"Solace From Strangers" is a non-fiction series where I interview various people and get to know them. Everyone is someone. Nobody is an NPC or an extra in the background. With this series, I hope to put a spotlight on the people that you might walk past on the street or see in a car that you pass by on the freeway. I want everyone to realize that we all have our own story.
Topics discussed in the various interviews:
Religion
Death
Drug addiction
LGBTQ+
Love
Transgenderism
College
California
The California Conservation Corps (CCC)
The Backcountry Trails Program (BCTP)

Touch: Awakening
The first touch burns. The second will change her life. In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch. This is the world Alexis is born into. A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew? Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand. The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever. **** Later chapters contain situations intended for a mature audience. Consider yourself warned :)Complete
The Guilty Ones 》Glee/Klaine ✓
What do a wealthy, studious boy and a poor, "troubled" teen have in common? They both have a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Blaine Anderson had worked hard to build the walls around his sheltered life. He had achieved a line-up of A's, a leading position in Dalton Academy's hottest group, and was the son of one of the wealthiest families in Westerville, Ohio. Not even Kurt Hummel, the "almost-juvie", trouble-finding son of Lima's penniless repairman could knock them down. He's polite, he's successful, he's... everything Kurt isn't. But Blaine's curiosity peaks upon wondering what the real reason is for Kurt's enrollment in the prestigious private school. Consequences follow actions as Blaine slowly begins to unravel the truth about the dark new student. And it all leads up to the one night that could crumble his walls for good.

Over the Redline
Quinn thought she was done with drama. A PhD, a boyfriend, and a carefully managed life meant there wasn't room for chaos anymore. But when the cracks in her relationship deepen and a late-night scroll leads her to a stranger's chaotic biker community, Quinn finds herself pulled toward something she didn't realize she'd been missing: laughter, possibility, and the courage to want more than just "fine". Kai thought he had it figured out. Nights filled with work, days stolen by insomnia, and just enough chaos online to keep the world entertained. He doesn't do feelings, doesn't do relationships, and definitely doesn't do staying still. But behind the cocky grin and the viral stunts is a man who talks about mental health louder than he admits his own struggles. Life is good the way it is...until a stranger stumbles across his corner of the internet and suddenly pretending he doesn't need more stops working.
