Derrick Solano lives in Las Vegas, New Mexico.

Derrick chose to use his real name to embrace authenticity and align with the themes of resilience and honesty present in his life and work.

Yes, all books under the name Demetri Welsh were written by Derrick Solano. They remain part of his body of work and reflect earlier chapters of his journey.

I am fully transparent about my use of AI technologies. Here’s how I incorporate them into my work: ChatGPT.com: I use it for creative content creation and regular AI-based interactions. Speechify.com: It powers the vocals for my podcast episodes. Suno.com: I use it to create realistic and emotionally impactful AI vocals for my music projects. Videobolt.net: It helps me create visually engaging and stunning music videos and podcast videos to pair with episodes. AI serves as a collaborative tool in my creative process, enhancing the quality of my work without ever replacing my authenticity, talent, or real-life experiences. Every project I create is deeply personal, with AI used solely to complement and bring my vision to life.

Yes, Derrick Solano previously used the alias Demetri Welsh. This was during a time when he was navigating personal growth and healing. Transitioning to his real name reflects his commitment to authenticity.

Derrick no longer has active social media accounts like Facebook or X (formerly Twitter). He closed these accounts because he realized he isn’t a social person and rarely used them—they simply sat there unused. Instead of maintaining platforms he didn’t connect with, Derrick decided to focus on spaces that align with his personality and goals. For updates, Derrick uses his personal website, where he shares posts and news through his blog. However, he still maintains a YouTube music channel for his completed musical works, and any new releases will continue to appear there. This reflects his preference for a quieter, more intentional digital presence while ensuring that his creative projects remain accessible.

Yes, I use a THC vape often. I have a medical marijuana card, and it helps me manage my anxiety, OCD, and ADD. It’s been a helpful tool for staying balanced and focused when I need it.

Yes, I have a son named Caleb. While we are not currently in contact, he remains in my heart, and I think of him every day.

Absolutely! My dogs are my family. Each one brings joy, love, and lessons about living in the moment. They’re my constant companions.

Curling up to a good movie, writing, or enjoying time with my dogs is how I recharge and find peace.

My beliefs are centered on the vastness of energy and the infinite nature of life. I see existence as an intricate web of creators and creations, stretching infinitely upward and outward. Rather than subscribing to a set religion or structured system, I view life as an open-ended exploration of intelligence and connection. We are immortal beings experiencing this vast, intricate universe.

What drives me is finding peace and healing from the past. My focus is on living an honest, safe, and happy life with my husband and our dogs. I’ve worked hard to break free from the chains of the past and to shed the masks I used to hide behind. Sharing my story was my way of getting it off my heart, and now I can live free, authentically, and unapologetically.

My personal experiences deeply influence everything I do—from my books to my music to my psychic readings. My life journey shapes the authenticity of my work.

While I value genuine connections, I lean toward being introverted. I cherish meaningful relationships but prefer a quiet and peaceful life.

No, I don’t. I’ve never been a fan of my singing voice or my higher-pitched speaking voice, which is why I use AI vocals to enhance and deliver the emotional depth in my work.

Absolutely, I’m all about thrillers and horror films. If it’s suspenseful, eerie, or has a good twist, I’m hooked. I love movies that can keep me on the edge of my seat or make my heart race a little. Those are the kinds of films that really grab my attention.

I prefer soft instrumental tracks or light piano music. They help me stay centered and keep the energy positive while I work or unwind. It’s all about creating a calm and uplifting vibe for me.

My weight isn’t static—it fluctuates often. Sometimes I’m around 150 pounds, while other times I can be closer to 170. It depends on what phase I’m in: whether I’m working out consistently or taking it easy, eating healthy or indulging. It’s all about balance and where I am in life at the moment.

No, I don’t use drugs. I experimented with them earlier in life, but that’s long behind me now. I focus on keeping my mind and body clear.

Honestly, I eat whatever I feel like. My husband and I don’t restrict ourselves—he’s an incredible cook, and I trust whatever he makes. We’ve been exploring spicy foods recently, and Anthony’s creations never fail to amaze me. Our meals are about enjoyment and connection, not rules.

Shrimp and pasta are my absolute favorites. It’s the perfect combination of comfort and indulgence for me.

Yes, I do. I have tattoos on my neck and arms, but I had them digitally removed for my professional headshots. Eventually, I plan to have them laser removed entirely.

Yes, I am happily married to Anthony, who has been my rock, partner, and unwavering source of love and support.

No, I’m not religious. I believe that energy is infinite and life is boundless. There’s always a higher, more intelligent, and more powerful being—like those who created us, then those who created them, and so on. I don’t fit neatly into a religious box or specific belief system. I’m far too open-minded for that and see us all as immortal beings navigating an endless journey.

