Coming to America for university is a dream across the world. Every smart, capable young person wants to walk the halls of the USA's storied universities and get the prestige that an American degree means back home. The barrier, of course, is money. To study in the US you usually have to have access to a bank account with the full cost of attendance in cash, and no scholarships are readily available. To all but the economic elite, the goal in nearly unattainable.

But for those who knew where to look, there were options. Americans who could help out, and would in the right situation. The right clever, beautiful, and driven young women could get connected with them if she played her cards right.

The group didn't have a name, and even calling it a group was a stretch. It was simply a network of wealthy men who wanted to help, and a few assistants who could work on the administrative issues. Candidates could come from anywhere in the world, and study any topic. If she showed promise at a university in her home country, an opportunity would be presented.

Exactly what that opportunity was varied from provider to provider, but there was a suggested framework they shared: her last two years at any US university she could get into, all her tuition covered by her benefactor. A place to live, usually with him. Access to career coaching and help acclimating to US culture.

Of course, the men expected something back, and the women were never in the dark. Best practices insisted on clear rules and meetings before anyone got on a plane or registered for classes. In addition to her studies, she usually functioned like a temporary wife: partnership was encouraged. For an American man who'd made it as far as he could in his field, it felt like a great next step: a beautiful young woman in the house, and a chance to mold and mentor her. For the women, their educational dreams and, if they were honest, a handsome mentor to keep them company. Everyone won.

Hi! Today I'm looking for a partner for a new story. I want to write about an informal network of handsome, rich older men who fund low-income women to come to the US to go to college. They women get all their costs covered for the last two years (so everyone is 20+), and in exchange live with and act as partners for their benefactors.

One of the sexiest things for me is an older man who has a the mentor/lover/benefactor/daddy roles all rolled into one person, and that's what I'm shooting for here. Sex and some traditional gender roles are discussed ahead of time, not surprises. And I want men who want to use their money and influence to give the women in their lives a really exceptional experience!

Let's talk a little about the men who might participate in this kind of program, and what they might look for in a partner. If you have some countries they might look at, or the college they might live close enough to for the girls to live in their house, I'd love that as an opener!

Meeting a new partner's parents and family is always nerve-wracking. Your relationship is new, things are feeling really good, and it's the first really big step that says "this isn't only about sex and fun anymore". There are real stakes if things don't go well, and someone seriously impactful making a first impression about you can feel really good if it goes right.

If you add in being in an interracial relationship to all that pressure, there's a whole other layer. You don't just have to show your new boo's parents that you aren't weird or a loser and are good for their child. There's also a layer of cultural sensitivity to attend to. There may be different traditions, different ways of talking, some lingering feelings in both directions about the fact that your partner isn't dating someone from their own background.

Nora had never been so nervous about meeting someone's parents before. She'd tried to read about ways to make things go smoothly, grilled her boyfriend within an inch of his life about how to make a good impression. He'd chucked, promised her his parents were chill. But there they were in the car, covering the last mile to the house, and she was nervous as every.

A lot was riding on a short summer trip!

Hi! Today I'm looking for a partner for a new kind of story. I love writing new relationships, and interracial couples - you'll see lots if you go back in my history! So today, I want to write both of those things. A new interracial couple, a meet-the-parents trip, and the lovely scenario that goes along with it all!

The two main ideas I have are that Nora could be:

1. Asian, from a traditional, conservative immigrant family. Her parents don't even 100% like that she has a boyfriend, let alone that he's white. But his family are SO excited he's bringing her home. The openness and familiarity will be new to her, and she'll realize her guard is up way too high. And when his mom asks if she wants help taking her bags to her boyfriend's bedroom? Culture shock!
2. Nora is white, dating a hispanic man. Her family is traditional New England, and they love each other but keep some distance. He has a multigenerational family, and they're meeting EVERYONE. I really like the idea of Nora being "adopted" into the women of this family and getting to cook with his mom and abuela, something along those lines could be really sweet!

Of course, these are just ideas and I'm open to lots of pairings and scenarios! I'm imagining these people being in college but would be perfectly happy with them being recent grads too! Regardless of his background, my personal taste in men is sort of a fit, sweet, slightly dumb, well-hung himbo who's PUMPED to be going on a trip with his girl. And if we want to throw this out the window and play Nora as queer and on this trip with a woman? Yes please!

Let's talk about how to handle what can be a tough situation well, create some fun characters, and prove you can always go home again! I can't wait to hear from you!

Bill's was the kind of restaurant that had something for just about everyone. It was close enough to the college that students who wanted a night out of their dorm could order a couple appetizers and a dessert and feel like they'd been somewhere fancy. It had enough menu options that families could go there and satisfy even the pickiest eater. And it had enough high-end options that people could take clients or real dates there and not seem like a cheapskate. All in all, a real goldilocks of a restaurant.

Like any restaurant, there were a lot of moving parts to keep Bill's on the tracks - a couple strict managers, but another who was the cool boss. A few hostesses with big smiles and bubbly personalities. Enough wait staff that no client ever felt like they were waiting. Dishwashers, bussers, and barbacks from all over the world making enough money to keep their lives moving forward - whatever that meant for them.

The owner of the place, Bill Kendall, was a big jovial man who mostly left the place alone. He trusted his employees to keep his good name going - and they did it, to the outside world.

Under the hood though, a restaurant is always a hard place to work. The expectations are high, and failure is usually pretty public. Employees at Bill's always found ways to relieve that pressure though; usually it was in ways the clients could never be allowed to see.

Hi! Today I want to write an open-ended story about a restaurant in a college town and all the shenanigans that go on there.

This could go lots of places, by design. A restaurant is a pretty flirty place, and Bill's is no different. Is the new hostess getting eyes from some of the line cooks? She's a student at the college far from home and might have just broken up with her boyfriend. Are two of the wait staff hooking up when they're supposed to be closing? Is the manager getting a little too friendly with one of the bartenders?

I like fun, light stories about interesting characters so if you want to worldbuild a restaurant with me let's talk!
