Stories in the Frank's Post-Apoc World Universe
At the end of the first European expedition, Janice had vowed never to go make another trip. Bobbi wanted to return and the Trio prevails with new narrators, Andy and Charlie. The adventure continues. To understand all of this story, it's a good idea to read at least Book 8 but each storyline stands on its own. As always, it's about the people but the trips are interesting to ponder. There is a reasonable bit of romance but no explicit sex.

David experiences love and the heartache of loss in his life, and on his journey of recovery finds it difficult to accept help at all, but especially from an unexpected source. He has to learn that some things shouldn't ever 'go without saying', and finds that not all his friends know when to speak and when to shut up. That needs wisdom, which really does go without saying.

A Story in the Naked In School Universe
Following the end of the main events of Allison and Emanuel NiS, Kara Foster's week in the Program begins. What does 'fate' have in store for her (and them!) this week? This is a direct sequel to Allison and Emanuel NiS, and may not make much sense if you haven't already read that story. Minor Content Warnings (handled tastefully and sensitively): attempted assault (chps 23, 28, 44) and mentions of self-harm. A letter in () indicates the speaker/thinker of a given line - ie (K) for Kara.

Julie knew she was falling in love with a co-worker, an older guy named Sam. Sam had lost his wife years earlier and Julie suspected he was still grieving. Just as she began to feel there was a chance for the two of them, she heard Sam's late wife had been a supermodel. Looking at herself, Julie saw someone tall & skinny, average looks, very small boobs and hardly any butt. Is there a chance Sam could stop loving memories of perfection and be interested in her?
