner.

Now, every line they rehearse blurs into something dangerous—something that feels nothing like hate. Is it just stage chemistry, or has Eros finally met his match in more ways than one?