Yes, I am. I started losing my hair at 20, and now I shave my head completely because it doesn’t grow in thick on top.

My eyes are blue.

Yes, I am proudly gay and believe in living authentically as part of my journey to self-acceptance and resilience.

Writing is my favorite hobby—it’s how I express myself and process my experiences. I also love spending quality time with my dogs, who are my biggest source of joy.

I manage my anxiety and OCD/ADD with a combination of tools. I use a THC vape daily, as it helps me stay balanced and focused. I’m also prescribed fluoxetine, which helps manage my depression and anxiety on a daily basis. Together, these approaches support my mental and emotional well-being, allowing me to maintain a peaceful and authentic lifestyle.

No, I don’t consume alcohol—not even a little. I used to be a heavy drinker, but as part of my healing journey while releasing my books and music, I committed to living my most authentic life. Quitting alcohol was a big part of that, and now I won’t even allow it in my home because of the problems it can cause.

I’m a big fan of scary movies—whether it’s sci-fi, thrillers, or anything that can really draw me in and deliver a good jump scare. I don’t go for comedies, romances, or anything too lighthearted; thrillers are definitely where my interest lies.

My taste in music is pretty eclectic. I enjoy light piano music, classical pieces, alternative rock, some country, and a bit of pop. When I’m working or relaxing, I usually go for soft instrumentals to maintain a high vibration and a peaceful atmosphere.

Honestly, I don’t enjoy traveling and prefer to be home with Anthony and our dogs. My home is my sanctuary, where I find peace and happiness. I rarely travel because being with my family in a safe, comforting environment means everything to me.

Not at all. Politics isn’t my area—I honestly don’t understand it and think both sides are ultimately working for the same agenda behind the scenes. I leave that to Anthony; he’s the politician of the family. For me, it’s just not something I care to dive into.

I am not in contact with my biological or adopted family. My journey has been about creating my own chosen family and living authentically.

Yes, Derrick is open to tailoring a reading to your specific needs, within the scope of his services on Fiverr.

Quickly and efficiently. I strive to start working on readings as soon as an order is placed, ensuring the energy is fresh and the questions remain clear in my client's mind. This approach enhances the accuracy and depth of the reading. While there may be occasional delays if I’m away from my office—perhaps eating with Anthony or asleep—I am committed to beginning sessions promptly upon returning. Typically, readings are completed within an hour or two during office hours, and at most, within 24 hours when I’m unavailable. Even then, it’s rare for a session to take the full 24 hours; most are delivered in detailed reports much sooner. My priority is to provide you with a thorough and transformative experience as quickly as possible.

Derrick offers bold and transformative psychic readings exclusively through Fiverr. These include standard psychic readings, blind readings, and energy cleanses. Visit the Fiverr profile for details.

All sessions are provided as detailed written reports delivered through Fiverr messages. Live sessions (video or phone) are not offered.

For me, psychic messages don’t feel like guesses or fleeting thoughts—they’re a pull, a clarity that resonates deeply. They show up with a certainty I’ve learned to trust, even when they challenge me. My readings are never vague; they’re specific, direct, and often touch on things clients didn’t even know they needed to hear. Over time, my work has shown me that the truth has a way of revealing itself when you trust the connection.

I’ve always had these abilities, but life forced me to develop them in ways I never anticipated. Growing up, I couldn’t ignore the insights and impressions that came to me—they were as natural as breathing. As I faced hardships, these abilities became a survival tool, sharpening with every challenge. Today, they’re not just a part of my life—they’re a way I help others navigate their own paths.

Energy doesn’t need proximity. Whether I’m sitting with someone face-to-face or receiving their question online, I’m able to connect with the energy they carry. I don’t rely on physical cues or live interactions; I tap directly into the energy of their situation, which speaks louder than any words or body language ever could. My written reports allow me to focus entirely on that energy, delivering the clarity people come to me for.

I’ve been psychic my entire life. It’s not something I chose or stumbled into—it’s something I’ve carried with me, something that was refined through a life full of trauma, survival, and resilience. My abilities aren’t a parlor trick or a learned skill; they’re a part of who I am. Life didn’t just hand me intuition—it forged it. Every reading I give is rooted in that raw, undeniable connection I’ve spent years honing.

My services are rooted in raw authenticity. I don’t use theatrics, tools, or vague language—I give clear, direct insights that are actionable and transformative. Every reading is deeply personal, focused entirely on the client’s unique energy and questions. What sets me apart is my refusal to sugarcoat or hold back. I’m not here to tell you what you want to hear; I’m here to deliver the truth in a way that empowers you to move forward.

