Security Among Titles
by Stephen Rambles
Senator Maher carefully crafted a reputation and a career on status. A man who has always gotten what he wanted, he has always assumed that his success is deserved… and inevitable. He's never had to believe the word no. For the senator, life has always been about titles: the ones he holds, the ones he expects, and the ones that this key piece of legislation will give him, now that it has made it out of committee and is up for debate. For years, his path seemed unstoppable—his every move guided by the respect he expects from others, easily manipulated because of his ambitions. He never questioned the rules of this world, only that they be followed to his advantage.
Unexpected news… forces him to a crossroads as questions he can no longer ignore resurrect, and he begins to wonder if who should be believed is more important than who is telling the truth. With the legacy he seeks now facing an uncertain future, he must face the uncomfortable reality that the titles he has held so dear may not be enough to protect him from the truths he has long avoided.

Grown Folks' Business
Grown Folks' Business tells a continuing story from Security Among Titles where family, mourning, and a quest for knowledge become a poignant exploration in the painful process of uncovering hidden truths. Hannon Washington and his best friend, Joey Parker, want to learn; but are forced to navigate around what the adults in their lives try to shield from them. This desire sprouts from comprehending the lives of two activists who are more than mentors: they are family.
The two battle with the wave of revisionism gripping the nation—a movement that has cycled since the end of the Civil War. As they realize that this personal loss is tied to a much bigger narrative, they struggle to understand these complex forces. They both need to come to terms with their respective places in the ongoing fight to preserve the history that has been silenced.
Although their paths are different, both are driven by a reality that growing up is not just about learning facts—it’s about confronting uncomfortable truths. They must decide whether to accept the version of the world they’ve been given or confront the deeper secrets that history has buried.
Between Two Guys
Morocco is coming of age in a house where masculinity has legacy. As he navigates puberty and explores his desires, he learns that an all-American boy has a crush on him—but it only matters if his older brother, Aegan, approves. To Morocco, this condition feels invasive and unfair, like a boundary drawn around his life before he has learned how to cross it himself. Aegan's involvement isn't protection: it's control.
What follows is friction, disguised as rebellion. Morocco navigates attraction under supervision, misreading restraint as judgment and preparation as denial. Every interaction carries the weight of being watched, measured, and limited, as his need for connection grows more urgent.
Between Two Guys follows a young man as he moves toward a choice he does not yet understand, and a future he cannot yet see clearly.
