Twenty-eight-year-old Sebastian Long has been called the best actor of his generation. Discovered while performing cheap fight pictures in Morocco, Sebastian wins an Oscar for his breakthrough role in the film Checkmate. His performance is raw, surprising, and powerfula calculated dance with sexual taboo.
But his performance isnt the only contributing factor to the Oscar win. Paramount Pictures helps Sebastian get the Oscar by positioning him in the media as the first gay contender. Sebastians handlers work the gay is hot factor, making Sebastian the new gay it boy. The only problem is that Sebastian is married and is the father of two young children; his wife, Claire, and family are hidden from the media.
Sebastian excels at pretending to be gay off-camera. But gay protest groups discover he is straight, violent, and self-serving. Every film studio wants Sebastian to play a gay role in their next picture. But all of that changes when Sebastian arrives with his wife at the Oscar ceremony and kisses her on international television, triggering Paramount to initiate legal proceedings for breach of contract. These proceedings have a decided impact on Sebastians future career.

Autoren-Porträt von Sebastian Long
Sebastian Longs resume includes jeans model, porn star, international CK underwear model, B-movie fight god, Checkmate star, Oscar winner, gay media darling. The novel finds Sebastian settling into an abusive pattern of lying, exaggerating, tricking his therapist as he bitterly retells the past years of his life. Why is he in such a snit? He recently tried to strangle the pretty boy assigned to (or hired by him to) hold his hand and kiss him in public. Now he refuses to work ever again, a misguided protest against Paramount Studios. And his wife kicked him out of the house for pretending to be delusional or catatonic or both not to mention Sebastian setting their home on fire.Sebastians narrative voice is a journey in the visceral and intuitive, the tirade of an actor who gets in over his head while trying to manipulate the publicity machine. Sebastian writes Year of My Sticky as a way of licking his wounds before facing legal music. Implicit in his process is the fact the book text must be destroyed if Sebastian is to resume Hollywood work, hes telling too much.
Played out on international film sets, in photography studios, first class hotel suites, sex clubs and hospital birthing suites, Year of My Sticky is the trajectory of Sebastian Long: abused, subservient, convenient, straight, gay, straight, compromised, driven and brilliant todays new Hollywood actor, exposed, raw and in demand.
The novel jabs an amused finger at a media that makes gay the new flavor of the year. And traces on a deeper level one guys trek through hip milestones of self-annihilation nothin left to lose is Sebastians artistic and personal M.O.