I believe in delivering the truth, no matter how difficult it might be. Life didn’t sugarcoat anything for me, and I won’t sugarcoat it for my clients. If I see something challenging, I’ll share it with compassion and honesty, along with guidance to help navigate it. My role isn’t to tell people what they want to hear—it’s to give them clarity and direction, even when the truth is hard to face.

Years of experience have taught me the importance of energetic boundaries. Before every session, I ground myself and set the intention to be a channel, not a sponge. After readings, I cleanse my energy, ensuring I don’t carry the weight of someone else’s situation. This is as much about self-care as it is about maintaining clarity in my work—if I’m drained, I can’t give my clients the focus and guidance they deserve.

Caring for your canvas is simple. Keep it out of direct sunlight to preserve its colors, and if it gets dusty, just wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth.

Once you place an order, it typically takes Printful about 2–7 business days to produce the canvas. Shipping times vary depending on your location, but I’ll keep you updated every step of the way.

I hope you’ll love your canvas print as much as I loved creating the art behind it. If there’s an issue, reach out to me directly, and I’ll work with Printful to make it right.

Each piece of my original artwork is printed directly onto canvas fabric. The canvas is then stretched over a sturdy wooden frame, giving it a professional, gallery-ready finish.

I personally oversee every piece of art I create. While Printful handles the printing and shipping, I’ve partnered with them because their technology and materials meet my high standards for quality. Your print will faithfully reflect the heart and soul I pour into my work.

The artwork itself is my original creation, but you can choose from a variety of sizes to best suit your space. If you have any specific requests, feel free to reach out, and I’ll see what’s possible.

The frames are 1.25 inches thick, which adds a solid, substantial feel to the artwork. It’s the kind of depth that makes the art stand out without needing a bulky frame.

Absolutely. Every canvas print comes with pre-installed hanging hardware, so you can hang it up and enjoy it right away.

I offer a range of sizes for my canvas prints so you can find the perfect fit for your space. Whether you’re looking for a centerpiece or something smaller to complement your decor, there’s an option for you.

Every canvas print is crafted using high-quality, fade-resistant materials. This ensures that the vibrant colors and details of my original artwork are preserved beautifully and last for years to come.

You can explore Derrick’s music on his YouTube Music Channel or find links to his albums on the Music Page.

My music is raw, emotional, and deeply human. It’s not about chasing trends—it’s about telling stories that resonate with people who’ve been through hell and back. From anthems of resilience like “I Won’t Break” to reflective tracks like “Ashes and Gold,” my songs are designed to inspire, challenge, and connect. Each album is more than a collection of songs—it’s a manifesto for anyone who refuses to stay down.

Yes, Derrick uses cutting-edge AI technology for vocals, pairing them with his lyrics and melodies. While AI enhances the emotional delivery, the creative heart of every song is 100% Derrick’s.

For me, it wasn’t about taking shortcuts—it was about breaking limitations. I’ve always been critical of my own voice, but I didn’t want that to stop my music from being heard. Using AI vocals allowed me to create something that resonates emotionally and connects deeply with listeners. Every lyric and melody is mine; the AI is just the tool that brought it to life in a way my own voice couldn’t.

My music is an extension of my books—it’s storytelling in its purest form. Every lyric reflects a piece of my life, from the darkest moments to the victories. For years, I held back because I didn’t believe my voice could do the songs justice. But with AI-powered vocals, I finally gave my lyrics the voice they deserved. My music isn’t just sound; it’s survival, resilience, and raw emotion brought to life.

Derrick has written several books, including I Won’t Break, Vexture, Naked, GRIT, and Kinesis. Each reflects pivotal moments in his life and offers insight into resilience, healing, and personal growth.

All of Derrick’s books are available in both formats. Check out the Books Page for links to purchase.

Every word I’ve written is rooted in my own journey. From being abandoned as a child to fighting addiction, reclaiming my identity, and navigating the chaos of survival, my books are deeply personal. They’re not just memoirs—they’re guides for anyone struggling with trauma, resilience, or finding their purpose. Each book offers not only my story but the lessons I’ve learned along the way.

My books are unapologetically real. I don’t sugarcoat the hard parts or wrap everything up with a pretty bow. Life isn’t always neat, and neither are my stories. What makes my books stand out is their honesty—they’re about finding strength in the mess, embracing imperfection, and creating something unbreakable from life’s hardest moments. If you’re looking for raw truth and actionable resilience, you’ll find it here.

My books were born out of survival. Each one is a reflection of the life I’ve lived—the pain, the resilience, the moments that broke me, and the strength I found to rebuild. Writing was my way of making sense of it all, of giving my scars a voice. My books aren’t just stories; they’re raw, unfiltered truths meant to inspire anyone who’s ever felt like life knocked them down one too many times.
