Summary

It was 1990, and I had just come back from Europe. My suitcase still smelled faintly of airports and foreign cigarettes. I returned with paperwork. Divorce papers. The end of one version of me, and maybe the beginning of another. In those early days back, I told myself I was an accomplished gay man. I said it half jokingly, half defiantly, but really, I was trying to stand in my own truth for the first time without apology.

Stephen James Freeman is a psychic medium and author whose storytelling moves between lived reality and Surrealism. His stories begin with human experience, but where they go from there is rarely predictable.

The library opens with ten original short stories, each existing entirely on its own. One may take you somewhere you have never been, while another draws you into a life completely different from your own. You may find yourself laughing, caught inside a short drama, swept into a romance, or unexpectedly moved by a story you never saw coming. Gay lives, straight lives, young lives, older lives. There is no single genre and no set formula. Just stories about people and what happens to them.

Each story is available in its original written form and as a produced audio experience, where narration, character voices, music, atmosphere, and sound bring another dimension to what began on the page.

Ten stories open the library, with new titles continuing to appear. Because no two stories need to resemble one another, you will never quite know what the next one might hold.

Human experience without the noise.

So remember, when you have nowhere to be, there is always time for a story.
