Children's author In 2014, Andriote independently published his first illustrated children's picture book, Wilhelmina Goes Wandering, based on the true story of a runaway cow in Milford, CT. He discussed the book with Connecticut television hosts, including Scot Haney on WFSB's "Better Connecticut" and Teresa Dufour on WTNH's "Connecticut Style." The book was profiled in Connecticut Family magazine and served as the basis of a 2015 "Wilhelmina Goes Writing" contest for eastern Connecticut area elementary schools, sponsored by The Day, the daily newspaper of New London, Connecticut. Return to Connecticut In 2015, Andriote independently published Tough Love: A Washington Reporter Finds Resilience, Ruin, and Zombies in His 'Other Connecticut' Hometown. The book is a collection of his writing between 2007 and 2014 focused on eastern Connecticut, including more than 150 of Andriote's weekly columns for The Bulletin, the daily newspaper in Norwich, CT, blogs written for HuffPost, and feature articles about eastern Connecticut. Andriote discussed Tough Love with WTNH "Connecticut Style" host Teresa Dufour, and on NPR's Colin McEnroe Show. Focus on resilience In 2017 Rowman & Littlefield published Andriote's book Stonewall Strong: Gay Men's Heroic Fight for Resilience, Good Health, and a Strong Community. The book is based on Andriote's personal story of living with HIV, nearly 100 original interviews, and new behavioral research focused on gay men. In September 2017, Andriote began a blog titled "Stonewall Strong" for Psychology Today, focused on lessons from gay men's experience of trauma and resilience.
