In 1992, Brian Francis placed a personal ad in a local newspaper. He was a 21-year-old university student, still very much in the closet, and looking for love. He received 25 responses, but there were 13 letters that went unanswered and spent years tucked away, forgotten, inside a cardboard box. Now, nearly 30 years later, and at a much different stage in his life, Brian has written replies to those letters.
