Marquesate specialises in writing military gay erotic fiction, usually set in the British Forces.

Having lived in several countries and dreamed in more than one language, Marquesate creates fiction that often starts from a simple idea and takes unforeseen directions, as does life itself. Writing from inspiration yet enjoying meticulously exploring and researching lives and places and adding a dose of personal experience, Marquesate combines imagination and authenticity to bring fiction closer to reality - making the fictional worlds real.

Marquesate lives in Britain and has been associated with the British Forces for a number of years. Using the insight into the 'bowels' of the military machinery and into the soldiers' minds and modes of functioning, Marquesate creates realistic settings, situations and characters who are simultaneously down to earth and larger than life. They are grounded in their military environment and thrown into a maelstrom of duty, comradeship, hostility, courage, loyalty and lust, to emerge scarred, battle-hardened and touched at the very core of their selves - by another man, another soldier, an enemy, a friend, a foe or an ally.

'Never the twain shall meet', is not a dictum Marquesate adheres to. Those men do meet despite cross fire and friendly fire, through the ranks, and across all the frontlines dividing their world.

In 2006 Marquesate began writing in collaboration with co-author Vashtan, and the end of 2008 sees the writing of the last chapter of the three volumes of Special Forces. It is the epic story of two enemy soldiers who meet in 1980 in the line of duty during the early days of the Soviet Union's last war in Afghanistan. The story is harsh and violent, but life is cruel and those two Special Forces soldiers do what they need to survive. Enemy Mine and Brothers in Arms - on two different sides.

Special Forces is freely available and published online on Marquesate's website. Camouflage Men: Military Gay Erotic Fiction.
