Lewis, a gay writer of romantic novels, writes an article on gay issues under the pseudonym of "Zippy Grimes."

The article is a great success and leads to a huge amount of reactions, mainly from other gay men who are leading a double life. He decides to meet a number of these letter writers and eventually is forced to come out.
