When not hunched before a computer screen, Al can be found at his art desk. He does portraits in both pencil and oil paint, and loves drawing fellow authors' characters nearly as much as his own. He writes cozy and uplifting stories with queer, trans, and neurodiverse representation.

Al Hess recommends
The Stars Too Fondly (2024)
Emily Hamilton
"The vacuum of space is anything but dark when your found family is with you. This cozy space opera is delightful and full of heart."
Welcome to Forever (2024)
Nathan Tavares
"Tavares reminds us that no matter how far technology advances, human connection will always bind us. This is a sharp and aching portrait of love painted with a deft hand."
