I found a story on Nifty once, about a young man who was rendered totally blind after an accident. However, when he touched something with his hands, he had these flashes of clairvoyance which allowed him to "see" what that person or thing looked like. If I'd picked up that story in a bookstore, I probably would have thrown it in the trashcan without buying it first, LOL.
Currently, I'm working on a short piece about two middle school boys who struggle to define their feelings for each other as the Autumn dance event looms. They've been best friends since Kindergarten, and they know that boys don't typically hold hands or hug each other. However, neither boy has been willing to admit his true feelings for the other person...yet. One of the boys is mute and uses ASL, but I haven't decided if the other boy will have a disability of some sort.
