Never Too Late: Inspired by "the Bears' Den" Series

By K.G. Follett

As the 1970s came to a close, the mantra of "sex, drugs and rock & roll" was still being practiced with wild abandon in the younger generations. The "baby boomers" had come into their own, and the "gay rights" movement was a decade old. Alan Fritz was spending these happy, care-free times with family and friends - old and new - as he pursued a burgeoning modeling career that would soon make images of him world famous. Dean Swanson was a struggling actor in New York City, who met the love of his life at an obscure audition off-off-Broadway, setting up a pairing that was destined to be a force in the New York theater scene. Things were looking up for both men as the new decade dawned. But what the 1980s had in store was about to change their lives (and the lives of millions of others) drastically. Little did they know that they were about to face trials, tribulations, and losses brought on by a mystery disease that would come to be known as HIV/AIDS. The results of their own personal traumas with the pandemic would bring them to a brief, chance meeting, then put them on an unlikely path that would (re)unite them 30 years later. "Never Too Late" is a sometimes sad, sometimes funny, often heart-warming tale of a long-term survivor and a supporter, as they make their way through the AIDS crisis and eventually find each other in a twist of fate. As the title suggests, you never know when love may make its way into your life, even if you think it may have passed you by - it's never too late to find love.
