When Alex takes a free personality test on a whim, he never expects it to lead him down a rabbit hole of strange drills, relentless sales pitches, and bizarre encounters with fervent believers. What starts as a self-improvement course quickly spirals into a surreal experience of rigid rules, hypnotic training exercises, and a so-called "Bridge to Total Freedom"-with an ever-growing price tag. As Alex questions the Church's motives and its promises of supernatural abilities, he finds himself in a high-pressure game of persuasion, secrecy, and manipulation. But nothing prepares him for the ultimate twist-an encounter with the ghost of L. Ron Hubbard himself. Witty, satirical, and darkly humorous, Going Clearer is a sharp critique of cult-like organizations and the lengths they'll go to keep their followers under control.…

Jules works freelance for various publications after a burnout that literally brought her to her knees. She gets asked to "interview" for a role in Tom's team, especially the German speaking market (we just assume that kinda role exists). She is skeptical to work for him out of fear to be reeled in re: Scientology. Also, due to a VERY ugly breakup with a previous client which led to her compensating her anger with more and more work which eventually caused the burnout, she has one rule: "I don't date my clients!"But once she gets to work with him, and Tom gets to know her better, they start to understand each other. However - there's the anti psychiatry stance of Scientology which will be forever between them. But will it really? Can Tom win her heart and will Jules be able to untangle his Scientology web?****** DISCLAIMER: this is purely a product of my imagination. Aside from the original characters - Jules, Nora and some others - I don't own any of the people in the story. I also don't own the songs that are being quoted at the end of each chapter. Also, the story was in the making and being written already before some more recent events happened. Therefore, the timeline in the story at the time of writing is different from actual, real life events (e.g. Oscar Nominees Luncheon). ******PS: if you're looking for smut - go elsewhere ;)…
