“I asked if he was okay,” Dani said. It had been a short conversation, one that he'd blown off with a cute comment and the flick of a lighter.
But Dani, well, she'd become the yin to his yang so quickly he hadn't even considered it until it was already solid, fact. Their brightness matched, their fearlessness fed off one another.
We were wild and free, takin' all the world together We were kids back then That's how we're always gonna be
Say what you wanna say And let the words fall out Honestly, I wanna see you be brave

off the record sounds amazing! i can’t wait to read it and i was wondering, are there any poc characters?
There absolutely are! In the core cast (our six rotating narrators), Sy and Caro are both Indian-American and Stella is Puerto Rican.Â
In terms of side characters that are present in the first book, Heath’s sisters Nicole and Veronica are WOC. Throughout the series, several love interests and other secondary characters are POC. We’ve made it a point to try to diversify the cast significantly.
Some very important character development exercises.
"Are you ever going to stop with the Sweet Caroline jokes?" Caro asked, pulling a face. "It's lazy creative work, really." Dani watched as she pulled her lovely, dark hair up into a loose bun at the top of her head, starting the first part of a transformation montage from glamazon to in for the night. It was something that Dani loved about having a roommate: The opportunity to see someone else with all of their armor down. The idea that someone else knew what Dani's wild bedhead looked like, or that she still had to wear a retainer at night, or that she had a well-worn stuffed owl that stayed tucked between her pillows and the wall, gave her a secret thrill.
Off the Record
“Anyone ever tell you how quickly you overwhelm those around you with details?” Heath asked, placing a finger on his page and letting the book fall closed. Sy shot him a warning look, but his shoulders slumped a little as he sank into the rigid plastic desk chair. “Anyone ever told you you’re way too dramatic?”
Off the Record
If the sky that we look upon Should tumble and fall Or the mountains should crumble to the sea I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear Just as long as you stand, stand by me

Somebody broke me once Love was a currency A shimmering balance act I think that I laughed at that And I saw your face and hands Coloured in sun and then I think I understand
Characters: A Brief Summary
Heath Averell (18) has long considered Los Angeles his playground, and he knows college is his chance to take LA - and the world - by storm. Having grown up in Santa Monica with his dads and three sisters, Heath understands the importance of where he comes from, and the necessity of breaking away from that in order to become who he wants to be. Armed with an overactive imagination, a fierce caffeine addiction, and a rose gold heart (pure gold is so last season), Heath is ready to find his new place in the world, and he knows he’ll look damn good doing it.
Danica “Dani” Vogel (18) has been transplanted from Nashville to Los Angeles for college, and is ready to retake the world—as long as she can dodge her mom’s calls, hold her therapist at arm’s length, and keep her secrets close to the chest.
Caroline Parekh (18) doesn’t know many things for certain, but she knows that she’s over the pressure that came with growing up as the youngest of three siblings in a household with high expectations. But with a class schedule full of new possibilities, the promise of a fresh start, and a few things she can’t wait to leave behind her, she’s stepping into Los Angeles from San Francisco with her head held high, ready to offer a kind smile to anyone willing to see her for who she really is.
Silas Laghari (18), better known as “Heath’s too-serious roommate” is a grounding force for Heath and those around him. Having made the trip to Los Angeles from Tallahassee, Florida, Silas is hungry to make a name for himself in this city he longs to call home.
Raleigh McKinnon (17), affectionately referred to as “Rails,” has always preferred fading into the background. Whether he’s scribbling sci-fi stories quietly in a notebook or watching The Princess Bride on repeat, Raleigh’s always looking for a way to stay comfortably in his shell, but as he gets to know Caro and Heath, he’s realizing it might be time for a change.
Stella Delgado (18) likes to keep her life organized into checklists. Get into an art program at her college of choice? Check. Befriend a ragtag group of plucky creatives? Check. Stop feeling guilty about leaving her mom and young siblings to go to college? Well—she’s working on it. Really. Always equipped with a sketchbook and a gruesome murder mystery novel, Stella is prepared for any situation—except for confronting her own past at the start of her new chapter.
Welcome to #OTR!
Off the Record is a slice of life series that follows six parts of a gloriously chaotic whole as they navigate life and love, battle their own demons, and discover what family really means along the way.
The series is currently being written, and this blog largely exists to provide updates and talk about our progress with anyone who might be interested.Â
If you love:
Gay characters who get realistic stories, varied romances, and happy endings
Stories about people overcoming trauma and coping with mental illness
Stories about families (both the kind you’re born into and the kind you choose)
Then OTR is definitely the series for you!
Watch this blog for more content, and feel free to send us questions. We will largely be posting into the “#series: off the record” tag, to avoid conflict with the general “#off the record” tag.
