Title: Queen Henry
Description: Narrated in the first person by Henry, the story reads like his own journal as he reflects upon each conversation he has and reveals his inner thoughts. We get to delve into Henry's psyche enabling us to not only understand the challenges and quandaries he faces, but also to enthusiastically root for him. He wins us over. Henry is a baseball player because that's what made his father happy. He's not unhappy as a ball player and he is good at it but he doesn't think about life much. He plays ball, goofs off for the crowd and goes to bars with the guys. He hides his weaknesses, asthma, etc. His life changes after getting on a trial asthma drug and finding himself bewilderingly attracted to men. He confronts the med tech Sam, who happens to be gay and doesn't really appreciate someone.
